Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?
No, you don’t need a referral to see a physio in Australia. However, your GP may refer you if you’re eligible for a Chronic Disease Management (CDM) plan, which can provide Medicare rebates.
Is physiotherapy covered by Medicare or private health insurance?
Yes, physiotherapy may be covered. Medicare rebates are available under a GP CDM plan. Most private health insurance extras also provide rebates for physiotherapy sessions. Give us a call and we’ll be happy to check what you can claim.
I'm not an elite athlete. Can you still help me?
Absolutely. Whether you’re a competitive runner, a local team player, or a weekend gardener aiming for a personal best, our principles remain the same. We apply our specialist knowledge of load management and biomechanics to all active individuals in Mornington who want to recover quickly and prevent the injury from recurring.
What should I wear or bring to my first appointment?
Please wear comfortable clothing (shorts or a sports top) that allows us to easily access and assess the injured area. If your injury is sport-specific, it can also be helpful to bring your gear.
