Answering your Questions

Physiotherapy FAQs

Physiotherapists are healthcare professionals who treat specific conditions with manual therapy, which may include massage, acupuncture, dry needling, shockwave therapy, hydrotherapy, TENS etc. They also develop customised exercises and movements to help patients manage pain, improve range of motion, reduce symptoms from health conditions affecting mobility, and recover from injuries. They work on various body systems controlling movement, including musculoskeletal, nervous, cardiopulmonary, and integumentary systems, strengthening muscles, bones, heart, lungs, brain, nerves, and skin​​.

Physiotherapy treats issues that make it hard to move or use the body. It’s often recommended for:

  • back pain
  • carpal tunnel syndrome
  • urinary incontinence
  • trigger finger and thumb
  • lymphedema
  • spinal cord injuries
  • rotator cuff tears
  • TMJ disorders
  • concussions​

Physiotherapy is also used to treat chronic conditions like COPD, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, Parkinson’s disease, and cystic fibrosis.

In Australia, “physiotherapy” and “physical therapy” are often used interchangeably and refer to the same profession. Both terms describe a healthcare field focused on assessing, diagnosing, and treating physical disorders and injuries through manual therapy, exercises, and various treatment modalities. The term “physiotherapy” is more commonly used in Australia and many other parts of the world, while “physical therapy” is typically used in the United States. Regardless of the terminology, the practice and objectives of this healthcare discipline remain consistent.

Physiotherapists are healthcare professionals who treat specific conditions with manual therapy, which may include massage, acupuncture, dry needling, shockwave therapy, hydrotherapy, TENS, etc.  Physiotherapy aims to relieve pain and improve movement, covering various conditions and treatment types, including exercise, hands-on techniques, and education. Chiropractic treatment focuses on the adjustment/manipulation of your skeletal system.

While some discomfort can be normal during physiotherapy, it should not be excessively painful. Communicating with your physiotherapist about pain levels is important so they can adjust the treatment. The goal is to promote healing and recovery in a way that is manageable and beneficial for the patient​​.

Medicare coverage for physiotherapy varies and typically requires a doctor’s referral for the treatment to be deemed medically necessary. It’s recommended to check with your local GP if you meet the Medicare criteria​​.

The duration for physiotherapy to show results varies widely depending on the individual, the condition, and its severity. Some patients may see improvement within a few sessions, while others might require a longer course of treatment. Physiotherapists provide specific timelines based on individual situations​​.

You should consider seeing a physiotherapist if you are experiencing pain, injury, limited mobility, or chronic health conditions affecting physical function. They are also consulted for preventive care, such as injury prevention in sports or general physical health improvement​​.
