Physio for Kirrawee, two stops down the line in Miranda
If you train before work, run laps of the park at South Village or spend your days at a desk, the niggles tend to arrive at the same time: after hours. That is why we are open until 9pm on weeknights and all weekend, two train stops away in Miranda.
Close to Kirrawee
Kirrawee has changed, and so have its injuries
Kirrawee grew up fast around the old Brick Pit. The South Village precinct now sits a short walk from the station, with apartments, shops and a park, and it has pulled in a younger crowd who train hard around a working week.
Those are the injuries that come with that lifestyle: kneecap pain from a new running program, shin splints after a jump in training, a lower back that seized on a deadlift, and necks and shoulders worn down by a laptop.
We have one clinic, in Miranda, and Andrew is the physiotherapist you see every visit. From Kirrawee that is a short drive up the Princes Highway or two stops on the train, close enough to fit a session in before the gym or after work.

Running and gym injuries around South Village
A running program that ramps up too quickly tends to show itself in the same places: the front of the knee, the shins and the achilles. In the gym it is more often a back that locks up mid lift or a shoulder that pinches overhead.
Andrew starts with a 60 minute initial appointment. That is long enough to watch you squat, hop or land, work on the sore tissue by hand, and set up a program that keeps you training with the load adjusted, rather than resting for a month and starting again.
Desk work, apartment living and the lower back
A lot of the newer Kirrawee lifestyle is a screen all day and a hard session at night, and the lower back cops both ends of that. Sitting stiffens it, then a heavy session asks it to move.
For a back or neck that has been grumbling for weeks, we use spinal and joint mobilisation, soft tissue release and trigger point dry needling to settle it, then build the strength and the habits that keep it settled. Where a desk setup is the cause, we go through it with you.
Hurt at work or in a car accident
If your injury happened on the job or in a motor accident, Andrew is a SIRA approved physiotherapist with about a decade in occupational rehabilitation alongside clinical work. Approved workers compensation and CTP claims are billed straight to the insurer, nothing to pay on an approved claim, and the clinical reports insurers ask for are part of the service.
We deal with the icare scheme agents, WorkCover Queensland, Comcare and the CTP insurers, and if you cannot get to Miranda for a visit, telehealth through PACT Virtual Care is an option Australia wide.

Workers comp and CTP, billed directly
For Kirrawee workers with an approved claim, we bill the insurer directly, so there is nothing for you to pay. We handle the paperwork and the reporting. See workers compensation physiotherapy in the Sutherland Shire for how a claim works at our clinic.
What you will actually pay
The full fee is $165 for an initial visit and $142 for a follow up, and every appointment is a full, unhurried session with the time to work through complex, persistent problems. Once your cover is applied, here is what you actually pay.
Before any rebate. Private paying is welcome, and your fee buys the whole session, never a rushed 20 minutes.
A GP Chronic Disease Management referral rebates $61.80 on every visit, up to 5 a year.
The usual out of pocket once you claim on the spot, depending on your level of cover.
Nothing for you to pay at any visit. Accepted workers compensation and CTP motor accident claims are billed straight to your insurer, and we handle the paperwork.
