Common areas include handwriting and fine-motor skills, sensory sensitivities, daily routines (dressing, eating, sleep), coordination, and self-regulation.

Do we need a referral?

Can OT be funded by the NDIS?

How is OT different from physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy focuses on gross-motor movement and physical function; OT focuses on participation in everyday tasks, including fine-motor, sensory, and self-care skills.

What Bodycare helps with

Children's Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy services tailored for children to support movement and functional goals.

Children's Occupational Therapy

A therapy that helps children and adults develop the everyday skills needed for daily life — from dressing, writing and play to sensory processing and school participation. Occupational therapists assess what is getting in the way and design practical strategies to build independence and confidence.

Dynamic Movement Therapy (DMI)

Specialized movement therapy for children.

Kids Swimming Lessons & Babyswim

Swimming instruction for children and babies.

Manual Therapy

Hands-on therapeutic techniques for pain relief and mobility.

Dry Needling

A physiotherapy technique that uses fine needles to target trigger points in muscles to relieve pain and improve movement. It is used to treat musculoskeletal pain, tension and movement restrictions and is distinct from acupuncture.

Exercise Rehabilitation

Structured exercise programs for rehabilitation and recovery.

Hydrotherapy

Therapeutic exercises performed in a heated pool under the supervision of a physiotherapist or occupational therapist. The water's buoyancy reduces joint stress and allows movement that may be difficult on land, making it beneficial for children and adults with physical disability, chronic pain or low muscle tone.

Sports Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy for sports-related injuries and performance.

Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy

Specialized physiotherapy for pelvic floor health.

Women's Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy services tailored for women's health needs.

Men's Health Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy services tailored for men's health needs.

Clinical Pilates

Structured, evidence-based exercise programs designed and supervised by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist to improve physical health, manage chronic conditions and support disability. For children it can target motor development; for adults it often addresses pain, metabolic conditions and mental health.

Vestibular Physiotherapy

Treatment for balance and inner ear disorders.

Hand, Wrist & Elbow Therapy

Specialized therapy for upper limb conditions.

Exercise Physiology

NDIS Physiotherapy

Treatment that uses movement, exercise and hands-on techniques to improve physical function, strength and mobility. For children, physiotherapy often targets gross motor development, balance and coordination; for adults it addresses pain, injury recovery and long-term conditions.

Lymphoedema Physiotherapy

Specialized treatment for lymphoedema management.

Post Surgical Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation following surgical procedures.

Workplace Screening & Rehabilitation

Workplace assessments and rehabilitation services.

Our approach

The clinic aims to provide best quality physiotherapy based on the latest research and treatment techniques, with sessions tailored to each child's individual goals and needs. Treatment is personalised and adapted to meet unique requirements, with an active, empowering approach that encourages children to participate in their recovery. Sessions typically involve assessment and hands-on physiotherapy techniques combined with exercise programs. The clinic offers access to their own hydrotherapy pool, pilates studio and gym facilities to support rehabilitation and progression. Education for the child and family about the condition and benefits of physical therapy is combined with treatment interventions.

Working with families

The clinic works closely with families and carers to create comprehensive treatment plans. Family education is a key part of sessions, with therapists educating parents and carers about their child's condition, the benefits of physical therapy, and how to support their child's progress. The team collaborates with families to ensure treatment aligns with the child's goals and needs, and provides support with progress reports and functional assessments for NDIS plan reviews where relevant.

Meet the team

The children's therapy team includes physiotherapists (Danielle, Sophie, Bec, Mahlie, Ana, Elano, Zoe, Annie and Anna) and a physiotherapy assistant (Kate). The team also includes occupational therapists (Michelle, an Accredited Hand Therapist, and Renae), an Exercise Physiologist (Alana), and swim instructors (Jackie, Hayley and Mitch). All therapists are qualified professionals with experience in children's therapy services.

Your first visit

At the first appointment, the physiotherapists carefully assess each patient to provide personalised treatment that is safe and effective. The assessment identifies the child's condition, goals and any underlying contributing factors. This is typically combined with family education about the child's condition and the benefits of physical therapy. The therapists will discuss exercise programs and treatment interventions appropriate for the child, and work to develop a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to the individual's needs.
