Booking is online at https://wien-physio.at and takes under a minute. Payment is
cash or bank transfer. Prices include VAT-exempt medical treatment

08:00–12:00. Closed Saturday and Sunday.

## Insurance and reimbursement (Austria)

Harlan is a Wahltherapeut, a private therapist rather than one with a health-fund
contract. In practice that means:

- No referral is needed to be treated. Anyone can book directly.
- To claim money back, the patient needs an ärztliche Verordnung (a doctor's
  prescription for physiotherapy) and submits it with the invoice
  (Honorarnote) to their Krankenkasse.
- Statutory insurance then reimburses part of each session. As an example, the
  ÖGK refunds €45.60 for a 45-minute physiotherapy session.
- Private insurers often cover the full amount.
- Patients who book without a referral are sent a plain-English explanation of
  how to get one and how to claim.

## What he treats

Spine and back: back pain and disc problems, neck and shoulder pain (cervical
syndrome), scoliosis, posture and ergonomics.
Lower limb: ACL and post-operative rehabilitation, runner's knee
(patellofemoral pain), Achilles tendinopathy, unstable ankles, hip and
piriformis pain.
Upper limb: rotator cuff tears, shoulder impingement, tennis, golfer's and
mouse elbow.
Strength and prevention: core stability and conditioning, balance and falls
prevention, osteoporosis management, return to sport.

Formthotics individually fitted orthotic insoles are available as part of
treatment where foot or lower-limb biomechanics are involved.

## Cancellation

Cancel or move an appointment free of charge up to 24 hours before it starts,
using the buttons in the confirmation email. Inside 24 hours the reserved time
is charged in full; the session then counts as a consumed unit and can still be
claimed through insurance as normal.
