About our Templestowe service

Mobile Exercise Physiology in Templestowe

EastLink makes Manningham an easy drive north from our Dandenong North base. Our accredited exercise physiologist visits clients in Templestowe (3106), usually around half an hour from our Dandenong North base, so appointments are easy to fit in.

If you're coming home from Box Hill Hospital or the Austin 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 66-year-old in Templestowe 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.
