Living on the Coffs Coast is great and in our opinion one of the great appeals of it is the access to outstanding sporting facilities and a fantastic climate to play sport all year round. Unfortunately, injuries are always a part of sport and one thing that is often missing during rehab of an injury is the bridge between where physio stops and the return to sport. There is often too big of a step up in intensity from the rehab exercises prescribed by a physio to the intensity required at training and during a game. This leads to an increased risk of re-injury but also developing a new injury as well as lower levels of performance.
At Coffs Harbour Exercise Physiology, we pride ourselves on being able to provide that bridge between physio-led rehab and return to sport. Aaron Pateman holds a Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science and a Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology, and has been actively involved in fitness and training since qualifying as a Personal Trainer in 2009. As an Accredited Exercise Physiologist, Aaron delivers clinical exercise interventions for individuals with acute musculoskeletal injuries, combining his education with a genuine passion for sport and an active lifestyle. He provides individualised and group exercise programming, implementing strategies that build confidence, motivation and exercise adherence to help clients return to the activities they love.
It is this combination of education, experience and first hand sporting knowledge that helps us to provide an exceptional end stage return to sport rehabilitation service.
