Short answer: Heyday Medical is a telehealth medical-cannabis clinic — now operating under the name Releaf — and it is one of the few services in Australia with in-person clinic locations in Victoria. If you're in Melbourne and wondering whether it's a shop you can order CBD oil from directly, the answer is no: it's a consultation-and-prescription clinic, not a storefront. For over-the-counter CBD oil you can simply buy and ship to Melbourne CBD, Richmond, St Kilda, Brunswick, that's what CBD Oil Melbourne is — an online CBD oil shop built for Melbourne and the rest of VIC.
This review is independent. CBD Oil Melbourne is a separate Australian shop selling its own range of over-the-counter CBD oil — it is not Heyday Medical, is not affiliated with it, and operates as a shop rather than a clinic or prescriber. Heyday Medical's own services are available on its official site, which redirects to its current Releaf brand.
Heyday Medical in Melbourne — clinic, not shop
For Melbourne and regional Victoria, Heyday Medical/Releaf has practical significance beyond the typical telehealth-only clinic: it offers some in-person consultation locations in VIC, in addition to its national telehealth service. That means a Melbourne patient can choose between attending a clinic physically or connecting through a video consultation — a genuine flexibility that not every service in the prescription space provides.
The clinic is 100% Australian-owned, family-inspired, and staffed by doctors, mental-health practitioners and nurses with experience in prescription plant medicines. The process starts with a free, no-obligation pre-screening call. From there, a paid consultation is booked, at which a doctor reviews your history and decides whether a prescription for medical cannabis is clinically appropriate. The key word throughout is prescription: no consultation outcome is guaranteed, and any product — which may include THC — is issued only under that prescription.
What it costs — Releaf fees in 2026
Under the current Releaf brand, the published fee structure is: initial consultation $200, first review $125, and ongoing follow-ups at $88 per appointment. Medicare rebates are available through some participating doctors, subject to availability. These fees cover the consultation itself — any prescribed medication is a separate and additional cost, depending on the individual treatment plan developed by the prescribing doctor.
It is a genuinely different cost model from an OTC shop. A Melbourne buyer comparing the two routes should note that the Releaf pathway involves recurring costs (consultations plus medication), while an over-the-counter purchase is simply the price of the product. For the prescription route, the TGA website explains the full regulatory framework.
What over-the-counter CBD oil means for Melbourne shoppers
The Therapeutic Goods Administration's 2021 decision to down-schedule low-dose cannabidiol created a route distinct from the prescription pathway: hemp-derived CBD oil sold online, described by composition (spectrum, milligrams, carrier oil, THC content), without a consultation required. That is the route CBD Oil Melbourne sits on.
CBD Oil Melbourne is an OTC CBD oil shop built for Melbourne — orders post across Melbourne CBD, Richmond, St Kilda, Brunswick and the rest of VIC in Australian dollars, with no consultation, no clinic appointment, and no script involved. The shop carries five oil families: a full-spectrum CBD oil with the whole-hemp profile and a legal trace of THC under 0.3%; a broad-spectrum CBD oil with THC removed to 0%; CBG oil for cannabigerol on its own; a THC-free CBN oil as a cannabinol isolate; and a pet CBD oil made for animals. Every bottle is 50ml in a coconut-derived MCT base, third-party lab-tested by batch with a Certificate of Analysis on request, from $89.95 AUD.

Practical comparison: clinic vs shop for a Melbourne buyer
A Melbourne resident searching for Heyday Medical is usually asking one of two questions: "can I get a medical assessment and prescription?" or "is this a place I can order CBD oil from directly?" The answer to the first is yes, through Releaf. The answer to the second is no — but that's what CBD Oil Melbourne is for.
The practical split:
- Heyday Medical/Releaf — in-person (VIC) or telehealth; doctor assesses you; prescription issued if appropriate; can include THC; ongoing consultation costs plus separate medication cost; designed for people who want medical oversight.
- CBD Oil Melbourne — online shop; buy directly; hemp-derived CBD oil by composition; full-spectrum, broad-spectrum, CBG, CBN and pet oils; ships to Melbourne CBD, Richmond, St Kilda, Brunswick; priced from $89.95; no appointment required.
Neither replaces the other. The how-to-use guide covers the practical steps for reading a CBD oil label once you've decided the OTC route is right for you.
