Four Point Therapy
Exercise Physiology

Exercise Physiology that fits into everyday life.

Mobile NDIS Exercise Physiology across Melbourne.

Exercise Physiology is one of the most versatile Allied Health therapies available through the NDIS. While many people associate it with fitness and exercise, it can support much more than physical health alone — becoming a pathway to greater independence, stronger routines, improved wellbeing and increased participation in everyday life. At Four Point Therapy, our Exercise Physiologists create personalised programs that feel achievable, practical and tailored to the individual.

Our approach

A more thoughtful way to deliver therapy.

We don't operate on a "next available" model. Every referral is reviewed by our Intake and Admin team, and we take the time to match each Participant with the most suitable Exercise Physiologist based on their goals, support needs and individual circumstances. The relationship between a Participant and their Therapist plays an important role in engagement and long-term outcomes — when people feel comfortable, understood and supported, they're more likely to stay engaged and motivated over time.

Flexible delivery

Flexible, mobile therapy — built around you.

No two Participants are the same, and neither are the environments where they feel most comfortable accessing support. Our Exercise Physiologists deliver therapy in a range of settings — at home, in local gyms, leisure centres, aquatic facilities, schools, workplaces, parks or other community settings — and can also support Participants living in SDA and SIL environments. Wherever possible, we deliver therapy in environments that are familiar, accessible and relevant, so the setting itself becomes part of the intervention. Our Exercise Physiologists bring any equipment needed for the session.

More than just exercise.

Exercise Physiology looks different for everyone. Some Participants engage in sessions to improve strength, mobility or balance. Others may be working towards greater independence, developing healthy routines, improving wellbeing or participating more confidently in their community. For many, the most significant outcome isn't improved fitness — it's feeling more comfortable leaving the house, establishing a routine, or becoming more independent in daily life. Regular physical activity also positively influences mood, confidence and psychosocial wellbeing. There is no baseline level of fitness, strength or mobility required — sessions are adapted to the individual and tailored to people of all ages, abilities and support needs.

Our team

Experienced, NDIS-focused clinicians.

We pride ourselves on having Exercise Physiologists who are experienced working within the NDIS and genuinely understand the complexities that can come with disability, health conditions and long-term support needs. They know how to deliver supports that align with Participant goals and funding requirements — including assessments, reporting and collaboration with broader support teams.

Beyond clinical experience, our Exercise Physiologists place a strong focus on building genuine therapeutic relationships and creating an environment where Participants feel supported, encouraged and empowered. As a team, we continue investing in ongoing learning, professional development and evidence-based practice.

Collaborative approach

Working alongside your wider team.

We work closely with Participants, families, Support Coordinators and broader treating teams to ensure supports remain aligned, practical and consistent. Clear communication, reliable reporting and a collaborative approach are a strong focus, and we aim to be a provider that people feel confident working alongside long term.

Person-centred

A person-centred approach to everyday life.

Our approach goes beyond exercise programs or physical goals alone. We take the time to understand the individual, their strengths, goals, environment and what meaningful progress looks like for them. For some, success means feeling stronger and more confident moving through daily life. For others, it might mean returning to community activities, developing a consistent routine or becoming more independent at home.
