We work with people managing a broad range of conditions - following on from early phase rehabilitation through to long-term health management.

Musculoskeletal Injury & Post-Surgical Recovery

Individually prescribed exercise to rebuild strength, restore movement, and support ongoing recovery following injury or surgery. We work alongside your treating team to progress your rehabilitation beyond the early recovery phase.

Return to Work reconditioning

Structured, goal-directed exercise rehabilitation to support physical recovery and a safe, sustainable return to work. We understand the workers compensation landscape and communicate clearly with all stakeholders.

Chronic Pain

A person-centred approach to movement for people living with persistent pain. We work with you to build confidence, improve function, and work toward what matters to you - guided by your goals, not just your diagnosis.

Healthy Ageing & Falls Prevention

Targeted strength, balance, and mobility programs to reduce falls risk, maintain independence, and support healthy ageing.

Neurological Conditions

Exercise programs for people living with neurological conditions including stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and acquired brain injury- designed to maintain and promote independence, function, and long-term health.

Mental Health

Exercise as an evidence-based adjunct intervention for depression, anxiety, PTSD, and other mental health conditions - tailored to you, your goals, and the environment that works best for you.

We also work with people living with autoimmune conditions, amputation and prosthetic rehabilitation, and cancer recovery.

How Lift helps

How Lift Helps

  • Gym-Based Programs

    We meet you at a gym local to you and build your program using the equipment and environment available.

  • Hydrotherapy Programs

    Water-based exercise for pain management and conditions where water might be a better starting point.

  • Home Programs

    Tailored exercise you can do at home, designed for your space and your capacity. For some people, home is the right environment to begin - and to build on.

Your Questions, Answered

  • An Exercise Physiologist (EP) is a university-qualified allied health professional who specialises in prescribing exercise for people with chronic conditions, injuries, and disabilities. EPs are accredited through Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) and are trained to work with complex health presentations — not just general fitness.

  • Each profession brings a different focus. Physiotherapists are experts in assessing and treating musculoskeletal conditions and injuries, using a combination of manual therapy and exercise-based rehabilitation. Personal trainers support generally healthy people with fitness goals. An Exercise Physiologist specialises in exercise as the primary clinical intervention for people living with chronic conditions, injuries, and disability — designing programs that account for diagnosis, medications, pain, and overall health picture. These professions often work alongside each other, and Lisa frequently collaborates with physiotherapists and other allied health professionals as part of a client's broader care team.

  • Not always. You can self-refer to see an EP at any time. However, to access Medicare, DVA, WorkCover, NDIS, or other funded pathways, a referral from your GP, specialist, or relevant scheme is usually required. If you’re unsure, get in touch and we’ll help you work out the best pathway.

  • Your first session is all about getting to know you — your history, your health, your goals, and what matters to you. Lisa will take the time to listen to your story before completing a thorough assessment, which includes both a conversation about your health and a physical assessment tailored to your presentation. Everything is explained as we go, and you're always welcome to ask questions or let us know if something doesn't feel right. From there, we'll talk with you about what a program could look like — shaped around your goals, your preferences, and what feels manageable for you.

  • No. This is clinical care, not a gym class. Your program is designed around your current capacity — wherever that is. Many of our clients start from a point where they haven’t exercised in a long time, or have been told they can’t. That’s exactly who we’re here for.

  • Comfortable clothing you can move in and supportive closed-in shoes.

  • Lift is a mobile practice. Most sessions happen at a gym local to you. We also offer home-based programs, hydrotherapy, and telehealth depending on your needs and goals. We cover Perth metro, Mandurah, and Bunbury regions.

  • Sessions are typically 45–60 minutes, though this may vary depending on your needs and funding pathway. Your first appointment is usually longer to allow time for a thorough assessment.

  • Yes. Exercise physiology is covered by most private health insurers under extras cover. Check with your fund to confirm your level of cover.

  • If you have a chronic health condition, you may be eligible to access Medicare-subsidised exercise physiology sessions. This is arranged through your GP as part of a Chronic Condition Management Plan. Your GP can advise whether this pathway is appropriate for your situation.
