Need a Certificate of Capacity? Get One Today — No Gap, No GP Wait.
An AHPRA-registered physio can issue your Certificate of Capacity for most musculoskeletal injuries.
Back, neck, shoulder, knee, lifting injuries — walk in with pain, walk out with your certificate, a treatment plan, and your paperwork lodged with WorkSafe.
Yes, A Physio Can Issue Your Certificate of Capacity
Under WorkSafe Victoria, an AHPRA-registered physiotherapist can issue and sign a Certificate of Capacity for most musculoskeletal injuries. You don’t need to see a GP first.
Most workers don’t know this. They book a GP appointment, wait three days, lose a shift, and the injury gets worse in the meantime. If your injury is musculoskeletal — a back strain, a lifting injury, a shoulder, a knee, neck pain, RSI — we can issue your certificate at your first appointment and lodge it with WorkSafe on the spot.
What you walk out with on day one
- Certificate of Capacity signed and lodged
- Hands-on treatment for your injury
- A rehab plan, including supervised gym sessions if appropriate
- No paperwork to chase

WorkCover
We issue your Certificate of Capacity, lodge it with WorkSafe, and bill no-gap. You pay nothing. We handle the paperwork.
Not sure if your injury qualifies, or don’t have a claim number yet?
Sound Familiar?
If any of this sounds like you, you’re not alone. Most of our WorkCover patients felt the same way before they came in.
Your employer told you to get a Certificate of Capacity.
You’ve never had to do this before. You don’t know what it is, who issues it, or how the claim works.
Your GP can’t see you until next week.
Meanwhile you’re not working, not earning, and the pain isn’t getting any better.
You’re worried about the cost.
Will you be out of pocket? Will the claim be approved? Will it be a hassle to deal with?
You just want someone to walk you through it.
Without making you feel stupid for not knowing how WorkCover works.
