Physiotherapy
Physiotherapists are health professionals trained in the diagnosis, prevention and management of conditions affecting the movement and physical performance of the body. As a profession physiotherapy has a wide scope with many sub-specialties ranging from sports and musculoskeletal through to neurology, geriatrics and respiratory care. Physiotherapists are first contact practitioners which means you do not need a doctors referral to access their services (except for where treatments are being accessed through Medicare).
