  • As from 2010 we are delighted to be able to announce that Mornington Osteopathy will be consulting on Mondays and Thursdays at The Sports Injury Clinic in Frankston at 361 Nepean Highway.

    TSIC has a well deserved reputation as the place to go for manual therapy treatment in Frankston and will offer our patients access to much better facilities. We will have access to specialist medical practitioners, gym classes and with over 1,000 patients a week passing through the doors we also feel it’s a great way to provide osteopathic treatment to a ever wider range of people.

  • WorkCover, TAC and Veterans Affairs patients are eligible for osteopathic treatment. Patients may also be covered for osteopathic treatment under an Extended Care Plan (ECP) which means up to five treatments could be subsidised by Medicare. Speak to your doctor to see if you're eligible.
