Physiotherapy Services

Next Step Health is a home-visiting Physiotherapy practice. Our focus is on optimising the course of aging for our clients. We first began offering Physiotherapy in 2015.

We provide in-home services, the majority of the time, we are helping people in their homes. The mobile nature of our healthcare means that we also help people within the community, such as workplaces, swimming pools and local parks.

We travel to meet clients wherever they need us. Additionally, we utilise several well-equipped venues across the Greater Brisbane Area, including Quany’s Gym in Woolloongabba and a dedicated lane at Sleeman Aquatic Centre for hydrotherapy.

We also offer group exercise classes at The Community Place in Stafford. For new clients, we often arrange a one-on-one meeting at the exercise venue to ensure they feel comfortable before joining a class or program.

  • We also offer a Fit For Aging program to support clients over the age of 60

We encourage our clients to schedule an annual (or sometimes biannual) reassessment to measure strength, balance, mobility, agility.

It provides an opportunity to compare results with norms for the client’s age, to look at change over time, and to proactively address any areas of concern.

Who Can Access Physiotherapy Services?

We offer support to people of all ages, from older adults to younger people with disabilities. We help our clients to be proactive and to maintain their strength and agility in ways that help prevent some of the key functional declines that can come with aging.

We work with adults and older adults throughout Brisbane under a number of different funding options, namely:

  • Self-funded clients, or those who are covered by private health insurance
  • NDIS participants
  • Home Care Package clients

We also help clients to access short term or long term funding options such as Commonwealth Home Support or Short Term Restorative Care for people aged over 65.
