    How do I get started?

    You will need to book a screening assessment with our Exercise Physiologist. It's important that we have a good understanding of any injuries, underlying medical conditions and medications prior to participating, so please bring this information to your appointment.

     

    You will also need a medical clearance from your GP or Specialist to start a Phase 3 Cardiac Rehabilitation exercise program.
