What You Get in Your Happy Hour Assessment
This isn't a rushed consultation. It's the same thorough initial assessment we provide all our patients just at a time that works better for both of us.
Comprehensive Movement Analysis
We watch how your whole body moves, not just the painful bit. Whether you're a runner, cyclist, CrossFit athlete, swimmer, ultramarathon runner, olympic lifter or desk worker, we assess your complete movement patterns.
Detailed Injury History
We actually listen to your complete story without watching the clock. You get the full 45 minutes—15 more than the industry standard of 30 minutes.
Biomechanical Testing
Joint mobility, muscle strength, and movement patterns assessed. For serious cases, we use VALD testing equipment for objective measurements.
Sport-Specific Evaluation
We evaluate based on your actual goals—whether that's getting back to running, fixing your squat form, or just walking the dog pain-free. We specialise in treating running injuries, cycling injuries, CrossFit injuries, shoulder pain, knee pain, back, neck and hip pain.
Immediate Hands-On Treatment
You won't leave without getting some hands-on work done. Manual therapy, dry needling, soft tissue work—whatever you need to feel progress on day one.
Clear Diagnosis & Plan
No medical jargon. Just straight talk about what's wrong, why it happened, and a realistic timeline for getting better. According to the Australian Physiotherapy Association, this comprehensive approach to assessment is the gold standard for physiotherapy care.
Detailed Email Follow-Up
Within 48 hours after your Happy Hour appointment, you'll receive:
Your specific diagnosis and what caused it
Week-by-week recovery timeline
Personalised exercise program with video demonstrations
Expected milestones for return to activity
Book a Happy Hour Physio Consult
The Evolutio Team would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which the clinic is situated. This land belongs and always will belong to the Woiworrung and Boonwurrung peoples, who speak the traditional Indigenous languages of Woiwurring and Daungwurrung.
As a team, we pay our respects to the vibrant and endless Indigenous culture of this country and to the leadership of Elders past, present and emerging. Recognising their strength and resilience, as this land was taken from them, and that sovereignty was never ceded.

Frequently Asked Questions About Happy Hour Physiotherapy
Why is Happy Hour cheaper?
Simple: Tuesday and Thursday midday slots are typically our quieter times. Rather than leave them empty, we'd rather fill them at a discounted rate and help more Melburnians get the care they need. You get the same quality—just better value. According to research on healthcare accessibility, flexible pricing models help make quality healthcare more accessible to communities.
Is this really the same as a regular appointment?
Yes. Same 45-minute duration. Same thorough assessment. Same expert physiotherapists. Same hands-on treatment. Same detailed email follow-up. The only difference is the time slot and the price. Read about what happens during your first physio session.
Can I use my private health insurance?
Absolutely! We process claims instantly via HICAPS. Your out-of-pocket cost will be even lower with health insurance—typically around $25-60 depending on your level of cover. Learn more about physiotherapy and private health insurance.
What if I need follow-up appointments?
Follow-up treatments are our standard rate of $125 for 30 minutes. If you continue booking during Happy Hour slots (Tues/Thurs 11am-4pm), the same $125 rate applies to your follow-ups too! Learn about how many times a week you should go to physiotherapy.
How far in advance should I book?
Happy Hour slots are popular! We recommend booking 1-2 weeks in advance. Same-week appointments are sometimes available—check online or call us.
Can existing patients book Happy Hour?
Happy Hour pricing is primarily for new patients on their initial assessment. However, if you're an existing patient and Happy Hour times work better for your schedule, give us a call—we'll see what we can do.
What should I bring to my appointment?
Just yourself and any relevant imaging (X-rays, MRIs, scans) if you have them. Wear comfortable clothing you can move in. That's it! Read our complete guide on preparing for your first physio appointment.
Is there parking available?
Yes! We have three free parks in front of our clinic. There's also free 2-4 hour street parking nearby. Richmond Station is just an 8-minute walk if you're catching the train.
How long is this offer available?
Happy Hour is an ongoing offer, available every Tuesday and Thursday from 11am-4pm. It's not a limited-time promotion—it's just how we schedule our midday appointments.
Can I book for someone else?
Yes! Happy Hour makes a great gift. You can book and pay for a friend or family member. Just include their details when booking.
Do I need a referral from my GP?
No. In Australia, you can book directly with a physiotherapist without a referral (except for WorkCover, TAC, and some insurance schemes). Learn more about whether physios are covered under Medicare.
What if I'm running late to my appointment?
Please call us as soon as possible. We'll do our best to accommodate you, but if you're more than 15 minutes late, we may need to reschedule to ensure the next patient isn't affected.
Can I change or cancel my Happy Hour booking?
Yes, we understand life happens. Please give us at least 24 hours notice to avoid a cancellation fee. You can reschedule via phone, WhatsApp, or email.
What's the difference between a physiotherapist and other healthcare providers?
Physiotherapists are registered healthcare professionals with university qualifications in human movement, injury assessment, and rehabilitation. Read our article on whether it's better to see a doctor or physiotherapist.
Will my treatment hurt?
Some treatments may cause temporary discomfort, but we always work within your pain tolerance. Our goal is therapeutic discomfort, not pain. We'll communicate with you throughout to ensure you're comfortable.
How long until I see results?
This varies depending on your condition. Acute injuries may improve within days, while chronic conditions can take several weeks. During your Happy Hour assessment, we'll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific situation.
Can I do Happy Hour if I've never been to physio before?
Absolutely! Happy Hour is perfect for first-timers. Our comprehensive 45-minute assessment is ideal for establishing a baseline and creating your personalized treatment plan. Read about how to choose a good physiotherapist.
Do you offer Happy Hour for other services?
Currently, Happy Hour pricing is only available for initial physiotherapy assessments. Remedial massage and follow-up treatments are at standard rates.
Can I claim Happy Hour appointments through WorkCover or TAC?
Yes, but there will be a gap payment. WorkCover and TAC don't cover the full fee for our 45-minute assessments. Contact us for specific gap amounts.
What makes Evolutio different from other Richmond physio clinics?
We offer longer appointments (45 vs 30 minutes), the same physiotherapist every visit, detailed treatment plans, and a unique non-clinical environment. Plus, we're Richmond's highest-rated physio clinic. Learn more about what makes us different.
Is Happy Hour suitable for children or elderly patients?
Yes! Our physiotherapists are experienced in treating all ages. However, if you have specific concerns about a child or elderly patient, please mention this when booking so we can match you with the most appropriate physiotherapist.
