Telehealth Physiotherapy & Allied Health Care

When travelling to a clinic feels exhausting, impractical, or simply not possible, your care should not stop. Telehealth at Next Wave Therapy provides expert-led physiotherapy, occupational therapy, mental health OT and naturopathic support — delivered securely online, without compromising clinical quality.

This service is designed for people who need specialist insight, structured guidance, and genuine continuity of care, but require flexibility. Whether you live remotely, manage chronic pain, are recovering from surgery, or are short on time, telehealth may offer a practical and effective way to stay supported.

No travel. No waiting room. Just focused, personalised care — from clinicians experienced in managing complex presentations both in-clinic and online.

When In-Clinic Care Isn’t Practical — Telehealth May Be the Solution

Many people delay or discontinue treatment because attending appointments feels too hard. Common challenges include:

Telehealth removes these barriers while preserving what matters most: clinical reasoning, education, guided movement, and collaborative problem-solving.

For many conditions — particularly chronic pain, hypermobility, post-surgical rehab, and mental health-related physical symptoms — outcomes may be strongly influenced by education, pacing, movement quality, and behaviour change. 

These elements translate effectively to an online setting when delivered by experienced clinicians.
