NDIS exercise physiology
Building your strength one step at a time
Sometimes, the biggest smiles come from personal victories that nobody else sees. Maybe it’s lifting a kettle without a strain or taking the stairs with ease. It’s the small wins in your strength journey that add up, and guess what? They’re worth sharing. With our NDIS exercise physiology, it’s all about your progress. Whether it’s reaching a bit farther when you stretch each morning, walking a bit faster, or breathing a little easier, it’s designed to make both you and those around you proud of every step forward.
Your condition changes - your fitness plan should too
When your health can be unpredictable, you need an exercise buddy who knows that not every day is the same. The right support provides peace of mind knowing that your exercise plan isn’t set in stone — it’s as flexible enough to adapt to your personal circumstances. This plan isn’t stuck in one way of doing things. It changes as you get stronger and can do more. With this approach, you get a plan that’s so effective that people around you can’t help but ask, “What’s your secret?”. And when they ask for advice, you’ll know your routine is not just effective; it’s inspiring.
Move with the right purpose
Knowing how each exercise affects your wellness is important – that’s what exercise physiology is all about. Your fitness program shouldn’t feel like a guessing game or a trial and error. By working with skilled exercise physiologists, you can ditch those ‘what if this doesn’t work?’ worries. We’ll design one that fits you perfectly, focusing on your comfort and improvement. So, no more second-guessing – you can confidently step towards a stronger, healthier you.

Are all physiologists clued up on how to work with NDIS plans?
You’ve probably heard stories where things didn’t go smoothly. But many exercise physiologists are well-versed in working with NDIS plans.

This way, you can feel at ease, knowing they can navigate the system and focus on what’s important – your health.
Is dealing with the NDIS going to be another headache?
Let’s keep it real; dealing with any funding body can sometimes be a bit of a drag. But it doesn’t have to give you sleepless nights. Exercise physiologists who work with NDIS participants often handle the admin side of things, so you don’t have to. Their job is to make the process smooth for you.

I don’t want to be just another number. Can an exercise physiologist really cater to my unique needs?
Absolutely, they can – and they should. The whole point of exercise physiology is to see you as the one-of-a-kind person you are. Your exercise physiologist should be taking the time to understand your individual challenges and goals. They’re trained to tailor a program that’s spot-on for you.

And if you’re still not satisfied, remember you have options. You can switch providers – your NDIS plan gives you the freedom to find someone who’s a better match for you.
How often will I see my exercise physiologist?
That depends on what you and your exercise physiologist decide together. Some people might see them once a week, others might need a few sessions to start with and then less often after that. It’s all about what works best for you and your goals.
What if I have a flare-up of my condition or an injury?
Your exercise physiologist can adjust your plan to suit your needs. They’re all about making sure you’re safe and comfortable. If your health changes, they’ll be ready to tweak your exercises or give you different ones that suit your situation better.
Can my exercise physiologist come to me?
Yes, mobile exercise physiology is a thing. If traveling to appointments is tough for you, many services can come to your home. It’s all about making it convenient for you.
What role can dietetics play in my NDIS exercise physiology plan?
