Interested in sports physiotherapy?
Have you considered clinical exercise physiology as being a more suitable pathway than physiotherapy?
“Where physiotherapists assist people with movement disorders using techniques to assist muscles and joints to move to their full potential, clinical exercise physiologists use exercise to prevent and rehabilitate disease and injury in the community”.
Students will study an Exercise and Sport Science Australia (ESSA) accredited undergraduate exercise science degree followed by graduate studies in exercise physiology. The following are examples of courses at Victorian universities:
