What is Exercise Physiology?

Exercise Physiology is a recognised Allied Health profession that uses structured, clinically prescribed exercise to treat injury, chronic pain, disability and chronic disease. 


An Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP), is university-qualified and registered with Exercise & Sport Science Australia (ESSA). 


That means any program prescribed is grounded in clinical evidence — not guesswork or generic fitness advice. 


Exercise Physiology is approved under Medicare, NDIS, TAC, WorkCover and DVA.

How does it differ from Physiotherapy?

Exercise Physiology focuses on restoring function through graded exercise — particularly for complex, chronic, or systemic conditions where exercise itself is the medicine. 


Due to being co-located with  Symmetry Physiotherapy in Hoppers Crossing, I can coordinate directly with the physio team if you’re seeing both of us. Many patients do — it’s often the most effective combination for complex cases.


Exercise Physiology is an approved Allied Health treatment. 


Exercise Physiologists manage how exercise impacts your cardiorespiratory, musculoskeletal, neurological, endocrine or metabolic system.


If exercise is prescribed efficiently the body will physiologically adapt given the parameters defined by chronic disease.
