Frequently Asked Questions

👉Both use exercise to help the improve the health of their clients, although there is a large difference overall.

A  personal training (PT) qualification can be acquired in less than 6  weeks of training and this allows for instruction to deliver fitness  programs to persons of low risk only (i.e. no injuries or health  conditions - "apparently healthy populations").

Exercise  Physiology (EP) requires a minimum 4 years of university education. AEPs  (accredited EPs) are allied health professionals who are trained in  managing chronic health conditions and providing safe exercise  inteventions.

Some of these conditions include:

✅Musculoskeletal conditions such as Osteoporosis, Osteoarthritis, post Orthopaedic Surgery;
✅Cardiorespiratory conditions such as post heart attack, heart disease, high blood pressure;
✅Neurological conditions such as Motor Neuron Disease, Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinson’s Disease.
✅Metabolic conditions such as Syndrome X, Diabetes, Dyslipidaemia and Obesity 


 Both AEPs and physios are university qualified and allied health professionals, though there are many differences.

👉Physiotherapy  is the treatment of injury, disease and disorders through physical  methods – such as exercise, massage, manipulation and other treatments.
 

👉AEPs  specialise in exercise and movement for the prevention and management  of chronic diseases, injuries and complex medical conditions. AEPs  possess extensive knowledge, skills and experience in clinical exercise  delivery and health-behaviour change counselling for people with chronic  disease or injury. This is what differentiates AEPs from other allied  health professionals 


Everyone would  benefit from seeing an AEP. Exercise can be used for both prevention  and management of chronic illness, though it also has multiple immediate  benefits. As AEPs are highly qualified to deliver exercise  intervention, AEPs are well suited to design highly specific programs  tailored to the individual.
 

Whether your goals are increasing  fitness or muscle strength, improving endurance for an upcoming sports  event, strengthening bone and promoting bone formation, reducing  cholesterol, assisting with current or past cancer treatment, managing  chronic pain, returning to exercise after a cardiac event, surgery or  injury etc.  AEPs are the people to see. Depending on your situation,  sessions can also be partly claimed under Medicare, workers compensation  or via private health insurance.
