National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS):

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) in Australia recognises the importance of physiotherapy services for people with disabilities and provides funding and support through its comprehensive scheme. Physiotherapy plays a vital role in the healthcare system.

The physiotherapists at Foster Physiotherapy focus greatly on restoring and improving physical function, mobility, and overall well-being. As a result physiotherapy is particularly relevant for individuals with disabilities, as it can significantly enhance their quality of life and independence.

At Foster Physiotherapy we accept both self-managed and plan managed NDIS participants.

After a thorough assessment, some of the physiotherapy treatments we may provide for you are:

– Gross motor, fine motor and general coordination training
– Improving walking quality and movement impairments
– Strengthening and cardiovascular exercises
– Home exercise programs
– Balance training and fall prevention
– Advice on the management of specific conditions
– Pain management
– Manual therapy
– Providing recommendations for equipment and mobility aids

If you or someone you know is in need of NDIS funded physiotherapy, please email us on: info@fosterphysio.com.au

TELEHEALTH (VIDEO CONSULTATION):

**Coronavirus update May 2020**

Currently all 4 of our Foster Physio branches are open. Although we always strive to maintain a clean environment, we have been using hand sanitizer and wiping surfaces more regularly with alcohol-based wipes.

The other option is telehealth which is essentially an online video consultation rather than a face-to-face consultation with your physiotherapist. In this current time, patients may not be able to attend our clinics or simply may be self-isolating during the Coronavirus pandemic.

Telehealth offers real time:

  • Assessment
  • Diagnosis
  • Medical Imaging Referral
  • Advice
  • Guided exercises
  • Exercise/rehabilitation programs
  • Completion of workcover certificates and return to work discussion for workcover patients

Any queries or bookings via Telehealth please email: info@fosterphysio.com.au

We can not thank you enough for your continued support through this difficult time and we are equally grateful to be able to care for you when you need us the most.
