Welcome

The team at Inner North Osteopathy opened the doors at the Brunswick clinic in May 2011, with a commitment to providing high quality osteopathic care to people of all ages.

Our Osteopaths take the time to provide a thorough diagnosis so they can deliver treatment that is best suited to each individual in order to achieve optimum results.


Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral?
Osteopaths are primary healthcare providers which means that no referral is necessary. If your treatment is being covered by WorkSafe, TAC or DVA, you will require a referral to ensure that your costs are covered.

Is treatment covered by TAC, WorkSafe or DVA?
We are able to treat WorkSafe, TAC, EPC and DVA patients, however you will require a referral from your GP. For TAC and WorkSafe patients we will also require your claim number and date of injury.

Is treatment covered by private health insurance or medicare?
We are covered by private health funds via extras cover. Exact details will vary depending on the individual fund and level of cover. We do have a Hicaps machine which enables you to claim health fund payments on the spot. For medicare rebates you must qualify for an EPC plan. You will need to discuss this with your GP, and a referral is necessary.

Should I bring my X-rays?
Yes, please bring in any X-ray, CT or MRI scan results you may have. If you have a report for these scans, make sure you bring this along as well.

What happens during my first treatment?
The first treatment is longer than a repeat consult and will normally last up to an hour. During the first treatment a thorough case history is taken, this includes details of your current complaint and your past medical history, including past injuries and accidents. Following the history the Osteopath will examine and diagnose your problem. This may include orthopaedic and neurological testing. Following this treatment will commence. This may include soft tissue massage, stretching or manipulation. Many techniques used are very gentle and if you are concerned about manipulation, there are a variety of effective alternatives which can be employed. After the treatment you will be given advice regarding your prognosis and a self-management strategy.
