Do I need a referral to see a physio? +
No. You can book directly for any private appointment. A referral is only needed for specific schemes like WorkCover, DVA, or a Medicare care plan (EPC).
Do you treat sports injuries? +
Yes - sports and recurring injuries are the core of what I do. I spent 3 years as an AFL trainer and I've worked as a physio in semi-pro football for 7 years.
What suburbs do you cover? +
The clinic is in Hampstead Gardens, serving the inner north-east - Klemzig, Greenacres, Northgate, Walkerville, Vale Park and surrounds. Same-week appointments and free parking on site.
What's The Comeback Code? +
A 12-week, one-to-one rebuild for people stuck in recurring injury or decline. It's the flagship program - a measured path back to a body you can trust.
Can physio actually help long-term back pain? +
Usually, yes. Recurring pain is most often a capacity problem, not permanent damage - and capacity can be rebuilt. That's exactly the kind of case I focus on.
Do you offer telehealth? +
Yes - for assessment, education and program reviews, telehealth works well when getting in isn't practical. Some things still need hands-on, and I'll tell you honestly when that's the case.
Can I claim on private health insurance? +
Yes. Physiotherapy is claimable on most private health extras, and there's HICAPS on site - so you claim on the spot and only pay the gap. Just bring your health fund card.
What should I bring to my first appointment? +
Comfortable clothing you can move in, any relevant scans or reports, and a referral only if you're on WorkCover, DVA or a care plan.
