Student Services
EXPERT CARE, FOR LOCALS LIKE YOU
Balancing study, work, and training often places unexpected physical demands on students.
At Redfern Physiotherapy & Sports Medicine, our student services deliver the same evidence-based, personalised care as our standard appointments—at a reduced student rate. Management is guided by thorough assessment and clear clinical reasoning, rather than short-term symptom relief alone.
Study-related postural strain, prolonged sitting, training loads, and everyday stress can contribute to pain, injury, and reduced performance during student life. Without appropriate care, these issues may persist or worsen over time.
Our experienced team of Physiotherapists, Dietitians, and Massage Therapists provide targeted treatment alongside practical education around movement, posture, load management, and recovery strategies to support both academic and physical demands. Treatment plans may incorporate hands-on therapy, exercise-based rehabilitation, and supportive recovery services, helping students manage pain, prevent recurrence, and maintain function throughout their studies.
What is the student discount, and does it apply to every appointment?
Eligible students receive discounted pricing on every appointment, not just the initial consultation.
The student rate applies across Physiotherapy, Massage Therapy, and Dietitian services, allowing you to access the same standard of care at a reduced cost throughout your treatment.

- Subsequent $105 (save $10)
- Massage Therapy: 30 minutes $80 (save $10), 60 minutes $100 (save $30)

Can students use private health insurance or Medicare rebates?
Yes. Students may be able to claim private health insurance rebates, depending on their level of extras cover.
Medicare rebates are also available with a valid GP referral under a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP). Rebates are processed in line with Medicare guidelines and eligibility.
Do I need a GP referral for student physiotherapy?
No GP referral is required to access student physiotherapy services. However, if you wish to claim Medicare rebates, you will need a referral from your GP under a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP).
