Our NDIS physiotherapy goes beyond pain relief and mobility. It helps you move, connect and participate more fully in everyday life.

Working closely with your broader therapy team, our physiotherapists deliver support where it matters most – at home, school, work, and in the community, helping you create meaningful, long-lasting change.

How NDIS Physiotherapy delivers more
When you work with Everyday Independence, our Melbourne based physiotherapists come to you as part of a broader team that may include speech pathologists, occupational therapists, behaviour support practitioners, and habit coaches.
To get started with physiotherapy in Melbourne, our disability practitioner or physiotherapist comes to your home to get to know you, your family and other members of your support team.
Together, we’ll create a personalised therapy plan with the right mix of practitioners and supports to help you achieve your goals.
Once your plan is in place, your therapy begins with your lead practitioner and team supporting you every step of the way.

Common questions about NDIS Physiotherapy in Melbourne
How do I get started with Physiotherapy?
To get started, simply fill out an online form, to help us understand a bit about you, where you live and what your goals are, so that we can match you to the right team.
A practitioner will then conduct an initial assessment in your home, understand your goals and get to know you, your family and other members of your support team. After they gather all the information the disability practitioner will pull together your dedicated therapy team.
Your follow up appointments or focused assessments will help to assess and develop specific strategies across physiotherapy, occupational, and speech therapies, assistive technologies, and/ or social intervention, and may be attended by one or two of these team members depending on your immediate goals.
Our physiotherapists deliver services in the community, where people live, work, study and play or spend their time. The best way to build your skills is to work with you in your everyday environment while also helping to change community attitudes that may be holding you back. Clinics are simulated environments which don’t present the same barriers and challenges as real-life, everyday environments.
Do you prescribe mobility equipment?
Yes, many of our physiotherapists can prescribe mobility equipment and other assistive technologies. They will help you choose the right walking or standing aide to support your individual needs from walking long distances to standing to stretch tight muscles. Our physiotherapists work with you to determine the best piece of equipment for you, show you how to use it, and ensure it’s helping you to achieve your goals.
We can provide a report for different funding bodies to gain funding for mobility equipment.
We’ll help everyone involved understand the plan and how to use it in everyday life.
Will my physiotherapist come with me to participate in community sports or recreation?
Yes, your physiotherapist can accompany you to community sports or recreation venues to help you work out the best way to participate in your activity of choice, and have fun. This may involve practicing exercises you can do in your house with no equipment, a walking program at your local park of a gym program to build up your strength and mobility.
