Your recovery pathway
From injury to full duties, mapped out clearly
Every WorkCover journey follows the same four checkpoints — how long you spend at each one is built entirely around your job and your injury.
Assess
Initial physio assessment of your injury, job demands and current capacity — claim approved or not.
Treat
Hands-on treatment to reduce pain and stiffness, using your pre-approved sessions.
Rebuild
Your Exercise Physiologist rebuilds strength, movement and confidence for your specific role.
Return
Graded return to full duties, with reporting back to your employer and case manager.
A team-based approach
Physiotherapy and Exercise Physiology, working as one
After your initial assessment, you'll also meet an Exercise Physiologist. As your symptoms ease, they take a growing role — rebuilding the strength and endurance your job actually demands.

Common questions
WorkCover, explained simply
Still unsure about your claim? Call our admin team on 1800 417 799 — just mention it's for a WorkCover claim.
What is WorkCover?
WorkCover Queensland provides insurance that helps cover the cost of treatment and rehabilitation for people injured at work. If your claim is accepted, your physiotherapy treatment is generally covered, allowing you to focus on your recovery.
Do I need a referral?
You can contact us directly to book an appointment. Many WorkCover claims involve a GP medical certificate or referral, so simply bring any paperwork you have and we'll help guide you through the process.
How many sessions are covered?
For eligible Queensland WorkCover claims, the first five physiotherapy sessions are generally pre-approved. If you require further treatment, your physiotherapist will submit a request to your insurer for approval.
Do I have to pay upfront?
In most cases, once your WorkCover claim has been accepted and we have your claim details, we can bill WorkCover directly, so you won't need to pay upfront.
What if my claim hasn't been approved yet?
You can still book an appointment. We can assess your injury, begin treatment where appropriate, and explain the next steps. Payment arrangements will depend on the status of your claim.
Can physiotherapy help me return to work?
Absolutely. Our goal is to help you reduce pain and stiffness, restore strength and movement, improve confidence with everyday activities, and build the capacity to safely return to your work duties — tailored to the physical demands of your job.
