Physiotherapy For Private Patients:
We have a HICAPS terminal which automatically claims the amount paid by the individual Private Health Insurance Companies, so that you need only pay the difference (Gap).

We are a Medibank members choice & Bupa members first practice so if you have extras cover with either of these funds your gap paymant will be the least possible. Different health funds pay different amounts depending on the type of cover.

You have to be deemed eligible by your G.P to receive this referral under medicare. Speak to your G.P about your eligibility. Please have your referral made out to Body Applications.

Your foot has four layers of muscles and many joints and ligaments, which are all designed to move (flex / extend) when we walk, run or sprint. However, the vast majority of shoes have a largely rigid sole and a raised heel resulting in poor foot mechanics which can cause pain directly at your foot or further up the chain at your knee, hip or spine.

We are technically designed to not wear anything on our feet; however foot coverings have been developed to protect our feet from sharp objects and harsh conditions such as extreme heat and cold. When muscles and joints are not allowed to move through their normal range of motion (ROM) the muscles shorten (get tight) and the joints become immobile (stiffen).

Since wearing Leguanos patients have found their gait (walking) pattern has improved as their feet can now work correctly as it was designed. Patients report feeling like they are gliding or more efficiently walking.
