Bayside Physiotherapy team have joined the Sports & Spinal family to continue to provide the Highest Quality Patient Care. We are located on the beautiful Fraser Coast in Urraween, conveniently located near  Kawungan, Scarness, Pialba, Dundowran, Torquay, Urangan, Eli Waters, Point Vernon, Wondunna and Nikenbah.

Accredited Exercise Physiologists are allied health professionals providing exercise and lifestyle therapies to prevent and manage chronic disease, injury, and disability.

An Exercise Physiologist (EP) is a 4 year, University-trained Allied Health professional who is an exercise prescription expert. They will work with you to design a specific exercise program tailored to your injuries, health status and goals.

Our Exercise Physiologists at Sports & Spinal can help your condition by working with you to formulate an appropriate treatment plan to assist in reaching your specific goals. Exercise Physiologists use movement and exercise in conjunction with specific education and motivational guidance to treat and manage your conditions.

Sports & Spinal’s accredited Exercise Physiologist can assist with Diabetes & Obesity, General Health & Wellbeing, Mental Health Issues, Musculoskeletal Injuries, Neurological Conditions, Strength & Conditioning, Women’s Health, Aging, Chronic Pain, Fatigue, Cardiovascular, Pulmonary, Paediatrics and Cancer.

Exercise facilitates changes within the body that increases its efficiency. This allows us to be able to manage conditions or diseases, that can cause our bodies to not function to the best ability. Exercise prescription is progressed systematically and aligned with broader allied health care, ensuring programs remain safe, measurable and adaptable as physical capacity improves.

You can expect our Exercise Physiologist to listen to your personal story and ask questions, so they can work with you to guide an appropriate treatment plan. Our Exercise Physiologist will complete a detailed, goal-focused, clinical, and functional assessment.

Treatment will vary and be specific to you but will likely involve modified movement and exercises to build your capacity and function through strength, fitness, balance, and more. Treatment will change and progress while working alongside your Exercise Physiologist. Our Exercise physiologists will provide education on health, conditions, injuries and what to do and what not to do may take place in different environments, including our onsite gym, your regular gym and pools, depending on your interests and goals. Our Exercise Physiologist believes in a multi-disciplinary approach and will work with other health professionals to help manage your condition.

This service is particularly valuable for patients requiring medically supervised exercise or longer-term rehabilitation support within the Hervey Bay region.

I came in feeling very sick with vertigo whilst on holidays in Hervey Bay. Whilst not a specialist in this area i was well cared for, and my physio went to a lot of trouble to ensure I was feelin ok (follow up msg) and contacted my regular physio about the treatment.
Thanks for your kindness!

Booked an appointment and saw the physiotherapist Jacob Walmsley.
Receptionist was lovely and warm, greeting you with a smile.
Jacob was very thorough with his initial consultation and did multiple tests to ascertain where the issue was arising from, keeping me informed every step of the way. He was professional and knowledgeable, would recommend anyone looking for a physio to see Jacob!

Their knowledge is top notch and their commitment to rehab and getting the most out of minimising your recovery time is great.
They do hands on therapy, exercise programs, Pilates reformer, weights and more.

I have very complex physical medical conditions and saw Alanah today. She was positive, supportive, listened extremely well and responded perfectly to the severe pain I was in. Her massage skills and interest in what worked best for me were second to none. Well worth the time and money and I can’t wait to work with her again. Thank you Alanah….I haven’t needed to take the strong pain relief this evening I have had to take usually 🙂

Big news… we’re now offering Puppy Physiotherapy!

As you can see, our first client is already deep into their recovery plan and taking their rehab very seriously. 🐶💤

Personalised programs, expert rest breaks and plenty of pats are all included.

And no, this is defffffinitely not an #AprilFools joke. 😉

Love, the team at Sports & Spinal!

🦴 Did you know? 1 in 2 women over 50 will experience an osteoporosis-related fracture in their lifetime, most often after menopause when bone density naturally declines.

The good news 💪 Impact-loading and progressive resistance training are proven to help maintain bone mass and reduce fracture risk.
