What NDIS Physiotherapy Services We Offer
Keilor Road Physiotherapy is proud to be a registered provider of NDIS physiotherapy.
The NDIS is a government funded insurance scheme and is a new way of providing support for Australians with a disability, their families and carers. It empowers individuals living with a disability.
You can use your NDIS funding for physiotherapy here at Keilor Road Physiotherapy.
Keilor Road Physiotherapy’s tailored approach to healthcare means that your assessment and treatment is unique for you and your loved ones. Our focus is on preventative care and independent management strategies, aimed to exceed your healthcare goals.
We also strive to provide peace of mind to the loved ones of our NDIS participants. They can be certain that specific health needs are being met and that NDIS healthcare services are operating to improve daily living and maximise the long, active, healthy lives of our NDIS community.
Our expertise also minimises the burden of disease, falls and mortality and ensures our NDIS community have access to the highest level of health & wellness services, whether they are being delivered at our physical NDIS premises in Niddrie or in the homes of our NDIS clients.
What therapies are covered under NDIS Physiotherapy?
Keilor Road Physiotherapy is registered under the NDIS scheme for Therapeutic Supports. That means we can see any NDIS participants, who are over 7 years old (we are able to work with participants who are under 7 if they are self-managed, plan-managed or paying privately).
Therapeutic supports include a wide range of support services and products that help a NDIS participant to improve their independence and performance of daily activities.
Therapeutic supports can include those that help to improve:
communication and language skills
personal care, grooming, and hygiene
mobility, movement and pain relief
participation in the community
relationships and interpersonal interactions
Physiotherapy can exist in various sections of your NDIS plan, as a core support or as a capacity-building support. Keilor Road Physiotherapists can also provide treatment and advice to support a number of disabilities and chronic conditions, such as those who:
Have lost NDIS supports due to the COVID19 pandemic
Are deconditioned & in need of exercise therapy
Are at risk of falling in their home or within the community
Have goals of participating in sports and other recreational activities
Are seeking more independence in their lives
Have chronic pain & fatigue conditions
Are seeking pain relief or injury management
Are awaiting orthopaedic surgery or recovering from surgery
Have Parkinson’s, Huntington’s Disease, Cerebral Palsy, Multiple Sclerosis, Stroke or other neurological conditions
Have cognitive impairments (e.g. Dementia, Alzheimer’s)
Have Down Syndrome or developmental conditions
Suffer from mental illness and need holistic lifestyle solutions
Have intellectual and psychosocial disabilities
Have had amputations or significant traumatic injuries
Have sustained a head injury, acquired brain injury (ABI) or spinal cord injury
Are you eligible for NDIS physio?
The NDIS is available to Australian citizens, permanent residents and special-category visa holders who live in Australia, are aged between seven and 65 years old, and who have a permanent and significant disability. Based on the NDIS criteria, a permanent and significant disability means you either need support from another person, use special equipment or require supports to reduce your future needs. You can check your eligibility through the NDIS website.
We accept referrals from:
You, the client
Plan managers
Medical professionals
Family members of the person with the disability

How to apply for NDIS funds
The NDIS website suggests that if you believe you are eligible, the first step is to phone the NDIA, which runs the scheme, on 1800 800 110 and make an Access Request. When you call, you’ll need to confirm your identity and will be asked questions to verify your residency and eligibility. If you’re already receiving disability support services, the NDIA will contact you when NDIS funding becomes available in your area, if it isn’t already.
During the application process, you will be asked to provide evidence of your disability. This may include documents confirming your primary disability, how this disability impacts different areas of your life, descriptions of past treatments and outcomes, and future treatment options and the expected outcomes of these. This evidence can be completed by your treating health professional such as a GP, paediatrician, psychologist or allied health practitioner. This evidence should also include your date of diagnosis, details about how long the disability will last, and the treatments that are available.
If your application is accepted, you will then attend a planning meeting, where your needs and goals will be discussed. Be sure to take any relevant reports or assessments along with you to this meeting, so the resulting plan is right for your needs. After the meeting, the NDIA will process and approve your plan, and your ECEI co-ordinator, LAC or NDIA planner will let you know when this is complete.
