Physiotherapists and Personal Trainers are well-known, but how do they differ from an Exercise Physiologist (EP)?

AEPs (Accredited Exercise Physiologist) are highly trained allied health professionals specialising in the science of physical exercise and possessing in-depth knowledge of how exercise affects the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, and endocrine systems.

AEPs are qualified to prescribe and deliver effective and safe exercise routines for their clients with acute or chronic medical conditions, injuries, or disabilities. Their main goal is to enhance and optimise client health, function, recovery, and independence so they can live healthily and happily.

Our Exercise Physiologists will:

• Ensure you maintain good health while enhancing your functionality and improve your quality of life
• Facilitate your recovery and promote re-ablement
• Maximise your independence
• Educate and advise about your health and well-being and how physical activity and exercise can improve your health outcomes
• Coach and motivate you to increase your engagement and self-efficacy during your treatment
• Improve your physical activity by addressing your preferences, needs, barriers and goals

Person-Centred Approach

We aim to create a safe and comfortable environment to ensure your needs are met during your exercise sessions. Additionally, we liaise with your GP, physiotherapist, and other important figures (such as family members) to ensure you receive the best possible services.
