Embrace the Olympic spirit and get active

The Paris Olympic Games are underway! 

Like the Olympians, why not incorporate physical activity into your daily routine?

Members of Monash Health’s Exercise Physiology team at Thomas Street in Dandenong encourage you to pick any activity that gets your heart rate up and invite your friends and family to join you. 

Exercise is good for your body, mind and mood. 

It can lower your risk of developing many chronic diseases, reduce stress, boost your immunity, and improve your sleep. 

The Exercise Physiology team help people re-establish and sustain functional independence, delivering programs in: 

  • exercise rehabilitation 
  • lifestyle modification 
  • prevention and management of chronic diseases and injuries  

Go team!
