The UTS Exercise Physiology Clinic is a not-for-profit teaching and research clinic that provides high quality clincal exercise physiology assessment and treatment services for children, adolescents, adults, and elderly in the general community.
About the Clinic
The UTS Exercise Physiology Clinic provides a service to the community and is a clinical training facility for postgraduate students undertaking our accredited Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology course within the UTS School of Sport, Exercise and Rehabilitation.
Clinic services are provided by our Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology students (as Accredited Exercise Scientists and student Clinical Exercise Physiologists) as part of their clinical placement, and supervised by nationally Accredited Exercise Physiologists (AEPs) with Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA). Clients of the Clinic receive the highest standards of service, and through the duration of the 6-week program, have access to the expertise of AEPs with extensive experience working across various health settings.
The Clinic offers exercise assessments, exercise prescription, and supervised delivery of clinical exercise programs on-site, that are tailored to your individual needs with a person-centred care approach.
Please note that we currently provide 6-week clinical exercise physiology services for two different categories of clinical conditions with different dates of offering. Please see details below.
Exercise Physiology Services
Please note that we currently provide 6-week clinical exercise physiology services for two different categories of clinical conditions with different dates of offering. Please see details below:
Category 1: Muscle, Bone, and Joint Problems (Musculoskeletal Conditions)
This clinic focuses on providing care for people managing musculoskeletal conditions like arthritis, sarcopenia (low muscle mass), osteoporosis (low bone density), tendon issues, muscle or joint pain like lower back or knee pain, post-injury recovery, and more.
This list is not exhaustive. You may contact us to enquire about eligibility if you are unsure.
This clinic is led by our postgraduate students in the early stages of the UTS Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology and is part of an initial stepping-stone into clinical practice. At this stage of their degree, the students are well equipped to deal with the wide range of muscle, bone, and joint issues and can tailor programs to individual fitness level, activity tolerance, and goals in collaboration with our clinical educators (as practising Accredited Exercise Physiologists).
Category 2: Multiple Health Issues (Multimorbidity or Complex Chronic Diseases/Conditions)
This clinic is for people with TWO (or more) health conditions, which can include musculoskeletal concerns AND/OR other conditions like diabetes, mental health challenges, or individuals with cancer AND heart disease (as examples). This list is not exhaustive. You may contact us to enquire about eligibility.
This clinic is led by students in the advanced stages of the UTS Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology who are equipped to handle the complexities of people with multiple conditions. Programs in this clinic are personalised to individual health status, and adjustments are made to help people reach their specific goals in collaboration with our clinical educators (as practising Accredited Exercise Physiologists).
If you are unsure of which Clinic Category you best fit, please contact us at clinicalexercise@uts.edu.au and we can assist you further.
Please note: Clients are NOT able to participate if you are a healthy individual seeking an exercise program to achieve general fitness goals. If this is the case, we encourage you to consider looking into participating in our sister program: UTS Sport & Exercise Science Telepractice Clinic.
An initial evaluation is undertaken to fully evaluate your needs and ensure you receive the best exercise program possible in a safe and welcoming manner. The evaluation will include completing our expression of interest form (link provided below), where you will indicate your preferences for session times (that will remain constant across the 6 week program) and you will answer questions regarding your physical health and medical history.
Once your application has been evaluated by our Clinic staff, we will be in touch with you via telephone as well as follow-up email to further discuss your clinical needs and finalise your exercise screening evaluation.
You may be asked to obtain additional documentation specific to your needs (e.g. medical clearance, Guardian consent, etc), or we may refer you to a specialist Exercise Physiology clinic more suited to your clinical needs if we are unable to cater for you within our clinic.
