Pricing, Rebates & Policies.
From 4th August 2026, we will be updating our allied health consultation pricing for physiotherapy, osteopathy and dietetics. This is our first significant fee review in some time and reflects the increasing costs of delivering high-quality allied health services while continuing to invest in our clinicians, facilities and patient experience.
We appreciate your ongoing support. If you have any questions about our updated fees, please don't hesitate to speak with our reception team.
CHA is a teaching clinic.
As part of our larger vision to improve the health journey of individuals with Hypermobility conditions, we may occasionally have researchers, clinicians, or students ask to sit in on your consultation. These individuals are strictly there to learn and will not participate in or disrupt the session in any way. You are always welcome to decline or ask them to step outside or leave at any time. Your comfort and privacy are our top priority.
CHA is a research clinic.
At CHA, contributing to research is a core way we give back to the Hypermobile community. We’re fortunate to have a dedicated Research and Development team with lived experience, working alongside our clinicians to generate meaningful insights. These findings help shape policymaking, inform individual management strategies, enhance clinician education, and more. Occasionally, we may use de-identified data for analysis and submission to peer-reviewed journals. You’ll have the option to opt-out of this when you onboard with our clinic.
