Why Exercise Physiology?
Exercise Physiology is not general fitness training.
It is clinical exercise prescription, designed for people with health conditions, injuries, or age-related changes.
An Accredited Exercise Physiologist:
- Assesses your strength, balance, mobility, and functional capacity
- Considers your medical history, medications, and risk factors
- Designs safe, individualised exercise programs based on evidence
- Progresses your exercise as your capacity improves
This approach is especially important if you are managing:
- Chronic health conditions
- Falls risk or balance concerns
- Pain, stiffness, or reduced mobility
- Recovery after illness, surgery, or injury
- Reduced confidence with movement
