Exercise Physiology Ballarat
What Is Exercise Physiology?
This form of care focuses on transforming your health through precise assessment of joint integrity, neural function and strength capacity to then develop a plan of exercise rehabilitation tailored to your individual needs and goals. Exercise Physiologists are the highest trained professionals with exercise so can guide you safely as you develop strength and endurance factoring in any chronic disease, illness, or injury. We can share our extensive knowledge of the human body and exercise benefits to help you find pain relief, improve mobility and functionality, and manage and improve acute and chronic illnesses.

FEES AND APPOINTMENT INFORMATION
Accepting
GP Health Care Plans (CDMs)
Medicare will rebate your consultation up to an amount which increases every year. For an example for the 2026-2027 financial year the rebate from Medicare was $63.40. We will need paperwork of your CDM prior to your appointment for the rebate to be claimed which we can do for you onsite on the day of your appointment. Your GP will usually send this directly to us but sometimes you will need to bring this to us if they give the paperwork to you.
While we provide the claiming facilities for this as an added service to our clients, eligibility for any rebates though insurance or Medicare is your responsibility to manage to ensure you can access your entitlements.
NDIS
Self-managed and plan-managed participants.
Minors
Cancellation Policy
To avoid the consult fee, notify us at least 48 hours prior to your appointment to cancel or reschedule so we can arrange to care for another client during that time. If the required notice is not given and you can’t make your appointment but we are successfully able to fill that place, no fee will be charged.
