Optimise FNQ Exercise Physiology

Exercise Physiology services are now available for the Innisfail and Tully area.

Exercise physiologists are university qualified health professionals who work with clients to identify areas of everyday life that need to be modified for better health outcomes. Once these areas are identified, an exercise physiologist utilises the latest scientific evidence to develop individualised exercise programs to help the client achieve their goals and improve the areas of every day life that are of concern.

Exercise programs are tailored to each individual's needs and fitness levels. Exercises are progressed or regressed depending on individual's capabilities and needs. The developed programs aim to promote behaviour change rather than a quick fix, which generally do not allow clients to meet their overall goals.

Exercise physiologists are able to apply their extensive knowledge to everyone from athletes looking to improve their performance, through to those who are looking to reduce the impacts of numerous health conditions.

Exercise physiologists are well versed in the treatment and management of:
- Diabetes
- Obesity
- Cardiac conditions such as blood pressure,cholesterol and heart failure
- Pulmonary conditions such as asthma and emphysema
- Musculoskeletal injuries
- Arthritis
- Osteoporosis and osteopaenia
- And many many more

We offer bulk billed sessions through medicare, department of veteran's affairs claims, private health, home visits for those unable to make the practice, hydrotherapy and injury screening/athlete performance.

If you feel that you could benefit from seeing an exercise physiologist or would like to know more about exercise physiology, please do not hesitate to get in contact.
