About our Box Hill service

Mobile Exercise Physiology in Box Hill

EastLink and the Eastern Freeway make Whitehorse a straightforward drive from our Dandenong North base. Our accredited exercise physiologist visits clients in Box Hill (3128), usually about 25 minutes from our Dandenong North base, so appointments are easy to fit in.

If you're coming home from Box Hill Hospital or the Peter James Centre, 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 38-year-old NDIS participant in Box Hill with cerebral palsy wants to walk to the local shops. Our EP runs a mix of gait training, strength work and community walks, building distance each fortnight.
