- We will follow up approval from your insurance company so that we can bill your consultations directly to your insurance company which will remove the additional financial pressure at this time.
- All our treatment principles apply, including accurate diagnosis, effective hands-on therapy, progressive strengthening and flexibility programs, pilates, bracing and assistance in returning to work safely.
- Workers compensation injuries can be any of the presentations we see at Dee Why Physiotherapy and we treat with all the same principles.
- WorkCover claims may include patients receiving treatment for injuries that are the result of a specific incident or for injury from a repetitive or prolonged action causing an overuse injury.
