Our customers range from active sports people to those with chronic health and medical issues who can benefit from physical activity and individualised treatment.
We are happy to have been selected as providers for this great over-65s group exercise initiative that is partly subsidised by grant funding making it very affordable! Please visit the link for more information or contact us on 9841 7363 to answer your queries.
The process is: (1) a brief initial assessment for some baseline physical capacity measurements; (2) a free trial class; (3) 12 x 1-hr classes over no more than 16 weeks; (4) reassessment. Cost: $5.50 for the initial assessment, $8 per class (in blocks of 6 or 12).

ECAL UPDATE + TELEHEALTH-STYLE CONSULTS • Kate hosted our clinical meeting today, sharing the insights we can gain from using the ECAL Metabolism testing machine. We have a program especially for people that seem to have trouble losing weight, despite trying all their options
You may have heard on the grapevine that Kate is relocating to Esperance - but we’re not giving her up that easily, Kate will be doing Telehealth-Style Consultations for anyone needing nutritional advice, so business is as usual, despite her being 500kms away!!
In recent times, research has changed the way we think about performing a structured warm up before exercise. The aim of a warm up is to prepare yourself or the team for the task they are about to perform. With a dynamic warm up, it takes the body and muscles through a range of movements common in a number of sports.
Here are a few alternative exercises we can use during a dynamic warm up to activate muscle of the legs and low back prior to running based activities. These not only "warm up" the muscles, they also stimulate the nervous system prompting greater muscle activation.
If you would like to prepare yourself for activity with the latest evidence based training, come and speak with us today!
At South Coast Sports Medicine we love promoting a healthy lifestyle, through both dietary advice or exercise.
We are lucky enough to have our own in-house gym facilities, but our Physiotherapists and Accredited Exercise Physiologists are able to design exercise programs specifically for your preferences - if you love the outdoors, we can design a park workout like this one!
