Occupational Rehabilitation Services

At Healthsmart Exercise Physiology, we specialise in tailored occupational rehabilitation programs that focus on what an individual can do, not just what they can’t. Our approach helps workers build on their functional abilities, supporting a smoother and more sustainable return to work.

Personalised Functional Physical Conditioning

Conducted in a fitness centre

Delivered via hydrotherapy/pool-based sessions
We have access to a wide network of health and fitness centres and hydrotherapy pools from Ormeau to Murwillumbah, helping reduce barriers to participation and improving outcomes.
Education and Communication
Each client receives personalised education on their condition, self-management strategies, and recovery pathways. To support this, we provide a comprehensive education resource pack, which includes information such as soft tissue management, as part of every program.
We also understand the importance of clear communication. That’s why we coordinate closely with treating practitioners—physiotherapists, occupational therapists, GPs, and case managers—providing timely updates and detailed progress reports that align with your scheduling needs.
