- Exercise Physiologists specialise in clinical exercise interventions for a broad range of pathological populations.
- These persons may be at risk of developing, or have existing, medical conditions and injuries.
- The aims of AEP interventions are to prevent or manage acute, sub-acute or chronic disease or injury, and assist in restoring one’s optimal physical function, health or wellness.
- These interventions are exercise-based and include health and physical activity education, advice and support for lifestyle modification with a strong focus on achieving behavioural change (ESSA 2018)
