Supporting those who have supported us

At motus We help those who serve or have served in defence of our nation, and their families. 

The Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) commemorates the service and sacrifice of our veterans. DVA cards issued reduce the cost of health care including both Physiotherapy and Exercise physiology. 

DVA – Motus Health and Performance caters for individuals on the Northern Beaches from Dee Why, Cromer, Collaroy, Brookvale and surrounds.
