Offering accredited exercise physiologist services

AEPs are recognised allied health professionals and are specialists in their field — displaying a diverse range of knowledge and skills in health, exercise and sport.

Accredited exercise physiologists (AEP)s specialise in clinical exercise interventions for people at high risk of developing, or with existing, chronic and complex medical conditions and injuries.

These interventions are provided through:

  • prescribed exercises
  • lifestyle modification - with a strong focus on achieving behavioural change
  • advice and support
  • health, physical activity and lifestyle education

Our AEPs are registered providers within the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) and provide both hands-on treatment and exercise prescribed rehabilitation to people with acute or chronic disabilities.

Valid general practitioner referrals are required for all third party claims.
