Accredited Exercise Physiologists (EPs) are highly qualified allied health professionals specialising in providing exercise and lifestyle therapies to prevent and manage chronic diseases, injuries, and disabilities.
An EP undergoes four years of university training to become an exercise prescription expert. They will collaborate with you to create a personalised exercise program tailored to your specific injuries, health status, and goals.
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.

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. Treatment sessions may take place in various environments, including our onsite gym, your regular gym, or pools, depending on your interests and goals.

We’re taking a moment to celebrate the brilliant care and dedication our team delivers every day, making a real difference for our patients.
#sportsandspinal #patientexperienceweek #healthcareexcellence #teamwork #wellbeing
Exercise physiology is a recognised and essential part of Australia’s health system, supported through Medicare, DVA, the NDIS and private health funds. Yet it is still subject to GST. This means people managing conditions like diabetes, heart disease, obesity and mental health challenges are paying extra for care that helps them live better, healthier lives.
We don’t think that’s right, which is why we’re supporting Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA) in their campaign to remove GST from exercise physiology services.
Our team are calling on our community to support @essa_au`s petition to reach 50,000 signatures.
