Welcome to Arthritis, Pain Support & ME/CFS ACT

A quick message for our current members and service users

Our Bruce Office suffered a catastrophic flood recently. We are now utilising gym space at the University of Canberra Health Hub (building 28). We will be on the 4th floor for all your classes. If you enter the Health Hub walk past Capital Chemist and you will find the lifts to the left. Go to the 4th floor and follow the signage – it’s very easy to find.

Click this link for a map to the Health Hub from our Haydon Dve location or scroll down further for the map.

For new users to our service or people that are new to this website – welcome!

Arthritis, Pain Support and ME/CFS ACT are here to support you with any sort of chronic pain condition including arthritis, neuropathic pain, the effects of osteoporosis, and any fatiguing condition including Myalgic Encephalomyelitis and Long COVID, or anything else that you want to bring to us.  There is no condition that is too little or too big for us to help you with.

  • Physiotherapy
  • Exercise Physiology

  • Hydrotherapy
  • Small Group land-based exercise classes

Arthritis, Pain Support and ME/CFS ACT offers individual appointments with all our allied health practitioners, and we welcome people who utilise the NDIS, DVA and My Aged Care. Please note all our allied health services are fee for service. You can contact us directly for pricing schedules for the services you require. Many of our services are offered at a lower price for financial members, and membership prices are available on our membership form. For single 1:1 allied health services you can choose to pay the higher rate and not become a financial member, however to participate in any of our small classes, free online classes and hydrotherapy you are required to be a financial member.
