As practitioners, we completely understand the concerns among our ageing patient population and would like to reassure you all that we are doing everything in our power to maintain a healthy, safe and upbeat clinical environment for you all. In addition to our usual sanitary protocol, LifeInMotion has implemented additional precautionary measures to assist with preventi...on. We would like to reassure our wider patient population that general rehabilitation consultations, womens health and all individual treatment sessions will remain as per usual with the addition of increased sanitary measures. However, our rehab group sessions will see some temporary changes. Once on the other side of this rapidly unfolding situation, we fully intend to return to group sessions as usual, however in the meantime the following changes will apply. Temporary changes to group sessions: Patient numbers in each group will be limited. Increased frequency of group times will be opened to allow for this change We ask that you arrive in the waiting room no earlier than 5 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment Hand sanitiser provided is to be used on arrival and prior to entering the gym We ask that you do not enter the gym until advised to allow for thorough cleaning Antibacterial wipes provided are to be used to wipe down all equipment after use Please, if you are feeling unwell, call to reschedule your appointment During this time, your health and wellbeing is our number one priority and we are more than happy to adjust your treatment method as necessary.

09.01.2022 CLINIC UPDATE - Monday 23.03.20 Firstly, we hope that everyone is doing well, both physically and mentally, during this time. Secondly, with the recent government measures put in place last night we would like to advise all patients that our Allied Health Clinic remains open for business, at this stage. Our women’s health, rehabilitation consultations, paediatric disability programs and general one on one treatment sessions are going ahead - with the mandatory social distan...cing and sanitisation measures in place. Additionally, home visits will continue with these precautions in place. Unfortunately due to these necessary measures, rehab groups will be capped to allow for the 4mx4m distancing in the clinic. We understand that this is a difficult time for everyone and we will do everything in our power to keep our patients happy, healthy and active during this time. So today - please ask us about your options. Home program, video consultations, Telehealth or home visits. We are here to support you during this time and want to reassure all of you that no matter what happens, LifeInMotion will be here for you throughout this rough patch, and on the other side. We will keep you updated as the situation unfolds. Have a lovely day and we hope to see you at your next appointment. - K

07.01.2022 Heart Disease is the single leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Australia and is accountable for 51 deaths every day! Australia's biggest serial killer. So what exactly is Heart Disease? You may have also heard Heart Disease referred to as Cardiovascular Disease of Coronary Artery Disease which refers to a build-up of plaque within the walls of the arteries which supply blood to the heart (more technically known as atherosclerosis). This build up can begin from a you...ng age, and generally manifest’s into serious problems later in life. Statistics have shown that 73%, which is almost three quarters of Australians between the ages of 30 and 65 years have been told by their doctor that they have at least one risk factor for Heart Disease. As serious as that is, there is good news! Many of the risk factors for Heart Disease are modifiable including physical activity levels, weight, diet and other lifestyle factors. As Exercise Physiologist’s we can assist you with reducing your risk of Heart Disease through safe and individualised exercise prescription and lifestyle modifications. Speak to your GP today about a referral or give us a call on (07) 49510156 to speak to one of our Exercise Physiologist’s! #heartfoundation #hearthealth #exercisephysiology
