Referrals for physiotherapy are commonly made to assess your injury, guide rehabilitation, and support your recovery back to function. This may involve initiating a rehabilitation program, reviewing your progress if recovery has stalled, or providing an expert opinion on diagnosis, prognosis, and management timeframes.
At BodySense Physiotherapy, we also provide clear recommendations and communicate findings to your treating doctor and physiotherapist where appropriate, ensuring your care remains aligned and informed.
If you have sustained a workplace or compensable injury, physiotherapy plays an important role in your rehabilitation and recovery. At BodySense Physiotherapy, we support insurance patients through thorough assessment, clear communication, and coordinated care planning.
You may have been referred by your GP, insurer, treating doctor, or medical specialist, or you may be seeking an independent assessment to guide your rehabilitation process.
Your first appointment usually involves a Comprehensive Physiotherapy Assessment, particularly if your condition is complex or recovery has not progressed as expected.
What this assessment involves:
Following your assessment, we prepare a comprehensive report outlining our findings and recommendations. A follow-up appointment is often scheduled to review progress and ensure rehabilitation is progressing as expected.
This structured approach helps ensure clarity for both you and the health professionals involved in your care.
Where appropriate, we continue to support your rehabilitation through ongoing physiotherapy sessions. This may involve treatment delivered in the clinic, within our exercise facility, or in a gym-based environment.
Throughout your rehabilitation, we monitor your progress closely and provide regular updates to your medical practitioner and case manager, ensuring transparency and alignment with recovery expectations.
If you are already seeing a physiotherapist, we ensure they receive a copy of our report and recommendations so your ongoing care can be adjusted accordingly. Where possible, we communicate directly with your physiotherapist to discuss findings and management options.
If you live a long way from our clinic, we are happy to refer you to a physiotherapist closer to your home and provide them with a clear handover of our assessment findings and recommendations.
Our physio-led classes are small and often booked out by existing patients. Join the waitlist and we’ll let you know when a spot becomes available or call us to check availability.
We’re now welcoming patients at Pier Street Medical, right next to HBF Park.
