NDIS Support at Focus For Life: Physiotherapy, Exercise Physiology & Speech Therapy

If you or a loved one are on the NDIS, finding the right therapy support can feel overwhelming.

You might be wondering:

  • What services are actually covered?

  • Which therapy is right for us?

  • How do we make the most of our NDIS plan?

At Focus For Life, we support both children and adults with NDIS-funded Physiotherapy, Exercise Physiology, and Speech Therapy — helping participants improve their movement, communication, independence, and everyday function.

Whether your goals are related to development, recovery, strength, communication, or participation in daily life, our team is here to help.


Speech Therapy (Speech Pathology)

Speech therapy isn’t just about talking.

Our speech therapists support children who may be experiencing:

  • Delayed speech or language development

  • Difficulty understanding or following instructions

  • Challenges expressing themselves

  • Social communication difficulties

  • Autism Spectrum Disorder

  • Feeding or swallowing concerns

We work on things like:

  • Helping your child communicate their needs

  • Building confidence in social settings

  • Supporting play and interaction skills

  • Improving understanding and expression

  • Developing early literacy and listening skills

We also work closely with parents, teachers, and support workers — so progress continues outside of sessions too.


Physiotherapy

NDIS Physiotherapy can support both children and adults with physical function, mobility, and independence.

This may include:

  • Developmental delays

  • Neurological conditions (e.g. stroke, cerebral palsy)

  • Mobility or balance difficulties

  • Low muscle tone

  • Hypermobility

  • Chronic pain or injury

Our physiotherapists help participants:

  • Improve strength and coordination

  • Walk and move more confidently

  • Reduce pain and injury risk

  • Improve posture and balance

  • Become more independent in daily tasks


Exercise Physiology

Exercise Physiology focuses on using structured, evidence-based exercise to improve physical capacity and overall health.

This can support:

  • Strength and endurance

  • Functional movement

  • Motor skill development

  • Fatigue management

  • Participation in work, school, or sport

  • Long-term health and wellbeing

For children, this might mean:

  • Keeping up with peers

  • Building coordination and confidence

For adults, this might mean:

  • Returning to work

  • Improving independence

  • Managing chronic health conditions

  • Increasing participation in community life

  • NDIS goals
