Physiotherapists
Physiotherapy practice management software for South Africa
Book, treat and get paid from one app. Mobile Theatre lets South African physios send exercise videos, track patient progress, dictate notes and bill medical aids, from your phone, iPad or computer.
Why Mobile Theatre works for busy physio practices
You spend the day treating patients and the evening catching up on notes, billing and WhatsApps about bookings. No-shows and late cancellations break up treatment plans, medical aids limit sessions, and home exercise sheets end up in a drawer.
Mobile Theatre is built around how physios work: multi-session treatment plans, home exercise programmes, physiotherapy ICD-10 codes and billing with PMB motivation letters, all in one POPIA-compliant app.
Physiotherapy software with exercise videos and progress tracking
Send exercise videos from the app
Choose exercise videos in Mobile Theatre and send them to patients after the session, so they know exactly what to do at home. Update their programme as treatment progresses. Patients receive videos by WhatsApp, SMS or email.
Track each patient’s progress
See how each patient is progressing on their exercise programme, in the same app as your notes and billing. Use it to guide follow-up sessions and adjust the plan. Either you or your patient can log progress.
Graphical displays you and your patient complete
Graphical physiotherapy displays give you a visual record of where treatment started and how it is going, saved to the patient’s record. The displays include body charts, pain diagrams and range-of-motion charts that you can click and draw on.
AI dictation for physios
Dictate your session notes and physiotherapy-specific AI dictation turns them into structured clinical records, with ICD-10 codes relevant to physiotherapy built in.
Patient history at a glance
Previous sessions, diagnoses and notes on one screen, whether it is session 8 of a post-op block or a returning chronic patient.
Run virtual consults in the app
Virtual consults are built into Mobile Theatre, so you can see patients who live far from your rooms or cannot travel after surgery without switching to a separate video tool.
Secure patient communication
Patients can reach you securely through the app, so questions about their exercise programme stay in one place instead of scattered across WhatsApp chats.
Templates and outcome measures
Customisable clinical templates and outcome measures help you document consistently and track each patient’s progress from the first session to discharge.
Referral and authorisation tracking
Mobile Theatre tracks referrals and medical aid authorisations, so sessions are not billed after an authorisation has expired.
Running your physio practice without drowning in admin
- Self-booking. Patients book themselves into your open slots. No receptionist needed.
- Automatic reminders. Go to patients before every appointment.
- Cancellation fees. Set your cancellation window; late cancellations trigger a fee automatically.
- Digital consent forms. Sent before the first appointment and saved in the app.
- Live inventory. Consumables such as strapping tape, braces and dressings.
- Smart calendar. Shows your availability at a glance.
Getting paid: physiotherapy billing that just works
- Billing built for physiotherapy. With ICD-10 codes relevant to physios built in. Bill straight from the completed session, so there is less retyping and fewer data entry errors.
- Live earnings dashboard. Earnings and outstanding accounts, for clear financial transparency across your billing.
- Pre-populated PMB motivation letters. For medical aid review, so you do not write each one from scratch.
- Co-payment invoices. Sent from the app by WhatsApp, SMS and email.
Practices on Mobile Theatre collect up to 30% more, with an average claim turnaround of 2.3 days across more than 1.2 million claims processed.
Secure and available everywhere
POPIA compliance is necessary for healthcare practices in South Africa, and Mobile Theatre is POPIA compliant. Patient data is encrypted and stored in the cloud. It is on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store and works on any computer, so you can send exercise videos straight after a session and check your accounts at home.

Frequently asked questions
What does Mobile Theatre cost for physiotherapists?
The Bureau costs 4.9% of collections with the software licence fee waived. Software only for allied health professionals is currently R900 per month (limited-time price, normally R1,500) plus 1.9% of billed claims. Both prices exclude VAT, there is no long-term contract, and you can start with a free trial.
Can I send exercise videos and track each patient’s progress?
Yes. Send exercise videos to patients from the app after any session, and track their progress on the programme over time. Progress sits in the same patient record as your notes and billing.
How does Mobile Theatre handle no-shows and late cancellations?
Patients get automatic reminders before every appointment. If a patient cancels outside your cancellation window, the fee is applied automatically, so your policy is enforced without chasing anyone.
Does it work for a physio moving between rooms and hospitals?
Yes. Your calendar, notes, exercise videos and billing are on your phone, iPad and computer, so you can treat, document and bill from wherever you are.
Can I keep my existing billing team?
Yes. Choose software only and your team handles claims while you use the treatment and practice tools. You can move to the Bureau later without changing platforms.
Do I need a receptionist?
No. Patients book themselves, reminders and consent forms go out automatically, and co-payment invoices are sent from the app.
Does Mobile Theatre support telehealth for physios?
Yes. Virtual consults are built into the app, so you can see patients who live far from your rooms or cannot travel after surgery without switching to a separate video tool.
