We can submit claims on the spot with our HICAPS terminal.
DVA white or gold card holders with a valid GP referral are eligible for bulk-billed sessions.

Our physiotherapists have extensive experience in treating injuries resulting from workplace incidents or motor vehicle accidents. Please call the clinic for more information.
The clinic is located on the Upper Ground Floor of MarketPlace Shopping Centre, opposite Woolworths.
It can be a little daunting seeing a new provider for the first time, but not to worry, our team is here to support your recovery. Initial appointments will usually involve the physio getting to know you a bit, taking history, and assessing the injury. After that, they will work with you to create an appropriate treatment plan to help you get back to 100%. If possible, wear comfortable clothing that doesn’t restrict movement too much to make assessment easier.
If you need to cancel or reschedule an appointment, please call or email the clinic. We have a 6 hour cancellation policy to ensure that we are able to accommodate any clients on our waiting list. Late cancellations may incur a fee of 50% of the treatment cost.
If you have any other questions, or are not quite sure what you need, our friendly reception team is available 8am-6.30pm Monday to Friday and 8am – 12.30pm Saturdays to help point you in the right direction.
