Podiatry
Podiatrists specialise in the health of the foot, ankle, and lower limbs. They are equipped to prevent, diagnose, and treat a wide range of conditions. Additionally, they can address foot issues that arise from underlying medical conditions like diabetes and arthritis.
Exercise Physiology
An exercise physiologist is a highly trained allied health professional who specialises in understanding the body’s response to exercise. They possess far more knowledge and expertise than your average personal trainer or gym instructor. Exercise physiologists are required to have tertiary education and possess extensive knowledge about the human body and the benefits that exercise has on it, both mentally and physically.
