NDIS Registered Physiotherapy
NDIS physiotherapy is a type of physical therapy that can help participants to improve their mobility, reduce pain, increase strength, and increase overall physical function.
NDIA physiotherapists are highly skilled in working with individuals with physical disabilities, chronic conditions and brain injuries.
However, NDIS Minister Bill Shorten says they’re also engaging in “price gouging” as providers up their fees once they know participants have government funding.
Physiotherapy for NDIS participants
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides funding for physiotherapy services to help improve your health and wellbeing. Physiotherapy is a treatment that helps you manage pain, move better and participate in activities you love, like sports and recreation.
Physiotherapy services are available for people of all ages and can be provided in a clinic, home or mobile setting. They are particularly beneficial for those with physical disabilities, stroke, brain injuries and cerebral palsy.
NDIS registered physiotherapy is a safe and effective way to improve mobility, flexibility and movement for NDIS participants. It is a holistic approach to treatment, using education, advice and tailored exercises along with hands-on manual therapy to support mobility.
Physiotherapy is a key part of the NDIS, with many providers able to offer services under NDIS funding. This includes home visit physiotherapy, as well as in-home and mobile sessions for eligible NDIS participants.

NDIS physiotherapy providers

Many physiotherapists throughout Australia are now registered with the NDIS. This means that they can provide physiotherapy services to participants who are selfmanaged, plan-managed or NDIA-managed.
A physiotherapist will review your NDIS goals and medical history before providing therapy. This will help them to work with you and achieve the best possible outcome.
Often, a physiotherapist will also assess your body movement to identify any issues that may be contributing to your discomfort. They will then create a treatment plan that can be adapted to your needs. This can include exercises, stretches, and other forms of rehabilitation. They may also recommend equipment or mobility aids that can help you to move better.
NDIS physiotherapy fees
