Our practice

At Physio Noosa we help you take a proactive approach to your health care by providing a range of health and therapy services. Our practice combines physiotherapy, dry needling, massage and pilates. We offer clients a complete care solution, from expert assessment to diagnosis and treatment.

Throughout our consultations we endeavour to teach our patients as much as possible about their condition, so that they can learn to manage the symptoms and achieve lasting results. We work to ensure patients become self sufficient with management strategies, rather than developing a reliance on short-term remedies.

Located in the commercial precinct of Noosa Civic, Physio Noosa services the entire Noosa region, as well as the hinterlands and surrounds. Our premises are purpose-built specifically for physiotherapy, pilates and rehabilitation. We cater for a wide variety of problems for men, women and children of all ages.

You do not need a doctor's referral to come and see us. However, if you are coming to us under a GP management plan or Team Care Arrangements (formerly Enhanced Primary Care Scheme - EPC), you will need to have all necessary paperwork in place before your appointment is made. We BULK BILL for patients with a pension card or student card, otherwise a small gap is payable.

Private Patients are requested to pay at the time of their consultation. HICAPS (private health insurance) and EFTPOS facilities are available so we can claim on the spot.

DVA Patients - DVA will be directly billed. A current doctors referral is necessary.

Workers Compensation Patients are able to have their account billed to their insurer, provided you have a claimable injury and that all details and certificates are forthcoming.

We carry a range of products to assist with our therapies including heat packs, liniment, self-massage devices, braces, tape and elastic exercise band.
