Allied Health in Silkstone
HealthPlex Silkstone is a multidisciplinary allied health clinic inside the Silkstone Village shopping centre — Shop 14, on the corner of Blackstone and Grange Roads in Ipswich. From this one convenient spot the team supports people across Silkstone, Booval, Newtown, East Ipswich, Blackstone and Eastern Heights: treating pain and injury, restoring movement and function, and helping locals get back to work, sport and everyday life — whether you have a GP or specialist referral, a WorkCover Queensland or NDIS plan, or you simply want to be seen quickly without heading into Brisbane.
Silkstone sits about three kilometres east of the Ipswich city centre, a pocket of early-1900s and interwar timber homes on generous blocks that grew up around the coalfields east of town — Blackstone Road itself runs out toward the old mining villages that gave the district its living. Today the suburb centres on its Coles-anchored village shopping strip, with buses 500, 502, 503 and 514 stopping along Blackstone Road and Booval and East Ipswich stations a short drive away. It is an area of families, retirees and shift workers — exactly the mix of backs, knees, feet and workloads an allied health team sees every day.

WorkCover and CTP injury treatment in Silkstone
Injured at work or on the road? Ipswich people work hard — in healthcare, manufacturing, transport and logistics, construction and defence — and the Silkstone team treats patients under Queensland workers compensation (WorkCover Queensland) and Queensland CTP claims after motor accidents, handling 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. The evidence is clear that early, structured treatment close to home shortens claims and gets better outcomes — see what actually drives return to work.
Physio, psychology and rehab under your WorkCover Queensland claim — bring your claim number and insurer details.
Treatment under a Queensland CTP claim after a motor vehicle accident, with reporting handled for your CTP insurer.

A clinic inside Silkstone Village
Being inside the Coles-anchored village centre matters more than it sounds. There is customer parking on site rather than a hunt for street spaces, level access from the car park to the shop front, and the supermarket, the chemist and a coffee within the same trip. Buses 500, 502, 503 and 514 stop along Blackstone Road right outside, and Booval and East Ipswich stations are both a short drive away. For older patients, parents with prams and anyone recovering from injury, that combination takes real friction out of attending regular appointments — and regular attendance is what makes rehabilitation work.
Referrals, Medicare and funded care
Most people can simply call and 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 under WorkCover Queensland or a CTP claim — 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?
