Exercise physiology in Blackburn
Services Offered
Summit Health Group’s Blackburn clinic provides accredited exercise physiology for adults over 60 across Melbourne’s eastern suburbs. We work with clients managing osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, Parkinson’s disease, falls risk, chronic conditions, and post-surgical recovery — delivering ongoing weekly programs designed for long-term strength, balance, and independence.
Our Blackburn clients don’t attend for a short course of sessions. They attend weekly because consistent, progressive exercise produces better outcomes over time. The longer we work together, the more we understand your body — and the better your results.

What makes the Blackburn clinic different
The Blackburn clinic serves Melbourne’s eastern suburbs — a community with a high proportion of older adults who want to stay active, independent, and out of the medical system for as long as possible.
Our Blackburn team — Megan, Georgia, and Josh — have deep experience working with adults managing complex and chronic conditions. Sessions are one-to-one, unhurried, and built around what matters to you.
We don’t offer generic gym programs. We offer a clinical exercise program, designed by an accredited exercise physiologist, that adapts as your capacity grows.
Get Started at Our Blackburn Clinic
If you’re looking for a reputable exercise physiology clinic in Blackburn with a holistic allied health approach, Summit Health Group is here to help.
Conditions we treat
- Osteoporosis and low bone density
- Osteoarthritis — hip, knee, and spine
- Falls risk and balance impairment
- Parkinson’s disease
- Chronic heart disease and metabolic conditions
- Diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2)
- Post-surgical recovery — hip and knee replacement
- Neurological conditions
- Generalised deconditioning and muscle loss (sarcopenia)
What to expect from your first visit
Your first session is an assessment. We take time to understand your medical history, your current limitations, and your goals — whether that’s staying independent at home, recovering from a hip replacement, or managing osteoporosis long-term.
From there, we design a program specific to you. Most clients attend weekly. Over time, we track your progress, adjust your program, and keep you moving forward.
Why ongoing weekly sessions produce better results
A single block of sessions won’t change your long-term health. What changes it is consistency — a weekly relationship with an exercise physiologist who knows your body, tracks your progress, and adjusts your program as your capacity grows.
Our Blackburn clients build strength, reduce falls risk, manage their conditions more confidently, and maintain independence for longer. That’s what weekly, ongoing exercise physiology produces — not a quick fix, but a sustained change.
