Testimonials“I have been suffering back injuries and general back wear and tear due to my work for over twenty years. I had real concerns about my ability to continue in the in the work that I enjoy. Injuries were one thing but I was finding that my recovery time was taking longer and longer as I got older. I was finding I would aggravate an injury before it had had a chance to recover. Dale has given me back some of my lost flexibility and has shown me some of the habits my back has developed to try and compensate for its weaknesses. I now have an exercise program that has really helped to free up my back. What has been very noticeable is that after I have had an injury, my recovery time is greatly reduced. I do not hesitate to recommend Dale Ischia as an Exercise Physiologist, she is very knowledgeable and is very good at what she does.”

"For a period of approximately three years I suffered extreme back pain that resulted in hospitalisation twice during this time. I had to be transported by ambulance to the Epworth Hospital as I could not stand or sit. It was impossible for me to lead any sort of normal life and I was becoming used to taking strong anti-inflammatory drugs accompanied by equally strong pain killers.
Brad Taylor was recommended to me through a friend and after an initial consultation, I engaged his services twice weekly.
After several therapeutic sessions, my condition improved amazingly.
Now through constant practice and attention from Brad I do not have any back pain and can lead a thoroughly normal life. reviously I could not play sport, sit for any length of time in a car or aeroplane or even walk for any long distance. Had to slip on my shoes and get someone to tie laces for me. The change is quite unbelievable, allowing me to do anything I want.
He is extremely competent, professional and reliable. His knowledge of what can be achieved physically is vast and experienced.
I could not recommend him highly enough as he has changed my life."

"Dear Mental Health Case Manager,
It has been eleven weeks since you arranged for me to see an Exercise Physiologist. I thought you might be interested in my progress so far. I’m very pleased to report that four of my six goals have been met. But more importantly, Brad has been able to modify my eating habits and introduce a program of fitness that I can continue to use into the future.
As well as feeling physically stronger, the whole package has also given me a strong mental boost. Tasks that before seemed too hard, I now find can be tackled with my more positive attitude. All in all, a terrific experience.
I found both Brad’s personality and his encouragement most effective. If you have other clients that may be thinking about using an Exercise Physiologist, I’d be happy to relate my own experience.
Thanks to you and Brad, I finally feel that I have the answer to my medication related weight gain problem."
