Corona Virus (Service Status)! 5/5/20
Thank you for everyone who has used our Telehealth services in the month of April. Your co-operation to continue your rehab at home has helped not only keeping yourself and our staff safe but also the vulnerable populations such as our parents and grandparents.
As per 4th May 2020 we are OPEN again for to all face-to-face bookings in the clinic. Telehealth will continue to be available in May and June. Group exercise classes, however, will remain ONLINE only, following the distancing principles.
Service status as of 07/4/2020
The NSW government has advised clinics to stay OPEN and continue to deliver physio & rehab services.
We believe at this point the more people that stay at home, the more lives can be saved. We encourage our patients to stay at home and reduce their visits to clinics. Whilst many clinics are still open, we have made the decision to limit our face-to-face consultations to protect our staff & patients, and still ensuring services are accessible. This will also help patients with needs for rehab and pain management in case of a possible stage 3 lockdown in NSW/country.
We encourage all our clients to sign up a Telehealth account with us NOW (free).
Simply reply with subject title "Telehealth sign up" to helpdesk@amphysio.com.au
Important changes in the Active Motion clinic
-
effective from 6th April 2020
1. We are limiting our in-person consultation in the clinic for the month of april.
To ensure people can still access our essential services without compromising their health and safety, we have a compulsory free 15 minutes ONLINE screening.
This will help us,
1. To provide useful pain management & treatment advice
2. To determine whether a face-to-face in clinic consultation is necessary
Following services will definitely warrant in person consultation in the clinic.
1. Post surgical Rehab (ACL rehab, knee or hip joint replacement rehab)
2. Fractures management
3. Acute pain & injury
2. We have invested in and deployed a new injury management system "PhysiApp". This platform enables us to perform a Telehealth service including:
Remote face-to-face assessments
Delivery injury advice
4000+ rehabilitation exercises & self treatment techniques
Our goals are to reduce 80% of face-to-face consult in the clinic

Face-to-face appointments are reduced and capped per day to ensure patients are taken in the consultation room straight away without the need to use the waiting area. We also ask from you that you avoid bringing family or friend to your consult.
- Alcohol based sanitisers are available throughout the clinic and surgical masks compulsory for staff.
Patients can also request a surgical mask on demand.
