Booking an appointment

Whether you're pregnant, recently had a baby, or you're coming in with an everyday ache, injury or pain, you're in the right place.

Private or ACC — which appointment should I book?

Not sure whether to book Private or ACC? Here's a simple guide.

Choose ACC if your pain or injury was caused by an accident or injury.
For example:

  • You hurt your back lifting something heavy.

  • You injured your shoulder playing sport.

  • You fell and hurt your hip or tailbone.

  • You developed pain after a specific accident or injury.

  • You have an existing ACC claim for the problem you're seeking treatment for.

Choose Private if your symptoms aren't related to an accident or injury.
For example:

  • Pregnancy-related aches and pains.

  • Postpartum aches and pains after having your baby.

  • Back or neck pain that has gradually developed.

  • Headaches or migraines.

  • Aches and stiffness from work, parenting or everyday life.

  • General muscle and joint pain.
