During your rehabilitation they can also help you cross train to maintain strength and fitness in all areas of your body while you are injured.
Fitness Training
When working out, it is important to pay close attention to key or weak areas and be progressed to achieve your fitness goals. Our exercise physiologists are able to safely prescribe fitness sessions and closely supervise technique to ensure clients are strengthening their whole bodies.
By using our intimate knowledge of your health goals, injury or health condition, our fitness training sessions can be designed to protect and strengthen injured areas, increase weight loss, improve strength gains, increase flexibility, improve core stability, attain postural improvement and achieve health benefits. Our fitness training is open to all clients not just those with injury concerns.
Technique and appropriate exercise progressions are ensured along with variety and training specific to your goals.
Chronic Disease Exercise Management
Research consistently demonstrates exercise is crucial in the successful management of chronic disease including cancer, diabetes, cardiac, neurological and metabolic diseases. Our exercise physiologists are university trained specialists in the prescription and supervision of exercise plans for patients with chronic disease.
We accept Enhanced Primary Care Plans with no gap to patients
Athletic Development
Our Exercise Physiologists run a sport specific athletic development program. This is an opportunity for young athletes to learn how to safely build an athletic, injury free body and prepare physically for competition. The program involves working with athletes on a regular basis to set-up complete sport specific physical training programs. The program begins with a musculoskeletal screening to identify past injuries, areas of weakness and to assess posture, flexibility and core stability.
