Can I claim the cost of my physiotherapy on my Private Medical Insurance?

Our Physiotherapy in Edinburgh is widely used to treat musculoskeletal issues and is often recognized by private health insurance plans. Generally, Physiotherapy treatment must be referred by a GP or specialist before the cost can be covered under an individual's policy with their chosen provider. We recommend that patients contact their insurance company for clarification on their policy in advance to ensure the best possible outcome for Physiotherapy treatments. If you are seeking Physiotherapy treatment, it is important to ask special questions to check with your insurance company before you start the therapy. Questions such as if there is an excess on the policy, how much insurance cover is available, what type of financial assistance is provided, and if there is a time limit for the treatment should all be asked prior. Also, in some instances, Health by Science physiotherapy may invoice the insurance company directly so make sure you bring your insurance membership details and authorization details along as well. This way, you can rest assured that everything has been addressed before commencing physiotherapy treatment.

What should I bring with me on my Initial Appointment?

If you're seeking Physiotherapy in Edinburgh, gathering the right documents and items is key. Be sure to bring your referral letter from a GP or consultant to your Physiotherapy appointment, as well as all of your insurance details and corresponding claim number if you intend on us billing directly. Additionally, please ensure you bring any relevant x-rays or scan results that are related to your injury or condition. To make sure you're comfortable during your Physiotherapy session, we suggest bringing shorts and/or a vest-type top as well.

I've got an injury - how soon should I come and see you for assessment and treatment?

We strongly believe in timely intervention following an injury. Prompt examination and appropriate physiotherapy advice can help ensure that the healing process is expedited, minimizing any discomfort you may experience during the recovery phase. In addition, for those who have recently undergone surgery, your Consultant will be able to suggest the best time to commence physiotherapy as part of your rehabilitation. Should you be unsure regarding when Physiotherapy treatment should begin, please do not hesitate to call us; one of our experts would be delighted to provide assistance and guidance.

I have had 5 sessions with Alex, and have been very impressed with how much he has helped 3 rugby injuries i have had problems with for years. I only started 2 months ago and have seen a significant improvement with pain and mobility. I have already recommended multiple people to try this as it has really helped me in all aspects if life. I will definitely keep attending and urge anyone else who have any issues to give it a try.

I've been going here for a number of years for various sports related injuries and niggles. I've always received clear, practical instruction with a realistic path and timeline back to fitness. I've happily recommended friends to go here before too, who also had a good experience.

I recently had a free 15 minute consultation with Stuart for ongoing knee pain. What a fantastic service to offer. By filling in a detailed, easy to complete form in advance, I had a really informative and useful chat with Stuart over the phone which really helped me get a full understanding of the issue and a firm steer as to the course of treatment. No pressure to continue with a paid ongoing treatment plan but very helpful to know the option is there should I need to return to it.

Having sustained an injury to my spine I was reffered to Ciara for physio, to say that I was happy would be an understatement I felt that Ciara was always welcoming when I arrived she listened to any concerns that I had about my injury and the consequences of it and through her guidance and encouragement she helped me back to fitness. I felt that it would have been easy to dwell on the pain and imagine that I would never recover (which is not me) but Ciara coached me back to fitness and pointed me in the correct direction to recovery. I recommend Ciara to my friends, students and family as I have had nothing but a professional and positive experience. She is a great physio not my first but definitely the best.

I was recommended to Health by Science from a friend, I saw Ciara regarding shoulder pain that I had, I got exercises to do each week and it really helped, there was no hard sell to keep coming back as I had experienced with another Physio I used a few years ago. It has now been 3 months since I last saw Ciara and my shoulder is so much better, I do the exercises a couple of times a week and it has made such a difference. I would not hesitate to see Ciara again in the future if I required further assistance, she was a really lovely person.

Alex took time to understand my needs alongside my injury (knee replacement). This was really important to me. After my sessions with Alex I went from walking with crutches to completing a 190km bike ride with friends. Couldn't have done it without him.

I needed a massage as soon as possible as I had lots of pressure on my neck giving me headache. I've called the clinic, Miko answered and gave me an appointment for the same day at 20:30. I didn't expect to get an appointment so quickly and at that time! Absolutely lovely!

Miko was a lovely guy, we've been chatting during the session and I could tell the passion he has for his job! I will definitely go back soon!
