Accredited Exercise Physiologists are allied health professionals providing exercise and lifestyle therapies to prevent and manage chronic disease, injury, and disability.
An Exercise Physiologist (EP) is a 4 year, University-trained Allied Health professional who is an exercise prescription expert. They will work with you to design a specific exercise program tailored to your injuries, health status and goals.
Our Exercise Physiologists at Sports & Spinal can help your condition by working with you to formulate an appropriate treatment plan to assist in reaching your specific goals. Exercise Physiologists use movement and exercise in conjunction with specific education and motivational guidance to treat and manage your conditions.
Sports & Spinal’s accredited Exercise Physiologist can assist with Diabetes & Obesity, General Health & Wellbeing, Mental Health Issues, Musculoskeletal Injuries, Neurological Conditions, Strength & Conditioning, Women’s Health, Aging, Chronic Pain, Fatigue, Cardiovascular, Pulmonary, Paediatrics and Cancer.
Exercise facilitates changes within the body that increases its efficiency. This allows us to be able to manage conditions or diseases, that can cause our bodies to not function to the best ability.
You can expect our Exercise Physiologist to listen to your personal story and ask questions, so they can work with you to guide an appropriate treatment plan. Our Exercise Physiologist will complete a detailed, goal-focused, clinical, and functional assessment.
Treatment will vary and be specific to you but will likely involve modified movement and exercises to build your capacity and function through strength, fitness, balance, and more. Treatment will change and progress while working alongside your Exercise Physiologist. Our Exercise physiologists will provide education on health, conditions, injuries and what to do and what not to do may take place in different environments, including our onsite gym, your regular gym and pools, depending on your interests and goals. Our Exercise Physiologist believes in a multi-disciplinary approach and will work with other health professionals to help manage your condition.

Paul Scalise
Exercise Physiologist
Originally from Sydney, Paul is an Accredited Exercise Physiologist with extensive experience in the industry. He completed a Bachelor of Exercise and Sports Science in 2015, moving on to a Master of Exercise Physiology in 2017, both at the Australian Catholic University.
Paul’s knowledge and interests lie in Rheumatic conditions, including Ankylosing Spondylitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis. He also has significant experience in postoperative rehabilitation, as well as musculoskeletal disorders, both acute and chronic disease management, and injury prevention. Paul also has a passion and interest in neurological rehabilitation.
Having previously worked as a Personal Trainer in the fitness industry, Paul draws passion from assisting people to achieve their health goals through physical activity and exercise; he recognises the importance of individuality and helping his clients maintain their day-to-day function by not only understanding their clinical needs but also learning about them as a person. Paul believes tailored exercise and supplemental education are pivotal to helping a client achieve their own vision of their best health and wellbeing.
When he isn’t in the clinic gym, Paul describes himself as a gamer geek; he enjoys all forms, including board games and computer gaming. He also enjoys watching the NRL – he is a Manly Sea Eagles supporter.

Managing back pain isn’t about avoiding movement — it’s about moving smarter.
Our @sportsandspinalkawana physiotherapist Georgia and exercise physiologist Tenikka are demonstrating how we modify Pilates reformer exercises to suit different stages of back pain recovery.
From acute flare-ups to long-term rehab, we use progressions and regressions to safely load the spine, activate stabilising muscles, and rebuild functional movement patterns.
No two backs are the same — and your exercise program shouldn’t be either. Whether we’re focusing on core control, spinal mobility, or graded exposure to load, your plan is tailored to your individual presentation, goals, and pain response.
Because the best results come from individualised care — not cookie-cutter plans.
Your body, your pace, your plan ✅
