Our services at Aubin Grove Physiotherapy are eligible for rebate under Private Health ancillary cover. To make payment easier, our clinics offer on-site electronic claiming (HiCAPS). This allows you to instantly claim your rebate from most private health insurers, leaving you only the gap to pay after treatment. Please click here to see if your Private Health fund is linked to HiCAPS direct claiming facilities.

As insurance policies vary, we recommend you check your level of cover with your insurer.

REMEDIAL MASSAGE

Remedial massage therapy involves the assessment and treatment of soft tissue dysfunctions, to assist in rehabilitation, alleviation of pain and injury management. Massage therapy may also be beneficial as a preventative strategy to promote normal muscle contraction and reduce the likelihood of injury. Remedial massage therapy aims to:

• Restore and maintain normal muscle length
• Reduce pain and muscle tension
• Promote normal joint position and mobility
• Increase the flow of blood to muscles
• Promote the formation of healthy scar tissue

Each massage is tailored to suit individual needs, and will consist of an assessment (to identify musculoskeletal dysfunctions and determine the client’s health status) and appropriate hands on treatment. Your remedial massage treatment may consist of a combination of the following techniques:

• Swedish Massage
• Deep tissue massage
• Neuromuscular techniques (eg. trigger point therapy)
• Myofascial release techniques
• Muscle energy techniques
• Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation
• Positional release techniques
• Mobilising techniques

Rebates from most Private Health Insurers may apply. Our massage services are available 3 days per week. Jacinta is available for appointments on a Wednesday afternoon and Sonja is available on a Tuesday morning and every second Saturday morning. We offer 30 and 60 minute massage treatments.
