What is exercise physiology?
Clinical exercise designed around your health
Accredited Exercise Physiologists are university-qualified allied health professionals who use exercise as medicine. Unlike a general fitness program, clinical exercise is prescribed for people living with injury, disability, chronic disease or complex health needs.
We begin with an assessment of your movement, strength, balance, capacity and goals. Your clinician then builds a program that is safe, measurable and connected to the things you want to do more independently.
- Improve strength, balance and walking capacity
- Reduce pain and build confidence with movement
- Increase independence in everyday tasks
- Manage long-term health conditions safely
Supportive, evidence-based carePoppy helps make the clinic feel welcoming while progress stays focused on your goals.

Progress that carries into everyday life
These comments are from real CWS clients and families who have consented to their testimonials being shared.
“Combined treat everyone like family, the establishment is super, and the instructors are the best I have ever experienced. I have improved so much since being at Combined, I absolutely love attending, and hate to miss a gym session.”
“I was very fortunate to find this place after the removal of a brain tumour caused a stroke leading to partial paralysis. Combined were very instrumental in getting me back to walking and movement. I have been rehabilitated for four years and will continue this practice for years to come. This place helped give me back my life.”
“The team continues to plan workouts and sets goals to my recovery, challenging and encouraging me at every stage with professional guidance and support. They really are providing Wellness Solutions to make recovery achievable and enjoyable.”
“Our daughter has been receiving treatment at Combined Wellness Solutions for over four years, and we are beyond grateful. Thanks to the exceptional skills and dedication of the exercise physiologists, she has made remarkable progress in her strength, mobility and independence.”
“I have been coming to Combined Wellness Solutions for almost two years now, and my balance and general health has improved immensely. Keely and the team have been a great support and I highly recommend them to anyone who requires assistance with mobility, strength and mental wellbeing.”
“My daughter has steadily progressed and is more confident. Now the sessions are filled with giggles and laughter. Lovisa’s persistence and patience played a big role in my daughter’s progress and confidence. We are so glad we found a great therapist.”

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a referral to see an exercise physiologist?
Private clients can book directly, with no referral needed. For Medicare rebates you need a Chronic Disease Management plan from your GP. WorkCover, DVA and NIISQ clients need the relevant referral or approval. We can help you work out what applies to you.
Are you a registered NDIS provider?
Yes. Combined Wellness Solutions is a registered NDIS provider, so we can work with agency-managed, plan-managed and self-managed participants. Exercise physiology is usually funded under Improved Health and Wellbeing or Improved Daily Living.
Where are your clinics?
Our Gold Coast clinic is at Unit 4 / 39 Lawrence Drive, Nerang. Our Ipswich clinic is at 260 Brisbane Street, West Ipswich. We also offer home visits across most of the Gold Coast, Ipswich, Logan and the Brisbane southside, plus telehealth across Queensland.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Bring comfortable clothes and shoes you can move in, any referral or plan paperwork, and a list of current medications. Your first session focuses on assessment, goals and making sure the program feels right for you.
What is the difference between an exercise physiologist and a physiotherapist?
Physiotherapists often focus on diagnosing and treating injuries, including hands-on care. Accredited exercise physiologists use clinically prescribed exercise to build capacity, manage chronic conditions and support long-term rehabilitation. Many clients benefit from both professions working together.
