CLINICAL EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY

CLINICAL EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY

We all know that exercise is good for us. Clinical Exercise Physiology ensures that you are safe performing your exercise too, especially if you have a health condition.

We prescribe exercise like your doctor might prescribe you medication. And just like medication exercise can be dangerous or have side effects if it is not prescribed properly. We use a strong evidence base to prescribe you an individualised, and in some cases monitored, exercise programme to help you to achieve your health goals.

Assessments

Cardiac or Diabetes Assessment

Our cardiac or diabetes assessment is a comprehensive look at your health, taking into consideration your cardiac health and or your diabetes.
