About our Oakleigh East service

Mobile Exercise Physiology in Oakleigh East

Monash sits right next to our base along the Monash Freeway, so visits are quick and easy to schedule. Our accredited exercise physiologist visits clients in Oakleigh East (3166), usually about 20 minutes from our Dandenong North base, so appointments are easy to fit in.

If you're coming home from Monash Medical Centre 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 44-year-old NDIS participant in Oakleigh East 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.
