Clinical Functional Training is where one of our skilled Physiotherapists develops and supervises a fully customised exercise program to correct “functional” movement patterns associated with an injury you have had following a detailed assessment. This style of training uses “functional” movement training (that better reflect movements required in every day life) as opposed to isolated muscle training. There is a strong focus on the correct movement technique in order to reduce faulty movement patterns (which often lead to pain and injury if not corrected).
The Physiotherapist will use gym equipment such as pulleys, dumbells, barbell, plyometrics, kettlebells and power bands. Clinical Functional Training focuses on improving core stability, balance, mobility, agility, coordination and strength. Clients will usually progress to independent training (in their preferred gym) or our larger format Functional Training group exercise classes.
Clinical Functional Training is done either 1:1 with a Physio or in a semi-private format, and as such, may be eligible for private health insurance rebates.
