We are devoid of pretence. We welcome honest conversations that build relationships and open doors to finding solutions that work for you. We understand that being vulnerable may not be easy. It is important that you feel safe with us and we are committed to building that trust with you.

We understand that everyone is unique. We will watch and listen carefully to understand what you’re experiencing and what it means to you. We will be compassionate and caring.

We work with you to understand your experiences of your body and find strategies to help you live with greater physical freedom. Together we will explore ways of moving that work for you and enhance your capacity for living life your way.

What does an Accredited
Exercise Physiologist (AEP) do?

AEPs, or “EPs” for short, apply research evidence to help people find ways they can use movement and exercise as part of their strategy for managing their health conditions and symptoms.

We’re trained to work with a wide range of health concerns, including persistent pain, mental health, cancers, neurological and metabolic conditions. We take a holistic approach, listening to you to understand your experiences of your health in all areas of your life. With your priorities in mind, we help you identify your strengths and preferences for exercise and movement. We work with you to build movement into your life in ways that you enjoy, work for you, and help you realise your goals.

For more information about what EPs do and the scope of our practice, have a look at the Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) website.
