What’s the difference between Physiotherapy and Exercise Physiology?

Physiotherapists and Exercise Physiologists are both University trained Allied Health Professionals. They both receive similar refunds under Medicare, DVA, Workers Compensation, MAIB and NDIS. Physiotherapists use evidence-based care to assess, diagnose, treat and prevent a wide range of health conditions and movement disorders. Physiotherapy helps repair damage, reduce stiffness and pain, increase mobility and improve quality of life. Exercise Physiologists primary focus is to use exercise-based intervention to prevent, manage and treat complex medical conditions. These interventions include health and physical activity education, advice and support and lifestyle modification with a strong focus on achieving behavioural change. They work across a very wide range of pathologies and only use evidence based research as a guide. If you are still unsure who you are best to see, please do not hesitate to give us a call.

Do I need any equipment?

No. All we ask is that you provide a clean clear space for us (approx. the size of a double bed) to assess you and provide treatment. We may recommend that you purchase small equipment such as therabands or light weights to maximise your results. However, in most cases we will show you exercises that can be done around your home with little to no equipment. If you do have your own equipment, feel free to ask us to include it in your program.

We request that payment is made at the time of treatment. We simply accept CASH and CARD. For more information on how we accept payment for certain services please see the FEES page for more information
