We empower people —
live the life, you choose

To us, you matter —

If previous physiotherapy efforts didn’t deliver the results you hoped for, you might have unfairly blamed yourself, thinking more time or stricter adherence to advice would have made a difference. However, you likely sense that the problem wasn’t solely your fault. A generic, one-size-fits-all treatment approach didn’t address your unique needs, leaving you feeling like you were forced into a mould that didn’t fit.

At Barefoot, we understand the frustration of impersonal treatment. We believe you should never feel like just another appointment or be rushed through a superficial care process.

We strive to create a space where you are truly seen, heard, and valued. From your first visit, we focus on understanding your unique story and goals, ensuring that every aspect of your care is personalised.

Our deep knowledge of your needs and preferences allows us to craft a tailored treatment plan that aligns perfectly with your individual goals. At Barefoot, we are committed to excellence, combining the expertise of Brisbane’s top therapists with a personalised approach to support your journey to improvement.

Are you a Barefooter?

WE THRIVE WHEN WORKING WITH PEOPLE WHO LEAN INTO LIFE AND WHO PREFER A TREATMENT APPROACH THAT HONOURS THEIR UNIQUENESS.

You’re not just another client; you inspire our passion. Our ideal clients have a joy for life and a curiosity about themselves and the world. If you’re seeking support on your journey to feeling better and doing what you love, we’re here for you.

You value honest communication, feeling welcomed, and being truly listened to. You appreciate highly prepared, knowledgeable and caring health professionals.

If this resonates with you, you embody the ‘Barefooter’ mindset — a healing partnership actively participating in your recovery, and committing to a therapy plan designed specifically for you. We’re excited to join you on your personalised wellness journey.

We exist to empower people to confidently live the lives they choose 

What to expect —
your first appointment

Our physiotherapy Brisbane approach is based on a partnership between you and us. This starts with us truly knowing and understanding your story and why you have come to Barefoot for help.

We then use specific nerve and orthopaedic tests to determine our initial hands-on treatment plan that starts you on the road to recovery.

As you progress through the treatment plan, we utilise our full body assessment and testing to determine the root cause of your problem. We then treat it, teach you how to treat it and teach you how to take care of it for now and the future.

Throughout this process, we will incorporate postural retraining, strength work and individualised education to ensure you understand what is best for your body, getting you back to living the highest quality of life

Our one-on-one sessions can help to improve and treat a wide range of musculoskeletal concerns and injuries. Whether you’re in your older years and are dealing with chronic pain, or you’re an extremely active person and have found yourself injured, we’re confident that our physiotherapists can find the short-term solution for relief, and the long-term plan for the prevention of reoccurrence.

There is no shortage of physiotherapy clinics in QLD, which means that choosing the right one can seem like a tall order. At Barefoot, we are led by passion and driven by results. With each client that we treat, we ensure that you receive a hands-on, compassionate, and professional treatment from our team of local physio professionals.

We are passionate about what we do, and we are constantly learning, growing, and improving to ensure that we stay up to date with the latest industry advancements. Our approach to physiotherapy services is constantly evolving to ensure that our clients receive the best service and professional advice.

It’s a great question, and one that all of our clients want to know! Getting you back on your feet a moving pain-free is our number one goal.

For some clients, you may see improvements in as little as one session. For most, you may require a few physio treatments to get you on the road to recovery. It really depends on the injuries faced and how we can help. In general, our goal is to reduce the number of visits that are required to get you moving properly and thereby reduce the overall cost of treatment.

Once we have a blueprint and pinpoint the root cause of the problem, we outline a timeframe for recovery and indicate how many treatment sessions will be required. Our aim is to get you back on your feet, living your best life.

Yes! Our goal is to identify the underlying cause behind injuries and ensure that we put together a plan that will enable long-term mobility and results. Once we have identified the underlying cause of your injury, our dedicated Physio Brisbane team can put together a customised treatment plan.

During the first few sessions, our Physiotherapists will be searching for areas in your body that may be contributing to the problem. During this time we will thoroughly assess your injury to identify the root of the problem which will save time in the long run and make your recovery more efficient and your treatment more cost-effective.

We are conveniently located 20-minutes from Brisbane City and Brisbane CBD which means that you can arrive, park, and leave as quickly as possible.

Barefoot is located at the ‘Red Brick House’ 28 Curzon St, Tennyson Q4105 (near the Queensland Tennis Centre). You can turn left into Curzon St from Tennyson Memorial Ave but if coming from Graceville/Chelmer direction you will need to go via Walker St. We service all surrounding neighbourhoods of our clinic; providing the leading physio services in the area.

Please wear loose-fitting clothes that enable you to move and stretch freely for your consultation.

We recommend: running/exercise type shorts or tights and a loose top or singlet.

If you are coming from work or another appointment, we have a toilet and changeroom at the clinic so that you can change before your consultation. We also provide shorts (XS-3XL) and singlets/tshirts (S-XL) in the changeroom should you require them.

From the get-go, we want to ensure that you’re getting treatment that is entirely tailored for you, your injuries and your rehabilitation. As such, we recommend that our new clients book an hour-long initial consultation – which costs $182 (General Physio) or $284 (Senior Physio). The 60-minute initial appointment allows us to assess your body and create a fully tailored, customised treatment plan.

Private Health Extras can be claimed on the spot using our HICAPS machines. To check how much your private health company pays you can check the codes 500 (initial consult) and 505 (follow up). Please note we are not a preferred provider for any of the health funds.

Follow up appointments vary in costs depending on which physiotherapist you work with. Follow ups range from $142 to $182 for a half-hour session depending on physio level. Rebates are available for clients covered by Medicare ($60/session) and referred by your GP.

Most of our clients do not need a referral to book an appointment with our physiotherapists. You can simply make a booking by either giving us a call on 1300 842 850 or booking online.

For those that are eligible to receive a rebate from Medicare under the GP Management Plan, a referral from your GP is required for up to 5 sessions. Please note that the rebate is currently $60 (Feb 2025). For those that have reached their Medicare Safety Net the rebate increases to ~80% of the appointment fee.
