Not sure if exercise physiology
is the right step?

This call is for people dealing with an injury, a chronic condition, or a doctor’s recommendation to exercise - and who want a straight answer on whether an exercise physiologist is the right next step.

If you are experiencing chest pain, sudden severe headache, numbness down one side, loss of bladder or bowel control, or a rapid unexpected change in symptoms, please call 000 or go directly to an emergency department. This call is not for urgent medical situations.

A straight 15 minutes

Fifteen minutes on the phone. I take the call myself. No card, no obligation.

By the end you’ll know whether exercise physiology is right for what you’re dealing with, whether I’m a good fit, and what it would cost to get started.

This isn’t an assessment. I won’t diagnose anything or give you exercises on the call - that happens properly in a full initial consultation, in person at Aspley or online.

Some people I speak to aren’t right for what I do. If a physio, a GP, or someone else makes more sense for your situation, I’ll say so and point you their way. I’d rather refer you on than take you on when someone else is the better fit.

On timelines

Rehab and exercise physiology work in increments. How long it takes depends on your condition, your history, and where you’re starting from. There is no fixed timeline that applies to everyone. A good program gives you a clear direction and measurable progress, not a promise about when you’ll feel a certain way.
