Frequently Asked Questions
What does an exercise physiologist do?
An exercise physiologist designs and delivers exercise programs tailored to help manage or prevent chronic conditions, improve physical function and support recovery. They often work with people experiencing cardiovascular issues, diabetes, musculoskeletal injuries or mental health conditions, using evidence-based approaches to promote long-term health outcomes.
Do I need a referral to see an exercise physiologist?
You don’t need a referral to see an exercise physiologist privately. However, if you're accessing sessions through Medicare, DVA or Workers’ Compensation, a referral from a GP or relevant health professional is generally required to receive rebates or coverage under those programs.
What conditions can exercise physiology help with?
Exercise physiology can assist with a wide range of chronic and complex health conditions, including diabetes, arthritis, heart disease, obesity, osteoporosis, depression, cancer recovery and injury rehabilitation. Programs are customised to individual needs and aim to improve mobility, strength, endurance and overall quality of life.
