Improve Your Daily Life With Physiotherapy Care Through NDIS Supports

While the common perception of physiotherapy revolves around the treatment of elite sporting athletes, the scope of physiotherapy goes well beyond that! This mode of therapy also includes providing personalised care and assistance to people with a broad range of disabilities. Read more to find out! 

Who do We See?

At A Plus Physiotherapy, we can see any NDIS participants, who are over 7 years old (we are able to work with participants who are under 7 if they are self-managed, plan-managed or paying privately).

Our expert Team of Physiotherapists are skilled and well-versed in providing treatment and advice to support a number of disabilities and chronic conditions, such as those who present with:

  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Stroke
  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME)
  • Dementia/Alzhimer’s
  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Functional Neurological Disorder
  • Head injury, acquired brain injury (ABI) or Spinal Cord Injury
  • Intellectual or Psychological Disorders
  • Genetic Conditions
  • Developmental Conditions
  • Amputations or significant traumatic injuries
  • Are deconditioned & in need of exercise therapy
  • Are at risk of falling in their home or within the community
  • Are awaiting orthopedic surgery or recovering from surgery
  • Suffer from mental illness and need holistic lifestyle solutions

We can also help if:

  • You require treatment to reduce the symptoms of your disability
  • You require an exercise program to improve strength, mobility and flexibility
  • You require an exercise program to decrease the effects of your disability
  • Your goal is to improve your functional capacity
  • Your goal is to improve your ability to access the community

Our musculoskeletal physiotherapists treat a wide range of injuries and conditions. We have experience working with patients of all ages, from all walks of life and of highly divergent circumstances.

Some of the conditions we treat include: interactive diagram of a running figure (hovering over certain areas of the body shows bullet/dot points of injuries)

Are you eligible for NDIS physio?

The NDIS is available to Australian citizens, permanent residents and special-category visa holders who live in Australia, are aged between seven and 65 years old, and who have a permanent and significant disability. Based on the NDIS criteria, a permanent and significant disability means you either need support from another person, use special equipment or require supports to reduce your future needs. You can check your eligibility through the NDIS website.

We accept referrals from:

  • You, the client
  • Plan managers
  • Medical professionals
  • Family members of the person with the disability

NDIS physiotherapy FEES

All of our NDIS health & wellness services are priced in-line with the national NDIS pricing guidelines. We do not charge additional fees on top of these guidelines. 

See the current NDIS pricing structure, or call us on 0401509975.

How to apply for NDIS funds

The NDIS website suggests that if you believe you are eligible, the first step is to phone the NDIA, which runs the scheme, on 1800 800 110 and make an Access Request. When you call, you’ll need to confirm your identity and will be asked questions to verify your residency and eligibility. If you’re already receiving disability support services, the NDIA will contact you when NDIS funding becomes available in your area, if it isn’t already.

During the application process, you will be asked to provide evidence of your disability. This may include documents confirming your primary disability, how this disability impacts different areas of your life, descriptions of past treatments and outcomes, and future treatment options and the expected outcomes of these. This evidence can be completed by your treating health professional such as a GP, Paediatrician, psychologist or allied health practitioner. This evidence should also include your date of diagnosis, details about how long the disability will last, and the treatments that are available.

If your application is accepted, you will then attend a planning meeting, where your needs and goals will be discussed. Be sure to take any relevant reports or assessments along with you to this meeting, so the resulting plan is right for your needs. After the meeting, the NDIA will process and approve your plan, and your ECEI co-ordinator, LAC or NDIA planner will let you know when this is complete.
