About our Park Orchards service

Mobile Exercise Physiology in Park Orchards

EastLink makes Manningham an easy drive north from our Dandenong North base. Our accredited exercise physiologist visits clients in Park Orchards (3114), usually about 25 minutes from our Dandenong North base, so appointments are easy to fit in.

If you're coming home from Maroondah 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 27-year-old NDIS participant in Park Orchards with autism wants to join a local gym. Our EP visits the gym together, sets up a visual program and gradually fades support.
