At The Garage Exercise Physiology, we deliver individualised, science-backed exercise programs grounded in the latest guidelines from Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA), the World Health Organization, and international consensus on physical activity as first-line therapy for chronic conditions. Accredited Exercise Physiologists (AEPs) are university-trained specialists in prescribing safe, effective exercise to improve physiological function, reduce symptoms, enhance quality of life, and lower disease progression risk—often with measurable improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness, muscle strength, glycaemic control, joint mobility, and mental wellbeing.We accept multiple funding streams so cost is never a barrier to evidence-based care.Medicare – Chronic Condition Management Plan (GPCCMP / formerly CDM)Under the updated Medicare Chronic Condition Management framework (effective from July 2025), eligible patients with a chronic condition (lasting ≥6 months) can access up to 5 individual allied health services per calendar year—including exercise physiology—via a GP Chronic Condition Management Plan.
  • Bulk-billed 30-minute consultations — No out-of-pocket cost when claimed under Medicare item 10960/10961 (or equivalent allied health items).
  • Eligibility — Requires a GP-prepared plan with ongoing communication between GP and AEP for holistic management.
  • Conditions commonly supported — Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, osteoarthritis, hypertension, osteoporosis, COPD, and other musculoskeletal or metabolic disorders.
  • Evidence base — Regular supervised exercise reduces all-cause mortality by 20-40%, improves exercise capacity, decreases dyspnoea/fatigue/pain, and enhances health-related quality of life (ESSA position statements; WHO chronic condition guidelines).
Speak to your GP about a referral; we handle the rest.Medicare – Type 2 Diabetes Group ServicesPeople with type 2 diabetes may access:
  • 1 bulk-billed initial 30-minute individual assessment (to establish baseline function, set goals, and design your program).
  • Up to 8 partially subsidised group exercise sessions per calendar year (typically $10–15 gap fee per 60-minute session in small groups of 3–5 participants).
These sessions follow structured, progressive protocols shown to optimise HbA1c, insulin sensitivity, body composition, and cardiovascular risk factors.Private Health Insurance RebatesMany Australian private health funds provide rebates for Exercise Physiology consultations under extras cover (often “ancillary” or “natural therapies” categories). Rebate amounts vary by policy—check your fund directly (e.g., via their app or member portal) using provider details: Provider No. [insert your provider number if applicable].Workers’ Compensation (WorkCover) & CTP (Motor Accident) InsurancePost-injury recovery demands precise, progressive loading to restore pre-injury capacity safely and sustainably. We collaborate with insurers, treating doctors, and rehabilitation coordinators to deliver:
  • Goal-oriented programs targeting return-to-work, functional independence, and pre-injury activity levels.
  • Evidence-based protocols for soft-tissue, orthopaedic, and chronic pain presentations.
We’re experienced in Compulsory Third Party (CTP) and WorkCover NSW claims—submit your approval letter or insurer details when booking.NDIS – National Disability Insurance SchemeFor NDIS participants, exercise physiology falls under Improved Health and Wellbeing and Improved Daily Living supports. We create customised programs to build strength, endurance, mobility, balance, and confidence—empowering greater independence and participation in daily/community life.Focus areas include:
  • Progressive resistance and aerobic training.
  • Functional task-specific exercises.
  • Self-management education and behaviour change strategies.
Self-managed or plan-managed participants can book directly; we provide goal-aligned reports for plan reviews.Ready to Start?Evidence consistently shows that tailored exercise is among the most potent, low-risk interventions for chronic disease and disability management.
