Exercise Physiology.
Suffering From a Chronic Disease, Recovering from a Musculoskeletal Injury, Concerned About Your Weight, Or Seeking Help With Falls Prevention?
What Is Exercise Physiology?
Exercise Physiology is a type of physical therapy that uses exercise as a therapeutic tool for the prevention, management, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries and various medical conditions.
Exercise physiologists use their knowledge of exercise physiology to design and implement exercise programs tailored to the individual needs of their patients.
At Newcastle Integrated Physiotherapy, we’re committed to helping our patients achieve optimal health and function through Exercise Physiology. We provide evidence-based treatments after thoroughly assessing your physical function – strength, balance, flexibility, endurance – and taking into account any injuries, medical conditions, and other factors affecting your ability to perform prescribed exercises safely and effectively.
Whether you need assistance to manage a chronic condition, recover from an injury, or improve your overall physical function and fitness, we’re here to help!
Our exercise physiologists will design a tailored exercise program for you, closely monitor your progress, adjust the exercise program if needed, and offer advice and assistance on how to exercise safely and effectively.
