What we can offer to CTP/Workers Compensation clients:
I run Health.Habits4Life Activity & Lifestyle Programs including Dietitian (as appropriate) and Exercise Physiology treatment for injured workers (>3 months post injury) under the NSW Workers Compensation Scheme. Psychology sessions can also be arranged if appropriate. Sessions cover activities specific to client capacity and job task requirements, chronic pain management strategies, healthy eating, sleeping strategies, manual handling, work ergonomics and stress management.
What can we offer Medicare clients:
General Practitioners must refer patients with approved chronic health condition under the Enhanced Primary Care (EPC) scheme. Medicare will cover a substantial partial payment whilst the client will pay the remaining gap fee. Your GP can refer to Health.Habits4Life for Dietitian and/or Exercise Physiology treatment services with a maximum allowance of coverage up to 5 visits per annual calendar year. We aim to support you to enjoy maintaining healthier habits for life!
What can we offer Private Health Cover clients:
Rebates are offered by participating private health funds for dietitian and/or exercise physiology treatment. It is the client's responsibility to check cover prior to consultation. Client's private health insurance will fund a substantial partial payment for Dietitian and Exercise Physiology treatment whilst the client is charged the gap fee for the consultation. Exercise Physiology Consultations may be held at my office or at an agreed location (beach, park) if preferred. We aim to support you to reach your health goals and enjoy going it!
What we can offer veteran (DVA) clients:
If you are a white or gold card holder you can access dietitian and/or exercise physiology treatment services for FREE as it is fully funded by the DVA.

We often exercise in the great outdoors, meet other veterans, go on supermarket tours, learn about healthy eating and play mind stimulating games. We also include meditation/relaxation to improve mental health. Treatment services aim to improve quality of life, flexibility, balance and stability, strength, weight loss and general health, giving you the support you need.
