Physio near me in the Sutherland Shire
When you search physio near me, you want someone close, available soon, and worth the trip. PACT Physio & Rehab is one clinic in Miranda, caring for patients right across the Sutherland Shire, open 7 days with early and late times, and same day often available.
One clinic in Miranda, for the whole Shire
Plenty of results come up when you look for physio near me. The honest answer for the Sutherland Shire is that closest is not always best, and best is rarely the busiest clinic running 20 minute slots. PACT is a boutique practice in Miranda, central to the Shire and an easy run from the beaches, the western suburbs and across the Georges River.
You see a principal physiotherapist for a full 60 minutes on your first visit. No rush, no being passed around, just a clear diagnosis, honest advice and a plan you actually understand. Whether you are around Miranda, Cronulla, Caringbah, Sutherland, Gymea or Menai, you are looked after from one clinic that knows your history.
Getting to the clinic, or staying home
We are at Unit 1, 196 Sylvania Road, Miranda NSW 2228, with parking close by and an easy approach from the Kingsway and Sylvania Road. Most of the Shire is a short drive, and the suburbs just over Tom Uglys, Captain Cook and Woronora bridges are well within reach.

What to expect when you come in
Your first appointment runs a full 60 minutes. We listen to the whole story, examine you properly, and explain what is going on in plain language. From there you leave with a clear diagnosis and a starting plan, not a vague handout.
Treatment is hands on and evidence based. That can mean soft tissue release, joint mobilisation and trigger point dry needling to settle pain and tension, paired with a tailored exercise and rehab program so the gains hold. Follow up visits run 40 minutes and build on where you are up to.
The injuries we see most
From a fresh sprain to pain that has dragged on for months, we assess, diagnose and build a plan to get you moving. A lot of what walks through the door is back and neck pain, headaches, shoulder and knee trouble, and stubborn chronic pain that has not settled with rest alone.
We also care for people injured at work or on the road, and offer physiotherapy for sports injuries for weekend and club athletes wanting to get back to training safely.
Direct insurer billing, no gap on approved claims
If you have been hurt at work or in a motor vehicle accident, the physio near me question usually comes with another one: what will it cost. On an accepted workers compensation or CTP claim, reasonably necessary treatment is billed directly to your insurer, so there is no gap fee and nothing for you to pay at your appointment. We invoice the insurer on your behalf and handle the paperwork.
We work across icare NSW and its agents EML, Allianz, Gallagher Bassett, QBE and DXC, the CTP insurers NRMA, QBE, GIO and Allianz, and WorkCover Queensland. We also work alongside your nominated treating doctor so our treatment supports the plan in your Certificate of Capacity, and send your insurer an Allied Health Treatment Request if you need sessions beyond the initial approved care. Every claim is a little different, so we confirm your exact arrangement with your insurer or case manager before we begin.
Experienced care, from the principal physiotherapist
PACT is led by Andrew Ellis, founder and principal physiotherapist. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science (UOW), a Graduate Entry Master of Physiotherapy (USyd), and is an AHPRA registered and SIRA approved physiotherapist with more than 14 years of dry needling experience.
Andrew has extensive experience in workers compensation and occupational rehabilitation. Drawing on his background as a Senior Rehabilitation Consultant and Workplace Health and Safety Advisor, and his work advising insurers and employers on injury management, he works closely with doctors, case managers and employers to support a safe, sustainable return to work. He is also the physiotherapist behind @thedryneedlingphysio, and founder and host of World Health Webinars, which delivered courses to more than 5,000 clinicians across 14 countries.
What you pay, with or without cover
Every appointment is a full, unhurried session with the time to work through complex, persistent problems. The fee is $165 for an initial visit and $142 for a follow up, and if you have Medicare, private health extras or an accepted claim, here is what you pay.
