Thanks to bulk billing, we can offer eligible patients Medicare-subsidized classes, making it easier to incorporate regular physical activity into your routine.
Regular exercise is a cornerstone of effective diabetes management. Evidence shows that physical activity significantly enhances diabetes control and contributes to overall well-being. Our classes are led by qualified exercise professionals, including Exercise Physiologists, Allied Health Assistants, and Physiotherapists, ensuring you receive expert guidance in a supportive group setting.
Our Exercise Physiologists lead each class to ensure exercises are performed safely and effectively.
Enjoy a motivating and friendly atmosphere while you work towards your health goals.
Classes are heavily subsidized by Medicare, making them more accessible.
Maintain a healthy weight and improve insulin efficiency.
Lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart disease.
Manage stress levels effectively through regular physical activity.
We’ll evaluate your current health, physical status, and exercise history to tailor a plan that meets your needs.
Collaborate with us to set achievable goals for your health, exercise, and well-being.
Receive education on exercise techniques, frequency, and intensity to ensure you get the most out of your program.
Assess whether group sessions are right for you, with options to suit individual needs.
Where needed, we can provide reports to your GP or specialists to keep them updated on your progress.
To access Medicare-subsidized classes, obtain a referral from your doctor. Ask them to complete the referral form for you.
If you’re not eligible for Medicare, you can still join our classes as a private client. Contact us to book your initial assessment, and you may be able to claim the costs through your private health fund.
Wonderful facility for pool therapy and exercise. Staff are friendly and helpful and the pool and
surrounds are clean and well maintained. Physio Robyn is wonderful and helped me with a program,
now self guided, to assist in improving mobility and strengthen muscles. It is an enjoyable and gentle
way to exercise.
Warm, soothing water.
Wide range of equipment available for following your therapy plan independently.
Beautiful social atmosphere. No judgement. Great friendships to be formed.
Amazing, highly skilled, caring exercise physiologists working with clients of all ages and range of disabilities. Great love and compassion shown.
Staff so welcoming.
I call it the "Pool of Love".
I was very impressed with Mark Johnston's treatment and advice. I'm 6 months post knee replacement and still suffering pain and swelling and wondering how I could possibly do more to speed my recovery - nothing seemed to be having the desired effect. Mark pinpointed my physical problems, explained the reason behind each exercise, and has given me a plan of action that I feel very positive about. Excellent service!!
I found this place through a friend and through a care plan ,the staff are very friendly and professional I found myself to be very comfortable with the surroundings and the way the staff keep everyone safe.I found that they have classes which are suiting me The only thing that would be great if you could have more free time to visit the site. The pricing is affordable and who can put a price on your health and mobility. Give them ago you wont regret it.
Madison is fantastic. Worked out detailed exercise program for me, worked through it; she understands I may not be able to afford to keep coming after the Care Plan, but has made me feel confident to work at it on my own for a while then maybe come back at intervals to see her and/or to come on casual visits. I'm really impressed; I felt in a limbo with nowhere to go to do something about my back, but my time with her has made me feel more positive about the possibilities. Thanks so much. Dee
We have been coming to Adelaide Active for a number of years. My son attends the swimclusion class which he loves and his safety awareness in the water has improved greatly, and his swimming strokes have improved also. My youngest son who is sensory, made huge changes from attending. The beautiful facilities are top notch, clean, the pool is lovely and warm but mostly the staff are so friendly, caring and go above and beyond to support our kids needs.
Watching the team work happily and professionally together, supporting their clients with their health goals makes me so happy that we attend such a great business.
Highly recommend
