      What is Aquatic Physiotherapy? (Hydrotherapy) Physiotherapy exercises in water

      Aquatic physiotherapy is a gentler form of exercise compared with water aerobics. The water provides a low-gravity, relaxing environment in which to exercise. It is not necessary to be able to swim. Elizabeth will tailor your treatment specifically for you. More information is available from our office or please read the attached information sheet.


      Do I need a Doctor's referral to see a Physiotherapist?

      No referral is required for Private patients Work Cover, Insurance or Department of Veterans' Affairs patients must have a doctors referral.


      Do you Bulk Bill?

      Normally, Medicare does not cover Physiotherapy, but if your doctor considers that you have an ongoing chronic condition, then you can be put on a Care Plan and receive up to 5 services per calendar year which can be shared between Physiotherapy and other Allied Health Practitioners. We gladly except Medicare Chronic Disease Management Plans. We charge our fee for the first visit and then bulk bill the remaining visits on the plan.


      How many visits / treatments do I need to attend?

      The number of visits to a physiotherapist will depend on the severity of the injury / condition, and the progress of your recovery. At your initial consultation, the therapist can usually give you an idea of what your treatment will consist of and how long it may be necessary to attend the practice for treatments and also how long you will have to continue exercising independently at home.


      Do you treat children with Cerebral Palsy?

      Yes we treat children with Cerebral Palsy and other conditions Elizabeth works in conjunction with other therapists from Education Qld; Qld Paediatric Rehabilitation Service; Qld Cerebral Palsy League and gladly excepts any Federal/State Government Health Scheme, such as, Better Start for Children with Disability Initiative.


      Do you treat patients with incontinence issues?

      Yes, both male and female pelvic floor conditions. The appointment time needs to be longer, so please inform reception when making your appointment, that it is for pelvic floor, so that the appropriate amount of time is allocated.
