Suffering from severe back pain can really have an impact on your quality of life! To support our members in managing their condition, improve symptoms and long-term health and even prevent surgical intervention, we’ve partnered up with Kieser to bring you our Spinal Care Plan.
Our Spinal Care Plan provides a high-quality, multi-disciplinary, out-of-hospital care pathway for members with spinal conditions and who may be at risk of needing a surgery for their condition in the near future.
The programs are available to members in Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales and the ACT and South Australia and focus on patient-centered, doctor-prescribed and evidence-based support to improve your symptoms, restore function and mobility, reduce pain and enhance your quality of life.
We’ve partnered up with the team at Kieser to offer you a program that truly supports you and what you need right now…
- Kieser clinics are available in Victoria, Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia and ACT.
Kieser was one of the first companies to recognise the value of strength training, combining health science, exercise science and friendly guidance to achieve high quality health outcomes for the long term.
Originating from Switzerland in 1966, Kieser have been providing professional services to patients for many years, and we’re really excited to be able to offer this program to Phoenix Health members.

Our Spinal Care Plan is available at no extra cost to Phoenix Health members who have Hospital Cover, have served their 2-month waiting period and who have a referral to the program by their medical practitioner stating their condition, the severity of their back pain and that they’re considered at risk of needing future spinal surgery.
