Allied Health in Bowral
HealthPlex Bowral brings multidisciplinary allied health care to the Southern Highlands from 4-10 Funston Street, within the Bupa Bowral Medical Hub. It gives people in Bowral and the surrounding Highlands towns a local pathway to assessment, treatment and structured rehabilitation — managing pain and injury, restoring movement and function, and supporting recovery after surgery, a road accident or a workplace injury — without the two-hour round trip to Sydney or Wollongong that Highlands residents have long accepted as the price of specialist-level care.
Bowral is the commercial heart of the Southern Highlands — a cool-climate town ninety minutes south-west of Sydney, known for the heritage shopfronts and cafes of Bong Bong Street, the Bradman Museum beside its famous cricket oval, and the spring Tulip Time festival that fills Corbett Gardens. The Southern Highlands Line links the town to Campbelltown, Sydney and Goulburn, and its mix of retirees, tree-changers and young families sustains steady demand for local health services. Funston Street sits just off the town centre, a short walk from both the Bong Bong Street shops and Bowral station.

The health needs of a regional town like Bowral look different from those of a metropolitan suburb. The Southern Highlands has one of the older age profiles in New South Wales, which brings a higher share of osteoarthritis, joint replacements, balance and falls concerns, and chronic conditions such as diabetes that benefit from coordinated podiatry, dietetics and exercise physiology input. At the same time, the region’s active outdoor culture — golf, cricket, tennis, bushwalking, cycling on the Highlands’ hilly back roads — produces its steady share of sprains, strains and overuse injuries. Because the clinic sits inside a medical hub, the allied health team can work from your GP’s referral and report back to the same practice, keeping everyone involved in your care reading from the same plan.
WorkCover and CTP injury treatment in Bowral
Injured at work or on the road? The Bowral team treats patients under NSW workers compensation (icare-insured claims, regulated by SIRA) and CTP Green Slip claims after motor accidents — and handles the parts that make claims stressful: treatment approvals, insurer paperwork and progress reporting, and coordination with your employer or case manager on a structured return-to-work plan. For Highlands workers that means claim-funded treatment close to home instead of a trip to Sydney or Wollongong. The evidence is clear that early, structured treatment shortens claims and gets better outcomes — see what actually drives return to work.

A clinic inside the Bupa Bowral Medical Hub
The Bowral clinic operates within the Bupa Bowral Medical Hub on Funston Street rather than as a stand-alone shopfront — a deliberate choice that puts allied health alongside general practice under one roof. For patients, that means a GP consultation and the allied health follow-up it leads to can happen at the same address, which keeps referrals simple and cuts down on repeat trips into town. Getting there is easy too: Funston Street is just off the town centre, a short walk from both Bowral station on the Southern Highlands Line and the Bong Bong Street shops, so the clinic is within reach for Mittagong, Moss Vale, Burradoo, Berrima, Robertson and the surrounding villages — by train, by car or on foot from the middle of town.
Referrals, Medicare and funded care
Most people can simply book — no referral is needed for standard private appointments. If your care is funded, the team works across all the common pathways:
Structured treatment and return-to-work after a work or road injury — approvals and insurer reporting handled.
Chronic Disease Management plans arranged by your GP.
Allied health supports delivered under your plan.
Care for veterans under DVA referral arrangements.
Bring your plan or claim details to the first visit and the team will handle the paperwork. GPs, insurers and case managers can send patients directly via refer to us. Managing a workplace injury?

How do I get to the Bowral clinic by train or on foot?
Funston Street is just off the Bowral town centre, a short walk from both Bowral station on the Southern Highlands Line and the Bong Bong Street shops. If you are coming from Mittagong, Moss Vale or Burradoo, the train stops at Bowral and the hub is an easy walk from the platform.
Do I need a GP referral before booking allied health in Bowral?
No — most appointments can be booked directly online or by phone. A referral only matters if you want to use a specific funding pathway, such as a Medicare Chronic Disease Management plan, workers compensation, CTP, NDIS or DVA. Because the clinic shares its address with general practice at the medical hub, arranging that referral is straightforward.

Yes. The clinic treats injured workers under NSW workers compensation (icare-insured claims, regulated by SIRA) and people injured in motor accidents under CTP Green Slip claims. Bring your claim number and insurer details to the first visit — the team manages treatment approvals and reporting, and coordinates with your employer, insurer or case manager on your return to work.
