About our Belgrave South service

Mobile Exercise Physiology in Belgrave South

The hills suburbs we visit have steep streets, sloping blocks and bushland and are an easy drive up from our base. Our accredited exercise physiologist visits clients in Belgrave South (3160), usually about 25 minutes from our Dandenong North base, so appointments are easy to fit in.

If you're coming home from the Angliss Hospital or Casey Hospital, we can carry on your rehabilitation at home. We see adults and older people with disability, chronic conditions and falls risk and build programs around what they want to get back to doing.

Example: A 70-year-old in Belgrave South with knee osteoarthritis has been told to stay active but finds walking painful. Our EP starts with water-based sessions at a local pool, then moves to land-based strength work.
