Exercise Rehabilitation

Exercise Physiology & Rehabilitation at Clinic 88 is conducted by fully qualified and ESSA accredited Exercise Physiologists.

What is exercise rehabilitation?

Our exercise physiologists use exercise as the modality to rehabilitation from injury, surgery, chronic illness or a poor physical condition. The aim is to improve your quality of life, making you fitter, stronger and healthier to enable you to be able to do the things in life you love. Our exercise physiologists have a specially designed exercise room at Clinic 88, or can meet you at your gym, home or workplace to design an exercise program specific to your needs.
