    Frequently Asked Questions

    Does NDIS cover exercise physiology?

    Yes, NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) does cover exercise physiology services. It recognises the importance of exercise physiology in promoting the health, mobility, and independence of individuals with disabilities.

    This falls under the ‘Improved Daily Living’ NDIS category, which is part of the Capacity Building support budget in your NDIS plan. In some cases, we can charge through Core support temporarily, but we are actively working to make this a permanent solution.

    Exercise physiology is crucial for several NDIS goals, including improving mobility, enhancing physical fitness, managing chronic pain or conditions, developing strength and coordination, increasing independence in daily activities, and promoting overall well-being.

    An exercise physiologist specialises in designing and implementing exercise programs tailored to the unique needs of individuals with disabilities. They assess functional abilities, develop personalised exercise plans, provide education on proper techniques, monitor progress, and support participants in achieving their health and fitness goals.

    The role of an exercise physiologist in disability is to improve the overall health, function, and quality of life of individuals with disabilities. They work closely with participants to address specific needs, manage symptoms, increase mobility, enhance strength and endurance, and promote independence through personalised exercise programs.

    If you have concerns about your ability to engage in exercises due to health conditions or limitations, our experienced exercise physiologists will work closely with you to develop a safe and suitable exercise plan. They will consider your specific health needs, provide modifications or adaptations as necessary, and support you throughout your fitness journey.

    The number of exercise physiology sessions you can receive through NDIS is determined on an individual basis. It depends on your specific NDIS plan and goals, as well as the funding allocated for exercise physiology services. Our team will work with you to optimise the utilisation of available sessions to meet your needs.

    Yes, exercise physiology can be beneficial for pain management. Our exercise physiologists are trained to develop exercise programs that can help alleviate pain, improve flexibility, and enhance overall function. They will work with you to address your specific pain-related concerns and design a plan tailored to your needs.
