We aim to empower you with the knowledge and skills to acheive the right combination of activity and nutrition for your lifestyle. Have a look through the services we provide and call us to discuss your specific needs.
Chronic Disease Management
Our Dietitian & Exercise Physiologist have both been working with people experiencing chronic heath conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, depression, cancer, arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and many other conditions since 1993.
Individual Services
With the assistance of the Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP) and/or Dietitian you will develop skills for making long-term behaviour change in order to self-manage and improve your health through exercise, nutrition and other lifestyle modifications. The anticipated outcome/aim will be a reduction in the risk and/or severity of the disease.
Patients referred by their GP and who have an Enhanced Primary Care Plan in place may receive up to 5 visits per calender year (click link to better understand eligibility for Medicare or Department of Veteran Affairs referral by your Doctor). Patients have the option to pay for these services using their private health insurance cover (N.B. Most but not all health insurance providers recognise Exercise Physiology and Dietetic services. Patients are encouraged to enquire about their level of cover with their health fund prior to booking).
Type 2 Diabetes Group Services
Patients who meet the Medicare criteria for the Type 2 Diabetes group program will be entitled to 8 one-hour group sessions each calendar year (N.B. These services are in addition to the 5 individual services for patients with a chronic medical condition and complex care needs). Patients must have Type 2 Diabetes, have a relevant care plan in place and be referred by their GP for assessment for group services to be eligible for health rebates. Non-Medicare full-fee paying patients are welcome to attend.
Prices
Patients who meet the criteria for these services will be eligible for rebates through Medicare, Department of Veteran Affairs or their private health fund. It is up to the patient to choose which claim method (Medicare or DVA or private health insurance). For those using Private Health Fund cover upfront payment is required - you will then be issued with a receipt to claim back for services.
