Cloncurry sits in the middle of some of Queensland's biggest mining and cattle country. Many locals work on stations and mine sites a long way from any clinic, so a small injury can get worse while you wait for an appointment. Telephysio Australia offers video physiotherapy that fits around station and site life.

Why people in Cloncurry use telehealth physio

• If you want to be seen privately and quickly, telehealth gives you an option this week without the drive to Mount Isa.

• Station and site work doesn't stop for appointments. A video session takes 30 to 45 minutes from wherever you have a signal.

• Getting advice early can stop a niggle becoming weeks of lost work.

Common problems we help with in Cloncurry

• Back and hip pain from horse and motorbike work, fencing and yard work

• Shoulder injuries from lifting, loading and overhead work

• Knee and ankle sprains on rough ground

• Ongoing aches from years of physical work that have never been properly assessed

Every session is with a qualified, AHPRA-registered physiotherapist. We assess the problem, explain what's going on, and build an exercise and self-management plan you can do at home or on site. If we think you need a scan or a face-to-face review, we'll tell you and help you arrange it.

For employers in Cloncurry

Local industries like mining, cattle and transport carry a high risk of musculoskeletal injury. Getting injured workers seen early matters. Research from Monash University found workers who saw a physiotherapist within 7 days of injury had a median of 8.0 weeks off work, compared with 34.7 weeks for those who waited more than 30 days (Mekonnen et al., BMC Public Health, 2025). Telephysio Australia helps Cloncurry employers get workers assessed within days, not weeks, with clear reporting for your WHS and return to work team.
