What Does Physiotherapy Involve?

By looking at how your body moves, your physiotherapist may identify the underlying cause of your concern and tailor a treatment plan to suit your goals and lifestyle.

Your treatment plan may include:

Manual Therapy

Soft manipulation of the muscles may assist in relieving pain and supporting greater ease of movement.

Exercise Programs

A personalised exercise programme designed around your needs may help you work toward greater strength and flexibility.

Shockwave Therapy

Through the application of high-energy sound waves, shockwave therapy may help stimulate tissue repair and support recovery.

Therapeutic Ultrasound

Sound waves applied to the affected area may help support tissue recovery and assist in managing inflammation.

Dry Needling

Dry needling uses fine needles directed at specific muscle points to help release tension in tight muscles and may assist in reducing discomfort.

Clinical Reformer Pilates

Clinical reformer pilates may help improve movement patterns and support long-term recovery.

Living with pain doesn’t have to be your only option.

Mosman Physiotherapy Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a GP referral to see a physiotherapist?

You do not need a referral to get started. You can book directly with our physiotherapists at any time.

How long is each physiotherapy session?

Initial consultations typically run for 45 to 60 minutes, while follow-up sessions are usually between 30 and 45 minutes, depending on your individual treatment needs.

What should I wear to my physio appointment?

Comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and provides easy access to the affected area is best. Activewear or loose-fitting clothes are a great option.

Does private health insurance cover physiotherapy sessions?

If physiotherapy is included in your extras cover, you may be eligible to claim a rebate on the spot through HICAPS at our Cremorne and Balgowlah clinics.

Can I use a Medicare Chronic Disease Management plan for physiotherapy?

Yes. We accept Medicare CDM/EPC referrals from your GP. With a valid referral, you may claim a Medicare rebate for up to five sessions per calendar year. Please note there will still be a small gap fee.

Does shockwave therapy attract an additional fee?

Where shockwave therapy is recommended as part of your care, a $30 surcharge per session will be applied.

Can I attend DX Physio for a workers' compensation or CTP claim?

We do accept both workers’ compensation and CTP claims. Please ensure you bring your claim number and any relevant documentation to your first appointment.

How often should I come in for treatment?

It depends on your condition and goals. After your initial assessment, your physiotherapist will provide a tailored treatment plan and suggest a recommended visit frequency.

Does the physiotherapy consultation include manual therapy?

Yes. Hands-on (manual) therapy is included as part of your physiotherapy consultation if clinically required.

What does dry needling feel like?

Dry needling involves the insertion of fine needles into targeted muscle points, which some people may find mildly uncomfortable. Your physiotherapist will check in with you regularly throughout the session to help ensure you remain as comfortable as possible.

Do your physiotherapists manage sports injuries?

At DX Physio, our physiotherapists have experience assessing and managing a wide range of sports and exercise-related injuries. Whether you’re an elite athlete or simply looking to stay active, we’ll work with you to create a personalised care plan to support your recovery.

Can physiotherapy play a role in preventing injuries?

Physiotherapy isn’t only for managing existing injuries; it may also play a role in helping you understand your body, improve your posture, and move more efficiently. This may help prevent future injuries.

Can physiotherapy help me maintain a healthy, active lifestyle?

Physiotherapy is not just for when something goes wrong. Regular physiotherapy sessions may help you move more efficiently, manage muscle tightness, and support improved posture, contributing to a healthier and more active life over the long term.
