Exercise physiology in Mummel.

We treat Mummel residents from our Goulburn clinic — about 33 minutes and 21 km away.

Local care

Exercise physiology for Mummel residents.

The drive from Mummel follows Range Road for about 33 minutes, covering roughly 21 kilometres of winding tableland road that takes longer than the distance alone suggests. Rural farming families out this way tend to delay dealing with chronic conditions like heart disease or COPD simply because the trip feels like a bigger commitment than it should — which is exactly where a well-planned exercise physiology program helps, spacing sessions out to fortnightly with solid home exercises carrying the weeks between.

We also support strength rebuilding after injury or surgery for Mummel residents, and falls prevention work for older tableland property owners managing uneven ground daily. It's not about weekly visits here — it's about making each one count.

Medicare, DVA, private, and NDIS funding are all available, and we'll confirm what applies before you make the trip.

Getting here

The drive in from Mummel.

Mummel sits north-west of Goulburn, about 21 km from the clinic and roughly 33 minutes away via Range Road. Our clinic is at 37 Ross Street in the centre of Goulburn, with parking on site — an easy trip for a first assessment or a standing block of appointments.

What we treat

What Mummel patients see us for.

Exercise physiology is exercise prescribed like medicine. Our EPs are ESSA-accredited and four-year university trained, and they're the right call for chronic disease, cancer recovery, getting strong again after surgery, and the longer rehab arcs that don't fit inside a physio block.

  • Chronic conditionstype 2 diabetes, heart disease, COPD
  • Building strength safely for back, knee, and hip pain
  • Rehab after injury or surgery
  • Cancer rehabduring and after treatment
  • Falls prevention and strength for older adults
  • Exercise as part of a mental-health plan

Common questions

Questions we get asked a lot.

  • Is the winding drive from Mummel manageable for chronic disease management?

    Yes, we typically space these programs fortnightly rather than weekly, with a detailed home routine and check-ins to keep the program on track between visits from Mummel.

  • What funding applies for a Mummel resident managing heart disease or COPD?

    Medicare covers exercise physiology under a Chronic Disease Management plan with a GP referral. DVA, private, and NDIS (where eligible) are also available — we'll confirm which fits your situation.

  • How is an exercise physiologist different from a personal trainer?

    An accredited exercise physiologist is a four-year university-trained clinician registered with ESSA, qualified to assess and prescribe exercise for diagnosed medical conditions, injuries, and chronic disease. Personal training is an unregulated industry credential. EP is the recognised discipline for medical exercise, and it's claimable under Medicare, NDIS, WorkCover, and DVA where a trainer isn't.

  • Can I claim exercise physiology on Medicare?

    Yes, with a GP Chronic Disease Management plan, which covers up to five rebated allied-health visits a year across all disciplines. EP is also funded through NDIS, WorkCover, CTP, and DVA, or you can book privately without any referral. Bring your plan or referral to the first appointment.
