TeleHealth - Online Consultations
An Update From the Team Regarding COVID-19
We know it is a stressful time for everyone and we wanted to reassure you that as a Practice we are still open to provide allied health services - this means Physio, Exercise Physiology and Remedial Massage Therapy.
Our number one priority is the health and safety of our staff and clients. We are continuing to provide our allied health services to help keep everyone moving, out of pain and reaching your health goals at this uncertain time, while undertaking the highest infection control policies and procedures.
Being front line practitioners here at Tablelands Physio means that you don’t have to go to the Doctor to get a referral to see us if you have injured yourself, have pain or need help to get exercising. We can always call your Dr or refer you back if we are concerned about your situation.
As a Practice we are keeping the place super clean, Perri and Sharlene are becoming wipe down goddesses, all the door handles, hard surfaces and equipment and anything that may have been touched.
We have all undertaken the Health departments COVID-19 Infection Control Training and we are using top level hospital grade disinfectant to wipe down all surfaces between patients.
We are offering a ‘waiting room in the car’ and you can text us when you arrive, and our fabulous admin will let you know when your therapist is ready to see you. (We have stacks of hand sanitiser for you to use when you enter and leave).
We also have implemented social distancing in the waiting room, and we have moved chairs outside. The gym equipment can be moved outside if the weather permits.
We have all been getting sorted for Telehealth@Tablelands. This means that if we progress further with the Lock Down stages, or if you are unable to attend the practice due to being a high risk group, self-quarantine status or you would prefer to stay at home, we can continue with your physio / exercise physiology sessions as required.
We understand that it won’t be the same as you are used to but sometimes there can be a silver lining. With your therapist becoming a “coach” and empowering you (with their guidance) to be able to manage your pain and dysfunction, or to reach your health goals.
If you book an online consultation you will receive an email with a link to connect to the Telehealth consultation. You will be able to use your computer or phone or tablet. We can use audio and video or just audio. It’s not all that hard and hopefully it will all happen seamlessly (fingers crossed).
The main priority is that we are still able to support and provide a high level service to our valued clients throughout this tricky time.
We realise that it is difficult for everyone trying to adjust to a new routine and restrictions. Don’t forget you can still go out with your immediate family for a bushwalk or a bike ride to get everyone out of the house and to reduce cabin fever. Scheduling exercise is more important than ever with many kids and parents working from home.
Staying connected with friends and extended family is important and we are lucky to have such an amazing community, all working together to support each other. Local businesses are going to find it difficult. Buy local where you can.
Tablelands Physio have many ways to keep in contact with you all and up to date with information, these include:
Instagram @tablelandsphysio
Facebook https://www.facebook.com/tablelandsphysio/
We also have a Tablelands Physio VIP Facebook Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/375800016360805/ which you can request to join.
These pages and group will be a medium to get info out to everyone, provide tips and tricks, advice and education. We will put up more videos of exercises and advice over the coming weeks and months. The VIP group allows you to directly chat with a therapist to get some quick advice or reassurance. And of course, we will also be available via email and phone.
The main thing is for you to know that the Tablelands Team are here to help and advise you as you need and when you need it over the coming few weeks and possibly months.
So, stay healthy everyone, wash your hands, stay home where you are able to and lets get this thing squashed.
Cheers,

Online Services
If you have trouble accessing traditional 'in person' physiotherapy care, we can offer online consultations so you can commence or continue or treatment from home. Just because you are at home or in a remote location, shouldn't mean you miss out on quality injury management.
All you need is a computer with camera and Internet access, but in some cases even a telephone will do. The majority of injuries for which you would normally receive physiotherapy are suitable for an online consultation. |

Our Expertise
Our physiotherapists and other allied health professionals have experience in providing both 'in person' as well as online injury consultations, so we can work out exactly what you need to feel better and recover from your injury, even from a distance.
