Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use my private health insurance?
Yes, we accept all major private health insurance providers. Bring your card to your appointment and we'll process your rebate on the spot where possible.
Will you tell me to stop running?
No, we try to keep our athletes running as much as they can tolerate throughout their rehab. Our goal is to keep you moving, not sideline you.
