PPSC Kids · ages 0 – 16

Physio that feels like playtime.

Torticollis, toe-walking, wobbly ankles, post-op rehab, sensory-motor work. Our paediatric studio is purpose-built and disguised as a treehouse-and-rainbow obstacle course.

What we do

From baby wriggles to teen sports.

Four of our physios have advanced training in paediatrics. Every session runs in our dedicated Kids studio — no shared treatment rooms, no scratchy medical vibes.

A note for parents

You know your kid best. We're here to listen first.

Most first appointments start with you telling us the story — when you first noticed it, what the GP or paediatrician thought, what you're worried about. Then we watch your kid play, assess gently, and agree on a plan together. No lectures. Plenty of evidence. Parent-led home programmes that fit into real family life.

Quick questions

Stuff parents ask us a lot.

Do I need a GP referral?

Nope. You can book a paediatric physio appointment directly. Some funding streams (NDIS, Medicare EPC, paediatrician referral) do need paperwork — we'll guide you.

Do you bulk-bill?

We bulk-bill Medicare EPC visits for kids where possible. Private health rebates are claimed on the spot via HICAPS.

What if my kid is shy / hates doctors?

Same. That's why our Kids studio is full of toys, colours and zero white-coat vibes. First visit = getting to know each other. No poking required if we don't need to.

Can I bring siblings?

Yes. Bring the whole crew — our front-of-house team will keep the others busy.
