WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGIST &
A PHYSIOTHERAPIST ?​
Accredited Exercise Physiologists (AEPs) and Physiotherapists are both allied health professionals. The difference is an Exercise Physiologist's primary focus is to use exercise to prevent, manage and treat complex medical conditions and injuries.
Whereas Physiotherapists are trained in the diagnosis of musculoskeletal injuries, can provide manipulative therapy, massage and dry needling.
Exercise Physiologists will assess and provide suitable exercise programs to assist individuals to improve their long term health with holistic and safe approach.
