What is a therapy assistant?
Therapy Assistants, also known as allied health assistants, are there to support participants and health practitioners such as physiotherapists, exercise physiologists and occupational therapists.
Their role is to provide therapeutic support. This often involves implementing exercise programs under the guidance of a health practitioner. However, therapy assistants are not replacements of your usual health practitioner. They are limited in the ability to make clinical assessments and recommend new treatments.

Why have a mobile therapy assistant in your team?
Therapy assistants are a cost-effective way of continuing to provide treatment for participants as they are billed at a much lower rate. A therapy assistant may be billed at 2-3 times lower than a health practitioner.
By having a therapy assistant, you will be able to double or triple your therapy input, without going over your budget.
- Cost-effective
- Accessible
- Personalized

Therapy Assistance with Home Physio Melbuorne
Allen is a 25 year old male with cerebral palsy and is currently receiving home-based physiotherapy from Home Physio Melbourne. He is currently being seen once a fortnight by physiotherapy as allowed by his budget. However, he finds difficulty with motivating himself to complete his exercises between each session.
Josh, our therapy assistant, now visits Allen in between each physiotherapy session. Now Allen is receiving twice the amount of therapy input without increasing his budget. Most importantly, Allen is now able to achieve his goals of being stronger and more mobile sooner.
