“I was having chronic knee pain and a specialist advised me to get my knees replaced. Seth suggested further treatment and exercises - and it worked! That was 15 years ago and I still have my original knees.”

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a referral to see a physiotherapist?
No referral is required. You can book directly with us at any time. A GP referral is only needed if you wish to use a Medicare Chronic Disease Management plan.
Which areas do you service?
We cover Sydney's Eastern Suburbs including Bondi, Vaucluse, Paddington, Double Bay, Woollahra, Rose Bay, Randwick, Coogee, Bronte, Maroubra, and surrounds. We also see patients in clinic at the Sporting Club of Sydney in Moore Park (Tue, Fri and Sat) and at OptiSports in Barangaroo.
What are your hours?
We offer home visits 7 days a week, 7am to 7pm. Same-week appointments are often available.
Do you accept private health insurance?
Yes. We accept all major Australian health funds with extras cover that includes physiotherapy. You can claim on the spot using HICAPS - you only pay the gap.
What happens during my first appointment?
For home visits, your initial session runs for 60 minutes. Seth will take a detailed history, perform a physical assessment to identify factors that may be contributing to your symptoms, and discuss a personalised treatment plan. Treatment may begin in the same session when appropriate. At the Sporting Club of Sydney clinic, new patients can book a 45-minute initial consult or a 60-minute extended consult.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies with your condition, goals, health, and response to treatment. After the first assessment, Seth will discuss a recommended plan and review it with you as treatment progresses. No specific outcome or timeframe can be guaranteed.
Can you treat elderly or immobile patients?
Absolutely. This is one of the key advantages of mobile physiotherapy. We regularly treat older adults who have difficulty travelling to a clinic, patients recovering from hip or knee replacements, and anyone whose mobility is limited by their condition. Treatment is adapted to suit your physical capacity.
Do you treat sports injuries?
Yes - sports injury rehabilitation is one of our specialties. Our principal physiotherapist Seth Hirschowitz was an official physiotherapist at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games and has worked with professional teams across soccer, basketball, and cricket.
What should I do for lower back pain in the first few days?
Back pain has many causes, so general advice may not suit everyone. If comfortable, avoid prolonged bed rest and continue gentle daily movement within your tolerance. Seek urgent medical care for bladder or bowel changes, sudden leg weakness, or numbness around the groin. Arrange an assessment if symptoms are severe, worsening, or concerning.
When is back pain serious and requires urgent attention?
Most back pain is mechanical and not dangerous. However, seek same-day emergency care if you have changes to bladder or bowel function, sudden weakness in both legs, or reduced sensation in the inner thighs or groin, as these may indicate cauda equina syndrome. See a physio or GP promptly if you have constant pain that doesn't ease with any position, unexplained weight loss, a history of cancer, or fever alongside back pain.
Does core strengthening fix back pain?
Core exercise can be one part of a back-pain program, but no single exercise approach fixes every presentation. The appropriate program depends on your symptoms, capacity, preferences, and assessment findings. A physiotherapist can help select and progress exercises that are suitable for you.
I woke up with a stiff, painful neck. What should I do?
A stiff neck can have different causes. Gentle movement within a comfortable range may be appropriate, but stop if symptoms worsen. Avoid driving if you cannot turn your head safely. Seek medical advice after significant trauma or if you have severe headache, weakness, numbness, fever, dizziness, or other concerning symptoms; arrange an assessment if the problem persists or recurs.
What's the difference between a disc bulge and spinal stenosis?
Both can be associated with leg symptoms, but symptoms alone cannot confirm the cause. A disc bulge describes a change in a spinal disc, while spinal stenosis describes narrowing around the spinal canal or nerves. Their relevance and management depend on your history and examination, so persistent or worsening symptoms should be assessed by an appropriate health professional.
How long does ACL rehabilitation take?
A thorough ACL rehabilitation program typically takes 9–12 months before return to pivoting sport. The first 1–2 weeks focus on swelling control and regaining range of motion, followed by progressive strengthening, neuromuscular control, and sport-specific drills. Return-to-sport decisions should be based on passing objective criteria, including strength symmetry and hop tests, not just time. Re-injury rates are high when athletes return too early.
Can physiotherapy help prevent injuries, not just treat them?
Physiotherapy can support injury-risk management through assessment, training-load advice, and exercise tailored to your activity and goals. It cannot eliminate injury risk, and recommendations should reflect your individual history, capacity, and sport or work demands.
What conditions does physiotherapy treat?
Physiotherapy treats a wide range of musculoskeletal, neurological, and sports-related conditions. Common presentations include lower back and neck pain, disc bulges and sciatica, sports injuries (ACL, rotator cuff, hamstring tears), post-surgical rehabilitation, arthritis, work injuries, balance and falls in older adults, breathing mechanics issues, and chronic pain management. If you're unsure whether your condition is appropriate, contact us and we'll advise.
