While there are similarities, Physiotherapists focus on assessing and treating injuries, pain and movement challenges, often using hands-on techniques and early-stage rehabilitation. Exercise Physiologists focus on long-term, personalised exercise programs that build strength, confidence, independence and everyday function. Physios support with “getting you moving safely,” while EPs support you to “keep moving well” in real-life settings like home, school or community gyms. At Novita, they often work together to support your goals.
