At Sports & Spinal, our Exercise Physiologists are dedicated to helping you manage your condition by formulating a suitable treatment plan that aligns with your specific goals. They utilise movement and exercise, along with targeted education and motivational guidance, to effectively treat and manage various health conditions.
Our accredited Exercise Physiologists have expertise in addressing a wide range of concerns, including Diabetes & Obesity, General Health & Wellbeing, Mental Health Issues, Musculoskeletal Injuries, Neurological Conditions, Strength & Conditioning, Women’s Health, Aging, Chronic Pain, Fatigue, Cardiovascular Health, Pulmonary Health, Paediatrics, and Cancer.
Exercise plays a vital role in enhancing the body’s efficiency, which enables us to better manage conditions or diseases that may impact our overall functioning.
When you visit our Exercise Physiologist, you can expect them to attentively listen to your personal story and ask relevant questions to gain a comprehensive understanding of your needs. They will conduct a detailed, goal-focused, clinical, and functional assessment to guide the development of an appropriate treatment plan.
The specific treatment you receive will be customised to your unique circumstances and may involve modified movements and exercises aimed at improving your strength, fitness, balance, and other functional abilities. As you progress, your treatment plan will be adjusted accordingly, ensuring continued progress. Our Exercise Physiologists are equipped to provide education on health, conditions, injuries, and offer guidance on what activities are beneficial and what to avoid.

New Grad Week is officially wrapped, and if you’re wondering what it’s like to start your career with us, this is the kind of support you can expect! 🎓

A purposefully designed four-day retreat on the Sunshine Coast (yes, accommodation provided!), packed with hands-on education, expert speakers, and real clinical experience across Sports & Spinal, Team Rehab Solutions and Podiatry. 

From neuro and pain management to gym-based practical sessions, shadowing opportunities, and biomechanical assessments at our new Maroochydore clinic, our grads got a truly immersive experience. A highlight? A masterclass with leading hip expert Dr Alison Grimaldi, giving our team clinical depth rarely accessible so early in a career.

Real learning, real mentorship, real connections… and a team that genuinely cheers you on. 💙
