Exercise Physiology · Gold Coast

Accredited exercise physiologists on the Gold Coast.

Exercise physiology is the evidence-based application of exercise as treatment — for chronic conditions, post-injury rehab, weight management, healthy ageing and athletic performance. Our accredited exercise physiologists work alongside our physios, podiatrists and your GP team.

What exercise physiology actually is.

Accredited exercise physiology (AEP) is a four-year university-trained allied health profession. AEPs prescribe exercise the same way a doctor prescribes medication — specific dose, specific timing, specific monitoring — for the management of chronic conditions, injuries and health goals.

The conditions AEPs help with are wide-ranging: type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, chronic pain, post-cancer recovery, mental health, autoimmune conditions, post-surgical rehab, sports performance, and healthy ageing. The international evidence is strong — exercise prescribed by an AEP is medicine.

Our exercise physiologists work in our gym and clinical pilates studio alongside the broader allied health team. Most patients access EP services after a physio episode (musculoskeletal rehab progression), through Medicare GPCCMP bulk-billing, or via DVA, NDIS or WorkCover where applicable.

Service areas

Six areas our exercise physiologists work in.

Each is a dedicated service with its own pathway — click through for the specifics on funding, sessions and what to expect.

01
Structured exercise programming alongside your GP and dietitian. Resistance plus cardio plus habit work — the three elements that compound into sustainable change.
02
The bridge from physio rehab back to normal training and life. Where most recoveries fall short — we keep the loading going long enough to actually rebuild capacity.
03
Clinical S&C for people in their 40s, 50s and 60s — or anyone whose body needs more than a generic gym program. Strength is medicine for almost every chronic condition.
04
Graded exercise as evidence-based first-line treatment for chronic pain. Combined with pain education and pacing strategies.
05
Diabetes, heart disease, COPD, osteoporosis, post-cancer recovery, autoimmune. Exercise programming written to the international guidelines for your specific condition.
06
Periodised programming for the recreational-but-committed athlete — masters competitors, age-group endurance, sport-specific S&C.
