About our Boronia service

Mobile Exercise Physiology in Boronia

Knox borders our Dandenong North base, with family homes on hilly streets near the Dandenong Ranges. Our accredited exercise physiologist visits clients in Boronia (3155), 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 Wantirna Health, 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 36-year-old NDIS participant in Boronia with an acquired brain injury wants more energy through the week. Our EP combines supervised gym sessions with a short home routine and tracks fatigue alongside the OT.
