Our pricing
What you get.
Most physio clinics hide their prices. We’d rather you knew exactly what you’re paying for — and why every dollar goes toward getting you better, faster.
The Darkside of Physio…
You’ve probably been here before…
Endless appointments with no clear end in sight. You keep going back because nobody told you when you’d be done.
Cookie-cutter exercises that don’t feel like they were made for you — because they weren’t.
No real diagnosis. You leave wondering what’s actually wrong and whether it’s getting better or you’re just getting used to it.
Sticker shock at the end — nobody mentioned the pricing until you were already in the room.
That’s not physio. That’s a subscription to uncertainty.
Come to the Brightside!
Every session at Brightside is built around three commitments. This is why we’re different — and why it’s worth it.

Our Pricing
Why we’re worth it.
We’re not the cheapest physio in Newcastle. We know that. Here’s what you’re actually paying for:
Longer appointments.
Your initial consult is up to 60 minutes. That’s enough time to properly assess, diagnose, build your plan, and start treatment — all in one visit. Most clinics give you 20.
Fewer sessions overall.
A correct diagnosis from day one means you’re not wasting weeks (and money) treating the wrong thing. Most Brightside patients see real change in 4–6 sessions. Compare that to months of appointments going nowhere.
Clinicians trained by world-leading physios.
Our team isn’t guessing. They’re using evidence-based methods taught by the best in the field, and recommended by Newcastle’s top surgeons, sports doctors and GPs.
You’ll know what you’re up for.
We tell you the plan, the pricing, and the timeline upfront. No surprises, no open-ended billing, no guilt about stopping.

Health Funds + Medicare
Your out-of-pocket is almost always less than the listed price. Here’s how:
Private health insurance: We process your rebate on the spot through our payment terminal. We accept 99% of funds — your out-of-pocket depends on your level of cover.
Medicare CDM Plans: If your GP puts you on a Chronic Disease Management Plan, we can claim $61.80 back per session (2026 rate). You get 5 allied health visits per calendar year, resetting each January.
How it works: You pay the full fee at the time of your appointment, and we process the rebate back to your debit card immediately. Simple.
Quick tip: The Medicare rebate is often higher than your private health rebate. If you’re eligible for both, we usually recommend using Medicare first, then switching to private health for any additional sessions.
Pensioner and concession rates are available across all appointment types. Just let us know when you book.
Don’t let pain pull down the life you love.
Book your first session and find out exactly what’s going on, what it’ll take to fix it, and what it’ll run you. No surprises.
