Physiotherapy is a branch of healthcare that focuses on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders related to movement and physical function. Physiotherapy aims to help individuals regain, maintain or improve their physical abilities, function and mobility through a range of techniques and exercises.
Physiotherapy Service covered by different schemes:
EPC is a Medicare initiative that provides eligible patients with up to five bulk-billed allied health services per year. This includes physiotherapy services provided by registered physiotherapists. To be eligible, patients must have a chronic condition that has lasted or is likely to last for at least six months. A GP referral is required for EPC services.
Work Cover is a workers' compensation scheme that provides support and financial assistance to workers who are injured or become ill as a result of their work. Physiotherapy is one of the allied health services that may be covered under Work Cover, and it is often used to help injured workers regain their physical abilities and return to work. Eligibility for Work Cover physiotherapy services will depend on the specific requirements of the relevant state or territory.
Age care (HCP) stands for Home Care Packages and is a program that provides support and assistance to elderly individuals who wish to continue living independently at home. Physiotherapy services may be included as part of an individual's HCP if it is deemed necessary to help them maintain or improve their physical function and mobility.
We are a registered NDIS provider. NDIS is a government-funded scheme that provides support and funding for individuals with permanent and significant disabilities. Physiotherapy may be included as part of an individual's NDIS plan if it is deemed necessary to help them improve their physical function, mobility and quality of life.
Chiropractic treatment is based on the belief that the body's structure, particularly the spine, affects its overall function and health. Chiropractors aim to restore proper alignment and movement of the spine and other joints to improve the body's function and promote natural healing.
Common conditions that chiropractors may treat include neck pain, back pain, headaches, and joint pain. They may also provide advice on nutrition, exercise, and other lifestyle factors that can affect overall health.
Massage therapy is a form of healthcare that involves the manual manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. The goal of massage therapy is to promote relaxation, reduce stress, relieve pain, and improve overall physical function.
Massage therapy can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal pain, stress-related disorders, sports injuries, and chronic pain. It can also be used to promote overall wellness and relaxation.
Massage therapy has been shown to have a number of potential benefits, including reducing stress and anxiety, improving circulation, lowering blood pressure, promoting healing and recovery from injuries, and improving range of motion and flexibility.
