What is Exercise Physiology?
Exercise physiology is all about helping people achieve their best physical selves. Exercise physiologists and scientists from Heart Health and Fitness help people with heart conditions use the right exercises to improve their:
- Confidence,
- Breathing,
- Energy,
- Strength, and
- Mobility, while also
- Reducing pain and discomfort
We believe exercise should be enjoyable (as you should really do it for the rest of your life) and fun.
We focus on the positive outcomes and believe that once you start to notice and feel the benefits, you will want to continue.
We don’t provide a one-size-fits-all and enjoy a challenge when coming up with new exercises and programs for people.
“If exercise were a pill, it would be the most widely prescribed drug.”
One on one appointments
We take a holistic approach to your care.
That means that we don’t just go through your physical function, abilities and pain points. We also assess your diet, mental health and other lifestyle behaviours (e.g. smoking and drinking habits).
We then use this information (as well as your health and medical history) to come up with a personalised journey to achieve YOUR goals. Whatever they may be. And if you are unsure about what you want to achieve, we can help you with this as well.
We help you track your progress and understand what exercise types and intensities are safe for you.
There’s definitely no one-size-fits-all approach to your health and well-being journey. So, let us help you get on the right path to success.
“Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.”
