What We Treat
Our Approach
Physiotherapy services involve 1 on 1 consultations in our Putney or Willoughby clinics, which include thorough systematic physical assessments, an accurate explanation and education about your diagnosis, and a tailored treatment plan.
We pride ourselves on personalised care, using evidence-based practices to ensure optimal patient outcomes.
Initial Assessment
The initial Physiotherapy consultation includes a thorough assessment, discussing your history and reason for the visit, followed by a physical examination of your injury.
We assess range of motion, flexibility, functional movements, and strength to diagnose your condition and create a personalised management plan.
Treatment Plan
We use hands-on therapies like soft tissue massage, manual therapy, and dry needling, complemented by taping and strapping services for support.
Our Prices
We offer initial, standard, and extended consultations, with on-the-spot health fund claims through our HICAPS terminal.
Accepted health funds include HCF, Medibank Private, Bupa, and NIB. Bring your health fund card for immediate claims, and pay any gaps via Cash, Visa, MasterCard, or EFTPOS.
