Program details

Phyx You Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation's Diabetes Exercise Class runs on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Diabetes is a medical condition where the body has high levels of glucose that the body is unable to use all of. Diabetes can lead to other medical conditions such as heart attack, kidney failure, loss of limbs, blindness and shorter life expectancy and is a prevalent condition amongst the middle age to older age populations. The class is designed to incorporate high intensity strength and aerobic exercises which research evidence tells us is the best way to burn off excess glucose in the body as well as effectively manage blood glucose levels. If you are someone who has Type 2 Diabetes, which accounts for approximately 85% of all diabetes, there is a Medicare funded program that you can attend here as well, just ring up and speak to one of our friendly admin staff or our Exercise Physiologist that can further discuss this with you. These exercises target every muscle so your whole body gets a work out that it will enjoy and thank you for.
