Osteopaths are Primary Health Care Practitioners and registered ACC providers, so you don't need a doctor's referral to be seen by us.
ACC Appointments with Osteopaths
At The Recovery Project Osteopathy Clinic in Cromwell, NZ, we are proud to be a registered ACC (Accident Compensation Corporation) provider. This means that if you have been injured in an accident, you may be eligible for subsidised treatments through ACC.
What is ACC?
ACC is a New Zealand government organisation that provides no fault personal injury financial support and assistance for injuries related to accidents. ACC may contribute to the cost of our services which, include a wide range of accidents/ injuries including workplace injuries, motor vehicle accidents and injuries from every day incidents.
How ACC Appointments Work
Initial Assessment: If you've been injured, you can visit our clinic for an initial assessment. Our team will evaluate your condition, discuss your symptoms, and determine the best course of treatment.
ACC Claim: If your injury is accident-related, we can help you lodge an ACC claim. This involves filling out a simple form before or during your visit. Once the claim is lodged, ACC will assess your case and decide on the coverage.
Treatment Plan: Once your ACC claim is approved, we will develop a personalised treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. This may include a combination of osteopathic techniques, such as joint manipulation, soft tissue massage, and exercise rehabilitation.
Ongoing Care: Our osteopaths will provide ongoing care and support throughout your recovery process. ACC covers a certain number of treatments, and we will work with you to ensure you receive the necessary care within this framework.
