The patient intervention model at ExHealth Rehabilitation Services is our differentiating point. 

Patients are EMPOWERED and INSPIRED. This is undertaken by working closely with patients, assisting them through each stage of change. 

They understand their conditions and understand time frames for clinical changes to occur. 

From service fees and consultation times to best practice evidence and working professionally with a mentor, ExHealth has created its care model around you the PATIENT. 

ExHealth believes that it is important to have a BALANCED conversation about exercise, movement and exercise therapy as it applies to condition management. It treats each patient as an individual and programs are "hands on" as such therapy models are designed to offer patients REAL functional outcomes and ACHIEVE key health measures.

Programs are achievable, needs based and are purpose designed. Clinical assessment allows this to be done with precision and is a big part of ExHealth's philosophy. We use a range of clinical equipment with prompt reporting back to referring GP or specialists.

Patients develop SMART goals (specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and TIME BASED). Our role in helping you improve your health is to educate you on the most effective self-management strategy. All programs can be conducted onsite, at home or within your local gym. Equipment is not a prerequisite.

All patients are clinically assessed from balance and strength to aerobic capacity. This allows the exercise prescription to be within your capabilities and allows a safe graded approach to be taken. 

Overloading the body (appropriately) is important as it allows our bodies to adapt to exercise but we don't need to go beyond what you are capable of.  

The assessment's set our baselines and allows us to drive physiological change.
