Assessment-led physiotherapy in Melbourne. You leave your first session with a diagnosis in plain language, a written plan, and a timeframe — not a vague “come back next week”. In our rooms, or at your home.

Back pain
Acute episodes and long-standing pain. Assessment first, then a plan you can actually follow.
We separate joint, disc and muscular drivers — they don’t respond to the same plan.
Neck & headaches
Neck-driven pain and tension headaches. Treatment aimed at the cause, not the symptom.
We test whether the headache reproduces from the neck before treating it as one.
Shoulder
Rotator cuff, impingement, post-dislocation. Staged loading back to full range.
We check cuff strength, scapular control and range separately — each changes the plan.
Knee
Ligament, meniscus and tendon injuries — from first steps to return to sport.
We test ligament, meniscus and tendon load separately — they need different plans.
Sports injury
Injuries assessed properly, with clear criteria before you return to play.
We set the return criteria at the first session, so the finish line is never vague.
Post-surgical rehab
Structured rehab that follows your surgeon’s protocol, week by week.
We work from your surgeon’s protocol and tell you which week you’re actually in.
Chronic pain
Long-term pain needs a different approach: graded activity, education, honest timeframes.
We look at load tolerance and what flares it, not just where it hurts.
Workplace injury
WorkCover and TAC claims accepted. We handle the paperwork with you.
We assess the demands of your actual job, and write the plan around getting back to it.
Your first session maps the problem — history, movement testing, and a working diagnosis explained in plain language.
You get a written plan: what we'll do in the room, what you'll do at home, and the timeframe we're working to.
Treatment and load progress as you do. We retest against the plan, so you can see the change — not just feel it.
Book online or call. Bring your health fund card, and a referral only if you have one — you don’t need one to see us.
We take your history, test how you move, and find the mechanism behind the pain. You’ll understand what we found before you leave the room.
You get it in writing: what we’ll do here, what you’ll do at home, and what we’re aiming for.
Claim your rebate on the spot through HICAPS. You pay the gap, and you know exactly when you’re back.
Power, in motion — the launch film.
You see your physiotherapist for the entire session. Assessment comes before treatment, every time — and you’ll never be asked to keep coming back without a reason you understand.

Some people recover better at home — after surgery, with mobility limits, or when getting to a clinic is the hardest part of the day. Mobile appointments run the same way as in-rooms: full assessment, plain-language diagnosis, a written plan.
Most people arrive already holding a claim number, a plan or a level of cover. We work with all of them, and we handle the reporting that goes with each — so the admin is our job, not yours.
WorkCover
WorkCover claims accepted with a valid claim number.
We treat accepted WorkCover claims and handle the reporting and correspondence with your insurer and case manager, so the paperwork is not another job on your list.
- Bring your claim number and insurer details to the first appointment
- No referral needed to book — only Medicare care plans require one
- We write to your insurer and case manager, so the correspondence is our job
- You leave with the plan in writing, and that plan is what goes in the report

TAC
TAC claims accepted with a valid claim number.
Transport Accident Commission claims are treated the same way — bring your claim number and we manage the rest with TAC directly.
- Bring your TAC claim number to the first appointment
- We correspond with the Transport Accident Commission directly
- The claim changes the paperwork, not the assessment
- History, movement testing and the mechanism explained before you leave the room

Power Physiotherapy is a private practice. We accept self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants; we are not an NDIA-registered provider. Rebates and entitlements are set by your fund, insurer or plan — we’ll tell you what applies before you book, not after. Booking, deposit and cancellation policy.
Do I need a referral?
No. Physiotherapists are primary practitioners, so you can book directly. A referral is only needed for Medicare-subsidised care plans — WorkCover and TAC patients just need their claim number.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothes you can move in. Shorts help for lower-limb problems. There’s a private room if you need to change.
How long is a session?
Initial consults run longer than follow-ups so there’s time for a full assessment. Exact times and fees are shown when you book.
Can I claim on the spot?
Yes. We process health fund rebates through HICAPS at the desk — bring your card and pay only the gap.
What’s the cancellation policy?
Free to move or cancel with more than 24 hours' notice. Inside 24 hours, or if an appointment isn't attended, 50% of the appointment fee applies — it's a genuine estimate of what the unfilled time costs, not a penalty. We don't charge it where the reason was outside your control, and nothing is charged without contacting you first. A deposit confirms your booking and comes off the cost of the appointment.
Can I use my NDIS plan?
Yes, if your plan is self-managed or plan-managed. We're not an NDIA-registered provider, so agency-managed plans can't be used with us. We provide physiotherapy as clinical allied health, including functional capacity assessment and the written reporting that goes with it.
Do you treat WorkCover and TAC patients?
Yes. Bring your claim number and insurer details to your first visit and we’ll take it from there.
Do you do home visits?
Yes. Mobile appointments run the same as in-rooms: full assessment, diagnosis in plain language, and a written plan. Tell us where you are when you book and we’ll confirm what’s available.
Is a mobile appointment different from coming in?
The assessment is the same. The advantage is that we set your rehab up in the space you’ll actually do it in. Some equipment-based treatment is clinic-only, and we’ll tell you upfront if that applies.
Will it hurt?
Assessment shouldn’t be painful, and we’ll tell you before we do anything that might be uncomfortable. You can stop at any point.
What if I’ve already had physio that didn’t work?
Bring what you’ve tried. Knowing what didn’t help is genuinely useful — it narrows the mechanism faster.
Didn’t find your question? Ask us when you book — it takes two minutes.
No referral needed
Physiotherapists are primary practitioners. Book directly.
No lock-in plans
You’ll never be asked to commit to a block of sessions to start.
Straight answers
If physiotherapy isn’t the right fit for your problem, we’ll tell you and point you to who is.
