FAQ’s

  • In most cases, you don't need a referral from a GP to see one of our physiotherapists — you can book directly for musculoskeletal pain or injuries. Some funding pathways may require a referral or specific paperwork, so let us know if any of these apply to you.

  • Not usually. Many musculoskeletal conditions, including most back and neck pain, can be assessed through a thorough physical examination and your symptom history, without needing imaging first. Your physiotherapist will let you know if imaging is recommended based on your specific presentation.

  • Your physiotherapist will discuss your symptoms and history, assess your movement and function, and work with you to understand the factors contributing to your pain. From there, they'll develop a personalised treatment plan based on your goals and condition.

  • Yes. Musculoskeletal physiotherapy isn't limited to new injuries — evidence-based approaches, including exercise, education, and manual therapy, are also effective for persistent or long-standing pain. Your treatment plan will be tailored to whether your symptoms are recent or ongoing.

  • This varies depending on your condition, how long you've had symptoms, and how you respond to treatment. Some people improve within a few sessions, while others need an ongoing plan for more persistent issues. Your physiotherapist will discuss what's realistic for you after your initial assessment.
