At Apricus Health, we pride ourselves on delivering innovative and exceptional care, empowering our clients to live healthier lives. We are looking for a Physiotherapist with musculoskeletal experience to join our Hand Therapy team, where you’ll work alongside leading experts in upper quadrant and hand therapy.

As a new team member, you’ll receive direct mentorship from AHTA-accredited hand therapists and have opportunities to develop your skills in upper limb therapy.

As a Great Place to Work Certified employer, we foster an environment where you can thrive both professionally and personally.

  • Experience with sports injuries, closed trauma, or degenerative issues.
  • 3-5 years of musculoskeletal physiotherapy experience in a private practice setting is highly desirable.

  • Full AHPRA registration, a current First Aid/CPR certificate, and NDIS Workers Screening (or willingness to obtain).

Values Doing it Better: We approach each day with innovation and passion to excel in client care and continuously improve our service.

Proud of What We Do: We are proud of who we are, what we do, how we do it and what we achieve together. Formerly operating as Helping Hands and Access Therapy Services, we have come together as Apricus Health to create a more robust and holistic allied health service to our clients and region. We are proudly local, having provided therapy services to Townsville and North Queensland for a combined 25 years. ‘The merger of our two businesses is a natural evolution that’s been happening behind the scenes for 10 years. We are the same dedicated team and are now better able to service the whole you.’ – Joanna Murray. ‘We were missing opportunities to serve the whole client. I knew that if we could do for our clients what we were doing in hand therapy, in all areas of their health, and their families health, it could be truly amazing.’ said Cassandra Chiesa.
