What is Involved in a Physiotherapy Session?

By assessing how your body moves, your physiotherapist may be able to identify the underlying cause of your concern and develop a treatment plan tailored to your goals and lifestyle.

Depending on your needs, treatments may include:

Manual Therapy

Through gentle manipulation of muscles and joints, manual therapy may help reduce pain and work toward improving your mobility.

Exercise Programs

An individualised exercise programme may help support the development of strength and flexibility over time.

Shockwave Therapy

shockwave therapy uses high-energy sound waves that may help stimulate tissue and support the recovery process.

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.

You don’t have to let pain hold you back.

Common Questions About Mosman Physiotherapy

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 much time should I allow for a physiotherapy appointment?

First appointments are usually between 45 and 60 minutes in length. Follow-up sessions generally take between 30 and 45 minutes, depending on the nature of your treatment plan.

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.

Is physiotherapy claimable through private health insurance?

Should your extras cover include physiotherapy, you may claim a rebate immediately via HICAPS at either our Cremorne or Balgowlah clinic.

Do you accept Medicare referrals (EPC/Chronic Disease Management plans)?

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.

Is there an extra charge 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?

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 frequently should I attend physiotherapy sessions?

Visit frequency varies depending on your individual condition and goals. After your initial assessment, your physiotherapist will develop a personalised treatment plan and outline a suggested visit frequency to support your progress.

Is manual therapy included in the consultation?

Manual therapy is included as part of your physiotherapy consultation when it is considered clinically necessary by your physiotherapist.

Does dry needling hurt?
