Exercise Physiology

What is an Accredited exercise physiologist (AEP)?

An AEP is a university qualified exercise professional. 

We use exercise in the management and prevention of chronic disease and injury, along with pre-habilitation and rehabilitation following acute injury or surgery.

AEP's are very strictly accredited and work with Medicare, the Department of Veterans Affairs and WorkCover to provide allied health services to those in need.

As well as working with chronic illness they also provide services for anyone aiming to improve their general health and wellbeing.
