Exercise Physiology for Neurological Conditions
Living with a neurological condition changes things. Your brain, spinal cord, or nervous system affects how you move, think, and manage daily tasks.
Our accredited Exercise Physiology team specialises in evidence-based exercise programs for people with neurological conditions across Melbourne. We help you maintain function, slow disease progression, and work towards your goals.
The MV Fit Gym and Clinic is located in the North-West of Melbourne and appointments are available from 6:00am each day.
How Exercise Helps Neurological Conditions
Research has shown that exercise can be used as a tool to help slow the progression of neurological conditions, helping clients remain active for as long as possible. Beginning exercise today can kick start your journey to keeping independence by following these three training principles in a safe environment with our exercise physiologist team:
- Weight-bearing activities - exercise like walking practice and marching to improve gait and safety in every day situations.
- Progressive Resistance Training (PRT) - lifting progressively heavier loads (free weights, machines, bands) increases BMD and strengthens muscles that protect joints.
- Functional Movement Disorder Exercises and Skill Training - Practicing everyday movements with EP feedback to improve your ability to complete activities of daily life.
Our university-qualified Exercise Physiologists will assess your medical history, current health status and movement before prescribing a suitable exercise program.
