Sound familiar?

Between patients and notes, there's no time left to post.

I'm never sure what I'm allowed to say under the advertising rules.

We can't use testimonials, so what do we post instead?

Our page only gets updated when someone remembers.

Locals don't know we treat more than sore backs.

When a local needs a physio, chiro or podiatrist, they often look at a clinic's page before they book. If yours hasn't posted in months, they move on to the clinic that looks active. A social media manager costs A$1,500–A$5,000 a month, and still needs you to check every post against the rules.

Your clinic answers useful questions every day: what to expect at a first visit, how to set up a desk, what a podiatrist actually does. Those answers make good, careful posts. The hard part is turning them into posts every week while keeping within the rules.

Why it works

More enquiries, less effort, starting this week

The result

A clinic locals recognise

Weekly, useful posts show your team and how you work, so people know you before they call.

Why it works

Careful by default

Posts are kept within AHPRA advertising guidance and stay general. You approve every one.

How fast

Your month, planned today

Health fund reset dates, winter sport and your closure dates are already in your plan.

How easy

About 30 minutes a month

Tick posts between patients. Nothing goes out until you approve it.

How Vera’s Studio works for allied health clinics

  1. Set up your brain once

    Tell Vera's Studio who you help, what you offer, how you talk and what you'll never say. Paste your website and it fills in most of it for you.

  2. Get your 30-day plan

    A month of posts mapped to your calendar, each with a hook, a format and the reason it's there. Swap anything you don't like.

  3. Approve and it posts

    Finished carousels, image posts and short videos, ready to tick. Approved posts publish straight to your accounts. No downloading.

Built for how allied health clinics work

Planned around your clinic year

Your plan knows the dates that matter to your patients: many health funds reset extras limits on 1 January (some on 1 July or the policy anniversary), winter sport season, fun runs, back to school and your Christmas closure dates.

Kept within AHPRA advertising guidance

Posts are kept within AHPRA advertising guidance: no testimonials, no before-and-after photos, no promised outcomes and no words like "best" or "guaranteed".

General information, not advice

Posts explain things in general terms and suggest people book an assessment, so you're not treating strangers online.

A never-say list you control

Set the words and claims it must never use, and it keeps them out of every post. One person approves each post before it goes out.

Which social media is best for allied health clinics?

Facebook reaches the most local patients and their families, and it's where people ask for recommendations. Instagram suits short educational videos and introducing your team. LinkedIn helps with referral partners like GPs and employers. Start with one or two and post every week. Vera's Studio publishes to Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn from one plan.

Questions allied health clinics ask about social media

Which social media is best for allied health clinics?

Facebook reaches the most local patients and their families, and it's where people ask for recommendations. Instagram suits short educational videos and introducing your team. LinkedIn helps with referral partners like GPs and employers. Start with one or two and post every week. Vera's Studio publishes to Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn from one plan.

What should physiotherapists post on social media?

General education, what to expect at a first appointment, your team and qualifications, clinic news and how to book. Keep it accurate and general, and leave out testimonials and anything that promises a result. Vera's Studio plans that mix each month.

What are AHPRA's social media rules for advertising?

In short, advertising for a regulated health service must not be false or misleading, must not use testimonials about clinical care, must not create unreasonable expectations of benefit and must not encourage unnecessary use of health services. Read AHPRA's advertising guidelines for the full rules. This is general information, not legal advice.

Can massage therapists use the same posts?

Yes. Massage therapists aren't AHPRA-registered, but consumer law still applies, so Vera's Studio uses the same careful approach: general information, no promised outcomes and no misleading claims.

Can physios and chiros use testimonials on social media?

No. AHPRA's advertising guidelines say a social media page that promotes a regulated health service must not use testimonials about clinical care. Comments about things like customer service or communication style are treated differently. Massage therapists aren't AHPRA-registered, but consumer law still applies, so the same careful approach makes sense. This is general information, not legal advice.

What can allied health clinics post on social media?

General, accurate education, what to expect at a first visit, your team and qualifications, opening hours, how to book and how health fund rebates work at your clinic. Leave out testimonials, before-and-after photos and anything that promises a result.

How often should an allied health clinic post on social media?

Three to four posts a week on one or two platforms is enough for most small allied health clinics. Posting steadily every week matters more than posting a lot in a burst. The 30-day plan in Vera's Studio spaces your posts out for you, so the month is covered before it starts.

How much does social media management cost in Australia?

Freelance social media managers in Australia typically charge A$22–A$110 an hour, and monthly management retainers usually run A$1,500–A$5,000 a month. Vera's Studio starts at A$97 + GST, your first 3 images are free, and you approve every post yourself.

Can I use AI to write my business's social media posts?

Yes, as long as the AI knows your business and you check each post before it goes out. Vera's Studio starts from a brain you fill in once with your services, clients and tone of voice, so posts sound like you rather than a generic template. Nothing publishes until you approve it.

Do I need to be good with technology?

No. If you can fill in a form and tick a box, you can run Vera's Studio. Most people set up their brain in one sitting and have their first month planned the same day.
