What is Involved in a Physiotherapy Session?
Your physiotherapist will assess how your body moves to help identify the underlying cause of your concern, and from there, develop a treatment plan tailored to your individual goals and lifestyle.
Depending on your needs, treatments may include:
Manual Therapy
Soft manipulation of the muscles may assist in relieving pain and supporting greater ease of movement.
Exercise Programs
A tailored exercise programme may assist in building strength and improving flexibility.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave therapy delivers high-energy sound waves to targeted areas, which may help stimulate tissue and assist in supporting your 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 applied to targeted muscle points in an effort to release tight muscles and reduce pain.
Clinical Reformer Pilates
Clinical reformer pilates may help improve movement patterns and support long-term recovery.
Support for Your Pelvic and Women’s Health at Any Age
Ongoing back discomfort, bladder leakage or reduced core strength after childbirth can affect everyday activities. Pelvic pain and pain during intercourse can also influence your relationships and sense of wellbeing, and support is available for these concerns.
Your women’s health needs are individual, whether they relate to pelvic health, recovery or movement. At DX Physio, our pelvic health physios take the time to understand your experience and personalise your women’s health physio care to support comfortable movement, greater strength and confidence.
How Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy Can Support Your Health
Not everyone who ends up seeing our pelvic floor physiotherapists comes to us with a pelvic complaint. Many women arrive with ongoing back or hip pain that just never seems to go away, having already worked through stretches, massage or general physio and found that the pain keeps coming back.
Looking beyond the painful area may reveal a role for the pelvic floor. Changes in pelvic muscle strength, tension or coordination can occur after pregnancy, menopause or surgery and may influence the way you hold yourself, move and breathe. A pelvic floor assessment may clarify how these muscles relate to your symptoms, supporting tailored treatment and exercise planning.
Pain doesn’t have to get in the way of living well.

Kurraba Point Physio FAQs
Do I need a GP referral to see a physiotherapist?
No referral is needed. You can book directly with our physiotherapists at any time.
What is the usual length of a physiotherapy session?
Your initial consultation will generally take between 45 and 60 minutes. Follow-up sessions are typically 30 to 45 minutes, depending on your 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?
Should your extras cover include physiotherapy, you may claim a rebate immediately via HICAPS at either our Cremorne or Balgowlah clinic.
Are Medicare CDM or EPC referrals accepted?
Medicare CDM/EPC referrals from your GP are welcome at DX Physio. A valid referral may allow you to claim a Medicare rebate for up to five sessions per calendar year, though please note a small gap fee will still apply.
Is there an additional cost for shockwave therapy?
If shockwave therapy is recommended as part of your treatment plan, a $30 surcharge will apply per session.
Are workers' compensation and CTP claims accepted at DX Physio?
Yes. We accept both workers’ compensation and CTP claims. Please bring your claim number and relevant documentation to your first appointment.
How often should I come in for treatment?
The frequency of your visits will depend on your condition and goals. Following your initial assessment, your physiotherapist will provide a tailored treatment plan that includes a recommended visit schedule.
Is hands-on manual therapy part of the physiotherapy consultation?
Hands-on manual therapy is included as part of your physiotherapy consultation where it is clinically appropriate.
Is dry needling uncomfortable?
The dry needling process uses fine needles inserted into specific muscle points, and while some people may experience mild discomfort, your physiotherapist will check in with you throughout the session to help manage your comfort.
Can physiotherapy help with sports and exercise-related injuries?
Our physiotherapists are experienced in assessing and managing a variety of sports and exercise-related injuries. Whether you compete at a high level or simply enjoy staying active, we’ll develop a personalised care plan designed to support your recovery and help you return to the activities you love.
Physiotherapy isn’t just about addressing current injuries. It may also help you gain a better understanding of your body, support improved posture, and encourage more efficient movement patterns, which may help in reducing the risk of future injuries.
Physiotherapy isn’t only for when an injury occurs. Attending regular physiotherapy sessions may help support more efficient movement, assist in managing muscle tightness, and contribute to improved posture, helping you maintain a healthier and more active life long term.
Women’s health physio is a focused area of practice covering pelvic health, pregnancy and postnatal recovery, menopause, and the pain or continence concerns that come with them. Our pelvic health physios see women across Sydney at every stage of life, from first-time mums to women navigating menopause and beyond.
Women’s health physiotherapy covers a wider range of concerns, including pregnancy, postnatal recovery, menopause, pelvic health and related pain or continence issues. Pelvic floor physiotherapy is more specifically centred on the muscles that support the bladder, bowel and pelvic organs. The two areas can overlap, so a women’s health appointment may include a pelvic floor assessment where it is relevant to your symptoms and goals.
The first visit includes a detailed discussion about your symptoms, health history, any births or surgeries, what has changed and the outcomes you hope to work towards. We will assess movement and function, then talk through a plan tailored to your circumstances. Nothing will happen without your consent, and questions are welcome throughout the appointment.

If you have a chronic condition management plan from your GP, Medicare may cover up to five allied health sessions each calendar year when you are referred for physiotherapy. The five sessions are a combined allowance across the allied health services under that plan, and your GP will advise whether you meet the eligibility requirements. A private health fund may also contribute if physiotherapy is included in your extras cover. The contribution varies according to your cover and annual limits, so confirm the details with your fund before your appointment.
Physiotherapy can address concerns such as pelvic pain, pregnancy-related discomfort, postnatal recovery, bladder concerns, bowel changes, incontinence and prolapse, as well as back and neck pain, sports injuries, joint pain, muscle strains, headaches and rehabilitation following surgery or injury. Treatment is planned to suit your individual symptoms, needs and goals.
For bladder leakage, urinary incontinence or pelvic pain, physiotherapy may begin by looking at how the pelvic floor muscles work, including their strength, tension, timing and coordination with movement. Support may involve pelvic floor training, guidance about bladder habits, breathing techniques and exercises selected for your needs.
Depending on your circumstances, assessment may involve a physical examination. An internal assessment may be discussed where clinically appropriate, but it will only occur after you have given informed consent. Care may also address bowel symptoms, pain during intercourse and pelvic organ prolapse, with treatment tailored to what you need and feel comfortable with.
In most cases, you can book a physiotherapy appointment without a referral from other health professionals. Depending on your needs, treatment may include education, tailored exercises, movement strategies and manual therapy. Physiotherapy may also be eligible for rebates through some private health funds, depending on your level of cover. We recommend checking directly with your provider.
Physiotherapy isn’t only for when something goes wrong. Regular physiotherapy may help you move more efficiently, manage muscle tightness, and improve posture, supporting a healthier, more active life long term.A physiotherapist guides each class through structured exercises that may support strength, mobility, balance and everyday movement. Sessions can be modified for different abilities, health needs and goals, helping you take part safely and with confidence.
