How Can We Help?
Exercise physiology and the NDIS may not be apparent to everyone, so let us explain how we can help. NDIS planners are typically unaware of the difference between Exercise Physiology (EP) and Physiotherapy (PT). To get the most from your NDIS funding, it is essential to understand the difference:
- A physiotherapist is university-qualified to assess, diagnose, treat, and prevent a wide range of health conditions and movement disorders.
- An exercise physiologist is university-qualified to design, deliver, and evaluate safe and effective exercise interventions for people with acute, sub-acute, or chronic medical conditions, injuries, or disabilities.
Accredited Exercise Physiologists can provide services under the NDIS to help improve the Health and well-being of NDIS participants in the Capacity-Building Budget.
The Capacity Building budget helps the participants improve and develop skills to help them reach independence and their long-term goals. Under the Improved Health and Wellbeing category, the Capacity Building budget includes exercise or diet advice to manage the impact of disability.
How does an EP use NDIS funding?
- An intensive burst of therapy
- Community integration –public gym, work gym, or hydrotherapy
- Home Exercise programs
- Training of family and support workers
- Exercise equipment prescription
When should you request EP funding?
- Progressive neurological conditions –MS, PD, MND
- Stroke, traumatic or acquired brain injury
- Spinal cord injury
- Mental health – PTSD, Depression
- Pain management, fibromyalgia, arthritis/RA
- Autism, Asperger, Developmental delay
