I am an Accredited Exercise Physiologist working in the local Dubbo area. I completed a Masters in Clinical Exercise Physiology-Exercise Rehabilitation in March 2014 and gained my accreditation with Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) soon after. I am registered to take referrals through Medicare, WorkCover and DVA which means no cost to the client. Private health cover also contributes to the cost if the client is not referred by their GP.
Exercise physiologists use exercise to help treat chronic conditions such as osteoporosis, arthritis, obesity, type 1 and 2 diabetes, CVD, respiratory conditions, cancer, musculoskeletal injuries and chronic musculoskeletal pain, among others. Each program is tailored to the client’s medical condition, their physical capabilities and the results of my fitness, strength, flexibility and neurological assessments.
I am also looking to expand ExPhys and Fitness further by developing a group based exercise program for clients with Chronic Disease and Pre and Postnatal Mums and Bubs classes.
I am hoping to provide the community of Dubbo with services that not only help manage their health conditions but improve their symptoms and where possible prevent chronic disease and/or pain from developing.
