24.01.2022 HAPPY SUNDAY! I recently completed a course about OSTEOPOROSIS. Did you know that 4.74 million Australians over 50 years of age have osteoporosis or poor bone health (osteopenia). Exercise plays such an important role in muscle function, minimising the risk of having a fall. Some of the key risk factors of having a fall is:... 1. Muscle weakness 2. History of falls 3. Depression 4. >80years of age Regardless of what your bone mineral density (BMD) is, poor physical function increases the risk of a fracture and it is so important to try to minimise this. Completing a long term, individualised exercise program will aid in increasing or maintaining your BMD, bone structure and strength at the localised areas of weakness across multiple sites. Exercise physiology can be claimed through your private health, medicare and DVA. Please give me a message or call if you wish to book or require more information. Maddy xx

My top priority is to keep my clients and family safe so I please ask if you are feeling unwell or have had contact with any one overseas in the last 14days to reschedule your appointment. I have attached a photo helping you identify symptoms. ... ‘Most Australians are currently nervous about the potential impact of COVID-19, and we wanted to take the opportunity to remind everyone that we should still consider physical activity for two key reasons. Firstly, research does show that exercise can support our immune system and secondly, exercise is proven to support our mental health’ explains Anita Hobson-Powell, Chief Executive officer of ESSA. If you are feeling nervous or unsure about attending your appointment please contact me and we can discuss another option such as having your consultation over the phone/facetime. Just keep in mind being in self-isolation does not mean you have to stop exercising - I can design a home based exercise program requiring none to little equipment to keep you fit and healthy in this uncertain time.

15.01.2022 THE FACE BEHIND BURDEKIN EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY & MY BACKGROUND I studied a bachelor of exercise physiology at James Cook University Townsville and graduated in 2016. Throughout my uni degree I had the opportunity to work alongside patients with a range of different conditions including, but were not limited to musculoskeletal, cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, mental health illness and cognitive impairments. After graduation I moved down to Mackay where I worked in a private ...clinic. I developed a passion for assisting individuals with chronic disease, illness and injury and helping them live life to their full potential. I love the feeling of fulfilment when someone achieves their goals, which is why I do my job with passion and enthusiasm. Helping the elderly to young children the variations of my job, keeps me wanting more on a daily basis. I relocated back to Ayr at the end of 2018 and became a mother to a gorgeous little boy. Midway through 2019 I thought it would be a great idea to start my own little business so I could continue to enjoy my career and help others out. So Burdekin Exercise Physiology was created. If you need help to start moving more but aren't sure where to start, please don't hesitate to give me a call or message. It is so important to adapt to an active lifestyle and exercise right. Book your consultation with me to discuss the right program for you. Exercise physiology services can be claimed through Medicare, DVA, NDIS and private health. Maddy xx
