Our Physio Services Covered by ACC

We provide a wide range of ACC physio treatments tailored to your exact needs. Whether you’re recovering from a sprain, strain, or injury, our services include hands-on therapy, exercise programmes, and additional care like acupuncture. While standalone Pilates or massage isn’t covered by ACC, we incorporate these into your treatment plan where needed.

Understanding ACC Physio Claims

At its core, ACC physio claims cover the cost of treating injuries caused by:

  • Accidents and Intentional Injuries — eg: a sports injury or assault
  • Work-related gradual processes — eg: tendonitis from constant heavy lifting
  • Treatment injury — eg: a sprain caused by a medical mishap

This is a great way for our patients to focus on recovery without the added stress of financial burden. However, for your peace of mind, we recommend checking your eligibility through ACC’s official site, before formally lodging a claim with your physio or GP.

Understanding ACC Costs and Charges

ACC covers most of the cost of physiotherapy, but there’s usually a small co-payment. At Cairnhill, we keep our ACC physio charges transparent, so you know exactly what to expect.

If you have private insurance, it may help cover any additional costs. For a full breakdown of our fees, visit our fees page.

Hired an ice and compression machine from Cairnhill Physio for use after a total knee joint replacement. The machine was excellent.
Put out my back and made an appointment with Harley. During this period, I also sustained an injury to my soleus muscle, which was also treated.
I have recently been cleared to return to sport after my ACL reconstruction. The team at Cairnhill have been amazing.
