Question 1

Can physiotherapy be done at home?

Accepted Answer

It depends: some physiotherapy can be done at home (your physiotherapist is likely to give you exercises to practise at home anyway); but some treatments may need to be carried out at your physiotherapist’s clinic.

Question 2

Are there physiotherapists available on Sunday near me?

Accepted Answer

Some physiotherapy clinics offer Sunday appointments. Browse Fresha to find providers near you with Sunday availability.

Question 3

How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

Accepted Answer

This really depends on your need and level of progress. Minor injuries may take 2-3 sessions to relieve; soft tissue injuries could take longer (6-8 weeks), and severe or chronic conditions could take two or more months. Physiotherapy is always tailored to individual needs, so it’s best to ask your physiotherapist how many sessions you’re likely to require.

Question 4

Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?

Accepted Answer

In Australia, you do not need a GP referral to see a physiotherapist privately. A GP referral may be required for Medicare-funded sessions under a Chronic Disease Management plan. Private health insurance typically covers physiotherapy with no referral needed.

Question 5

What is physiotherapy and how can it help me?

Accepted Answer

Physiotherapy uses movement, manual therapy, and exercise to promote recovery from injury, illness or disability. If you visit a physiotherapist, you’re likely to be encouraged to support your recovery by doing set exercises at home.

Question 6
