Exercise Physiology

An Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP) is a university qualified allied health professional that specialises in the prevention and maintenance of chronic conditions. An EP will deliver a holistic approach to your treatment, using relevant and supported literature to provide the best quality care when it comes to the prevention, maintenance or rehabilitation of your particular condition.

An Ep will incorporate exercise into daily living to ensure exercise is both sustainable and enjoyable while using motivational techniques to provide education and break down those barriers on the road to better health.

Our Exercise Physiologists provide a number of group based exercise programs, and are able to prescribe a individual exercise program for clients.
