Physiotherapy at Carter & George

Not at all! You can book an appointment with us directly, no referral needed. We believe in making care accessible, so whether you've woken up with a stiff neck or you're dealing with a long-standing issue, you can come straight to us. Of course, if you do have a referral or any medical documents, bring them along – they can be helpful, but they're not essential.

Absolutely! While we do work with athletes, physiotherapy is for everyone. Whether you're dealing with back pain from office work, recovering from surgery, or just want to improve your overall mobility, we're here to help. Our care is tailored to your specific needs and lifestyle, so you'll get treatment that's just right for you.

Comfort is key! We recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely and gives us access to the area we'll be treating. For lower body issues, shorts or loose-fitting trousers are great. For upper body concerns, a t-shirt or tank top works well.

We always aim to make your experience as comfortable as possible. Some treatments might cause a bit of discomfort, especially if we're working on a painful area, but it should never be unbearable. We're always checking in with you and can adjust our techniques to ensure you're comfortable. Many of our patients actually find their sessions relaxing!

We sure do! Besides manual therapy, we offer a range of treatments including shockwave therapy, dry needling, strength & conditioning, and more. We also have diagnostic tools like ultrasound scanning. Your treatment plan will be tailored to your needs and might include a combination of these approaches.

Most likely, yes. Think of it as homework for your health! We usually prescribe exercises to reinforce your in-clinic treatment and speed up your recovery. Don't worry – we'll make sure you know exactly how to do them, and we'll tailor them to fit into your daily routine.

In many cases, yes. We work with all major private health insurance providers. It's best to check with your insurance company about your specific coverage. If you're unsure, give us a call and we'll be happy to help you navigate this.

We're sorry to hear you've had a disappointing experience in the past. Physiotherapy, like any healthcare, can vary depending on the practitioner and the approach used. At Carter & George, we pride ourselves on our experienced team, advanced techniques, and personalised care. We take the time to really understand your condition and tailor our approach accordingly. Many of our patients have found success with us after unsuccessful treatments elsewhere. We'd love the opportunity to help you too!
