Had a good session on my shoulder the other day, first time since my recon surgery. The last time i went was years ago and I cant recall exactly what i went in for, maybe sore neck i think...anyway I think the price may have have gone up more than a bit. Before health insurance rebates it cost $85, is that the going rate these days or are we just getting slugged over her in mining boom central?

About $60 in Vic. but normaly the 1st visit costs more so the price may drop next visit.

First visit is usually higher to get a "feel" for the problem and then subsequent visits should be about $60 to $70 per............

Mine charges $60 but then again I usually go 3 or 4 times a year

WOW, I got stung. I paid $110 for a 1 hour session. But I guess he knew it was workers comp. So I guess it was the insurance crew that got stung.

But I guess WA is well behind the rest of the world, so in 10 years time you will be paying the same. Might even have DLS by then
