Our Physiotherapy Services

Q: Do I need a referral?

No referral is needed for private appointments—you can book directly. For Medicare CDM/EPC , and some other funded pathways (e.g. DVA, WorkCover, TAC, My Aged Care, NDIS reports), a referral or approval is required. If you’re unsure, start with Start Your Referral and we’ll guide you.

Q: Do you offer home visits?

Yes. Home visits are available for suitable clients, particularly under NDIS and My Aged Care , or when mobility and transport are challenging. We’ll confirm availability for your area when you enquire or submit a referral .

Q: Where are you located?

Mernda: 136 Schotters Rd, Mernda VIC 3754. Reservoir: 224A Broadway, Reservoir VIC 3073. See our Locations page for directions, parking and clinic photos at each.

Q: What should I bring to my first appointment?

Please bring any relevant referrals (e.g. GP CDM plan, WorkCover/TAC details, NDIS/My Aged Care information), scan reports, medication list and comfortable clothing that allows you to move easily.

Q: How many sessions will I need?

This depends on your condition, how long it’s been present and your goals. Some issues improve in a few visits; others require a longer-term rehab plan. Your physio will give you an honest expectation after your assessment.

How It Works

What to expect

Every appointment is structured around your story. Below is how we work together to get you back to what matters.

01. Assessment

Together, we create a plan that may include:

Manual therapy (joint mobilisation, soft tissue techniques)

A personalised exercise program for strength, mobility and control

Education about your condition, pain and pacing

Practical advice on work tasks, sport, hobbies or daily routines

03. Progress

We check your progress at each session, adjusting your program as you improve so you can:

Return to work, sport and daily activities with more confidence

Understand what helps your condition and what to avoid

Build long-term habits that support your health and independence

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I really enjoyed my first visit to Radiant Care today. Stephanie is really good. She not only provided a good treatment for my aching buttock, but also instructed me how to further improve that area by a set of exercises at home. Can’t wait for the following up visits to her.
