Frequently Asked Questions

Everyone’s needs are unique. After a detailed first assessment, our Balmain physio team will set out a tailored plan that pinpoints how often you should come in for the best results.

Most of the time, a referral isn’t always necessary. However, there are certain situations or insurance guidelines where you might require one. If you’ve got any reports or scans, do bring them so we can give you the best-informed care.

Wear something comfortable and loose-fitting that allows ease of movement and accessibility to the injured or assessment area.

Expect your initial session to be a bit longer, around an hour, since they involve a comprehensive assessment. After that, treatments generally take between 30 to 45 minutes.

Yes, they can! Just bring along your health fund card, and we’ll process it straight away via HICAPS. The rebate amount will depend on your specific plan. And yes, with a GP’s Enhanced Primary Care form (EPC), you might snag a Medicare rebate, too. Please read more detailed info here.

This place was amazing I was so happy about how I was treated and looked after . I liked how everything was explained to me and it made sense . I was grateful when I told my symptoms to the lovely lady she knew what I was talking about and ways we could improve things and that I wasn’t alone. Also I felt that the environment was pleasant calm and relaxing which is what I needed. I have already taken a few work cards to pass out to some ladies I know . Thank you ???? Looking forward to moving forward

Anastasia is a miracle worker! I'm a keen runner and I started seeing her a few months ago after a couple of broken backs and a (new) torn hammy. She diagnosed my hammy problem quickly and efficiently, provided immediate relief through some deep massage to allow me to survive a few more important runs before my wedding (honeymoon = rest), and has helped me rebuild through focused strength work and home exercises. She obviously cares about her patients and enjoys helping them achieve their goals. I'm now running regularly and pain free again! Thanks Anastasia 🙂
