How we help

Whether you’re dealing with a recent injury, persistent pain, or recovering from surgery, our approach is tailored to your goals. We combine a thorough assessment, clear advice, hands-on treatment wherever appropriate, and personalised rehabilitation to help you feel better and stay active.

Assessment & Diagnosis

Physiotherapists are trained as first-contact practitioners, meaning you can see us directly without a referral. We assess your symptoms, movement, and perform specific tests to help identify the cause of your problem and determine the best way forward.

We take the time to understand your history, identify contributing factors, and explain what we find in clear, practical terms. Together, we’ll develop a plan that suits your goals before getting started.

Advice & Education

Understanding your condition can make all the difference. At Rozelle Physio, we strive to provide clear explanations and practical advice to help you understand your symptoms, manage your condition, and make informed decisions about your care.

Hands-on treatment & other therapies

At Rozelle Physio, we value skilled hands-on treatment as an important part of physiotherapy. When appropriate, we use a range of manual therapy techniques to help reduce pain, improve movement and support your rehabilitation. 

  • Joint mobilisation and manual therapy
  • Massage and soft tissue treatment
  • Dry needling
  • Shockwave Therapy
  • Taping and bracing

Supporting your goals

Physiotherapy works best when we work together. We’ll listen to your goals, explain your options, and help you make informed decisions about your care.

Whether your goal is returning to sport, getting back to the gym, managing an ongoing condition, or simply moving more comfortably, we’ll help you find the right approach to get there.

Rebates & Funding

Private Health Insurance (HICAPS)
We offer HICAPS for on-the-spot claiming with most private health funds, so you'll usually only need to pay the gap on the day.
Medicare
If your GP has referred you under a Chronic Disease Management (formerly EPC) plan, you may be eligible for a Medicare rebate. We can process your claim at the time of your appointment, so you'll simply pay the gap.
Workers Compensation
If your injury is covered by Workers Compensation, we're happy to help. Please let us know when booking that your treatment will be covered by Workers Compensation. We'll help organise the required information so we're ready to claim directly through your insurer, so you won't need to pay upfront.
CTP / Motor Vehicle Accidents
We treat patients recovering from motor vehicle accidents under CTP insurance. Please let us know when booking that your treatment will be covered by CTP. We'll help organise the required information and arrange payment through your insurer where appropriate, so you won't need to pay upfront.
NDIS
We welcome both self-managed and plan-managed NDIS participants. If you're unsure how to get started, we're happy to help with the process.
DVA
Eligible Department of Veterans' Affairs patients are welcome. Please contact us before your first appointment so we can confirm your referral and funding arrangements.

We provide physiotherapy under Home Care Packages and other aged care funding arrangements. If you're unsure what you're eligible for, please contact us and we'll happily guide you through the process.

Ryan Brady

Physiotherapist

Brady is an Inner West local with a passion for helping people reduce pain, better understand their injuries, and return confidently to the things they love doing.

Ryan completed a Doctor of Physiotherapy after first studying Sport and Exercise Management. He combines the latest evidence with a practical, client-centred approach, using both hands-on treatment and exercise therapy tailored to each individual. His previous roles supporting AFL and soccer teams have further developed his ability to assess and manage injuries in active people, while still keeping the bigger picture in mind.

With a calm and thoughtful style, Ryan is committed to ensuring patients feel heard, supported, and confident in their progress from day one.

Kimmy Lau

Physiotherapist

Kimmy completed her Bachelor of Applied Science in Physiotherapy (Honours) at the University of Sydney. She combines hands-on treatment with progressive exercise rehabilitation to help patients reduce pain, restore movement, and improve function. By assessing contributing factors, she is able to address the underlying cause of symptoms as well as the presenting condition, supporting long-term recovery and reducing the risk of future injuries.

Kimmy believes education is a key part of rehabilitation. She takes the time to explain each diagnosis, treatment plan, and exercise program so patients understand the reasoning behind their care and can confidently take an active role in their recovery.

Kimmy has completed further training in dry needling and incorporates it into treatment where clinically appropriate.

Blake loves working with people of all ages and all conditions, providing effective hands-on treatments, thoughtful advice and tailored rehabilitation. 

His expertise includes spinal pain, tendon conditions, osteoarthritis as well as helping fellow runners and parents. While rest has its place with some injuries, Blake increasingly tries to find ways to keep his patients training and living their lives while they recover.
