What is an Exercise Physiologist?

Exercise Physiologists are university qualified Allied Health Professionals who provide specialist treatment through exercise prescription. They have extensive knowledge of the human body and movement analysis for special populations and injury management.

An Exercise Physiologist is a qualified specialist in the management and treatment of chronic injuries and also deliver strategies for disease prevention. The main benefit of engaging an Exercise Physiologist is that they educate clients on the most effective methods to manage an injury long term. This is achieved through exercise prescription that is specifically designed to the individual.

Why Choose ProActive Rehabilitation & Health?

It is our belief that every program should be designed to suit the individual’s needs, as each person moves differently and each injury is unique. Flexibility, muscular imbalances, stability and strength are all addressed on a personal basis to ensure the client achieves their goals in a timely manner.

Highly Trained Staff

Our staff are trained and work under Mark Goswell, who has been treating clients since 2000.

His experience and knowledge, which is passed onto his staff, means you can be guaranteed the best outcome for your rehabilitation requirements.

All clients are educated on how to manage their injuries through exercise on a long term basis. We explain the purpose of the exercises and the benefits they will receive from regular training in an easy to understand method that the client can translate into everyday movements.
