Our exercise physiologists work alongside your coach, your allied health team, and the full PerforMotion community. Whether you are recovering from injury, managing a long-term condition, or a strength athlete who needs support. Your program is built around you.
At most clinics, exercise physiology is a standalone appointment. You come in, you do your exercises, you go home. The person writing your program has no idea what you are doing outside those walls.
At PerforMotion HQ, your exercise physiologist is part of a wider team. They know what is happening with your program. They communicate with the coaching staff. They refer into group classes when that is the right next step.
Your training connects to a membership, a community, and a plan.
We use VALD performance testing to give you objective measurements of your strength at key points in your program.
That means we can track your progress precisely, identify asymmetries before they become problems, and make decisions about your program based on evidence.
VALD testing is included across our exercise physiology memberships and used to benchmark your progress at the start of your program and at regular review points throughout.

Our exercise physiologists work with a wide range of people. Here is where you might see yourself.
You have tried to push through it, rest it, or ignore it. None of that has worked. Our EPs will assess what is actually going on, build a program around it, and give you a clear path back to the things you want to do.
You train seriously and need a practitioner who understands. Our EPs work with powerlifters, weightlifters, and strength athletes at every level. We understand training load, competition timelines, and what it means to keep someone strong.
We are registered with Medicare, DVA, NDIS, and WorkCover. If you have a care plan, a referral, or an existing funding arrangement, we will work within it.
If you have been referred by a GP, a specialist, or a case manager, or if you are accessing support through a government scheme, we are set up to work directly within your plan.

Physiotherapists typically focus on diagnosis and early-stage rehabilitation, including hands-on treatment and initial exercise prescription. Exercise physiologists specialise in longer-term exercise-based management of injury, chronic conditions, and performance. The two professions work well together and at PerforMotion HQ, both are available under one roof.
No. You can book directly without a referral. If you are accessing Medicare rebates through a Chronic Disease Management plan, you will need a GP referral before your first appointment. For DVA, NDIS, and WorkCover, your funding plan will specify what is required. Our admin team can help you work through this.
Your first appointment is a 30-minute assessment. Your EP will talk through your history, understand your goals, assess your movement and any relevant symptoms, and give you a clear picture of what they recommend. From there, they will suggest the most appropriate membership and put together your initial program.
In most cases, yes. Keeping you active is one of our priorities. Our EPs are experienced at building programs that work around your training so you lose as little momentum as possible while your body recovers. If you are a competitive athlete, we understand what that means for your timeline and your goals.
That depends on what you are managing and where you want to get to. Some people need a focused block of four to six weeks. Others benefit from ongoing support over several months. Your EP will be transparent about what they recommend and why, and your membership can flex as your needs change.
A 15-minute call is where everything starts. The EP will listen, assess, and give you a clear plan before you commit to anything else.
