FAQ

Osteopathy is a holistic, hands-on allied health profession focused on helping the body move and function at its best. Osteopaths assess how the muscles, joints, nerves, posture, and lifestyle factors may be contributing to pain or restriction, rather than only looking at the site of symptoms.

Treatment may include hands-on techniques such as soft tissue massage, joint mobilisation, stretching, dry needling, exercise prescription, and practical advice around movement, posture, and self-management.

Osteopathy can assist with a wide range of concerns including back and neck pain, headaches, jaw tension, sports injuries, pregnancy-related discomfort, and general aches and pains. Our goal is to help reduce pain, improve movement, and support your long-term wellbeing.

Full payment of the appointment is taken on the day. To issue your Medicare rebate on the spot, please bring your Medicare card and a debit card linked to the account receiving the rebate.

If you do not have these cards with you, we can still provide a paid receipt for you to submit the claim directly with Medicare afterwards.

Our clinicians are registered with all major private health insurance providers, allowing eligible patients with Osteopathy extras to claim private rebates.

Please bring your health fund card to your appointment, either a physical card or digital version, so we can process on-the-spot claiming via HICAPS.

If you forget your card on the day, the full appointment fee will be charged and a payment receipt will be provided. You can then submit this receipt directly to your health fund to receive any eligible rebate.

No.

Osteopathy can be booked directly, and a referral is not required for private appointments or private health insurance claims.

We do accept referrals from GPs for Medicare-rebated sessions under a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP), however this is only needed if you are accessing Medicare rebates.

Please wear whatever you feel comfortable in. Depending on the area being assessed or treated, some treatment is often most effective with less clothing, sometimes down to underwear. Your comfort and consent are always the priority, and we use towels for draping throughout the session while communicating throughout the appointment.

If you wear a bra, we recommend one with a back clasp. This often allows the bra to remain on during treatment and be unclipped temporarily for treatment of the back.

If you have long hair, bringing a hair tie can also be helpful for easier access during assessment and treatment.

If you ever feel unsure or prefer to remain more covered, just let us know, we will always work with what feels right for you.

Absolutely.

We provide osteopathic care throughout all stages of pregnancy, with treatment tailored to your trimester, symptoms, comfort, and changing needs along the way.

Our clinicians are experienced in supporting pregnant patients and offers evidence-based support for common pregnancy concerns such as back pain, pelvic discomfort, rib pain, posture changes, and general tension.

We also have a specialised pregnancy table that allows many patients to lie comfortably on their tummy, making treatment both comprehensive and safe when appropriate.
