Chronic and Complex medical conditions

Evidence now clearly shows us that a lack of physical activity is one of the largest modifiable risk factors for a variety of preventable diseases/conditions, including: Type II diabetes; Hypertension; Cardiovascular Disease; Obesity; Osteoporosis; Arthritis Some types of cancer; Chronic back pain, and many more.

Medicare rebates may be available for individuals with chronic medical conditions. However, your eligibility for Exercise Physiology services under Medicare is at the discretion of your GP and a referral is required. All medicare and DVA sessions are bulk billed so there is no out of pocket expense. In addition many Private Health Insurers also offer rebates on Exercise Physiology services.

What is Exercise Physiology?

Exercise Physiology is still a relatively new profession and as such it is not widely understood. Exercise Physiologists are allied health professionals who have completed a four year degree in Human Movement Studies or Exercise Science. We are specialists in developing and delivering exercise interventions for the management and prevention of chronic disease and injuries. These interventions use evidence based methods to encourage and support lifestyle and behaviour modification that is sustainable and not simply a quick fix.

Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) is the Peak Body representing Exercise Physiologists. All Accredited Exercise Physiologists must meet stringent accreditation and re-accreditation standards set by ESSA. Therefore you can be assured that when you use the services offered by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist you are getting access to a quality service.
