Creating independence for quality of life.

As we are a Private Allied Health Practice a fee will be charged at the end of each appointment.

However, we have a variety of options and plans to suit your healthcare needs.

.

Medicare Rebates

We are fully accredited and covered under Medicare Chronic Disease Management (CDM, formerly EPC) plans for Exercise Physiology or Physiotherapy.

Your CDM plan from your General Practitioner (GP) will assist with the costs of the appointments.

You may eligible for up to 5 rebates a year to the value of $290 (each rebate value $58).

Private Health Rebates

We are accredited and covered with most Private Health insurance companies (rebates vary depending on your level of insurance cover).

Please check with your Private Health Insurer that you are covered for Exercise Physiology and/or Massage Therapy.

If you wish to utilise your private health for group classes, please check with your private health Insurer that they cover group classes under Exercise Physiology, as some health insurers do not.

 

Defence Veteran Affairs (DVA)

You may receive Exercise Physiology or Physiotherapy services if you have an assessed clinical need and a:

Veteran Gold Card; or Veteran White Card and your treatment is for an accepted service-related condition. And you: have a chronic disease; or are recovering after a hospital stay for treatment of a major injury or illness.

You will require a referral to our Exercise Physiologists under the Medicare Benefits Scheme (MBS) from your:
