Rural Connection Allied Health is an allied health clinic based in Toowoomba and servicing the Downs. We are a growing mobile clinic that specialise in Exercise Physiology. Our practitioners offer both individual services from a premium gym in Toowoomba or in the patient’s home and have recently joined with Seven Springs Medical Centre to provide a service area that suits your needs.
Our staff all have a connection to the country and have lived all throughout the Darling Downs and Western Queensland. Living in the communities we serve is incredibly important to us and we believe that this sets us apart. Our staff all live in your communities, have family in your communities, play sport in your local teams and support local businesses – we know what it is like to live here. One of the reasons we are so passionate is because we have seen firsthand the difference in allied health offerings between city and regional areas.
Exercise Physiology is a relatively new area of Allied Health, particularly when compared to others such as Physiotherapy or Occupational Therapy. Accredited Exercise Physiologists, such as our practitioners Harry and Amie, use exercise as a health intervention to help people manage various conditions and disabilities through lifestyle changes and education. All of our exercise programs are evidenced-based to provide the largest health benefit to patients and results can be life changing. Exercise Physiology fits into the spectrum of Allied Health and Exercise Physiologists happily work alongside Doctors, Physiotherapists, Occupational Therapists, Chiropractors and other healthcare practitioners to ensure that your health and wellbeing is well looked after.
Nearly every condition in the world can be helped by exercise. Our practitioners are especially interested in aiding behavioural change which is especially helpful in managing conditions such as diabetes and a variety of heart conditions. We believe that the more educated people are about their injuries or conditions, the better they are able to manage them and this is primarily done through ongoing patient education.
Accredited Exercise Physiologists are here to provide this education to you in language that you understand. Our practitioners work to expel the myth that exercise is only for certain types of people... it's for everyone. Exercise is one of the most effective preventative interventions for all conditions and increased activity levels can be beneficial to everyone.
