Where Health Meets Movement
At Exercise for Rehabilitation & Health, we believe in the power of movement to transform lives. Since opening our doors in Essendon North, we've helped thousands of Victorians improve their quality of life through expert exercise prescription and personalised care.
We help people move better and live healthier lives. It's that simple.
Our Story: Transformative Care
Founded in Essendon North with a vision to transform healthcare through movement, we've grown to become Victoria's leading exercise physiology practice.
What makes us different isn't just our expertise (though our team includes some of Australia's most qualified practitioners). It's our belief that healthcare should be personalised, practical and focused on long-term outcomes.
Throughout our growth, we've maintained our core values: evidence-based practice, genuine care, and a focus on what works in real life, not just in theory. We understand that health journeys aren't linear, which is why we create supportive environments where you can learn, adapt and succeed with our guidance.
Our Philosophy: Active Movement for Life
We believe movement is medicine. Our approach goes beyond treating symptoms - we help you build sustainable habits that improve blood pressure, reduce fatigue, manage weight, and increase your functional capacity for everyday living.
Unlike general practices, we specialise in preventative health and lifestyle management. We're the experts you turn to when you want to take control of your health journey, not just manage a condition.
