Full Time Exercise Physiologist (Scoliosis/Kyphosis Focus) - Brisbane
Are you an ESSA Accredited Exercise Physiologist ready to specialise further? ScoliCare Brisbane is offering a rare full-time role for a motivated Exercise Physiologist to move beyond generalist practice and become a specialist in the non-surgical management of scoliosis and kyphosis.
We are not a standard rehab gym. We are a dedicated allied health spinal clinic driven by innovation, using advanced 3D scanning, custom bracing, and evidence-based exercise protocols to change the trajectory of our patients' lives.
A Deeper Look at Your Role
In this position, you won't just be supervising generic exercises. You will act as a specialized Exercise Physiologist, managing a specific caseload of patients ranging from children and teens to adults.
- Delivering ScoliBalance® Therapy: You will be trained to deliver ScoliBalance®, our specific physiotherapeutic scoliosis specific exercise (PSSE) program. Your sessions will involve:
- Teaching patients in a 1-on-1 setting how to self-correct their posture in 3D (sagittal, coronal, and transverse planes).
- Utilising specific equipment to assist patients in holding corrective postures.
- Integrating breathing mechanics into rehab.
- Patient Education & Motivation: A large portion of our patients are adolescents. Your role is to be their coach and mentor - taking complex clinical concepts and explaining them in a way that motivates a teenager to commit to their rehab.
- Multidisciplinary Collaboration: You will not practice in a silo.
You will collaborate closely with Scoliosis Clinicians (Chiropractors, Osteopaths, Orthotists) and Physiotherapists. You will participate in case conferences to discuss curve progression, brace fitting issues, and treatment adjustments.
Why Choose This Pathway?
- World-Class & Continuous Training: We don't expect you to know scoliosis yet. We provide extensive, structured training in our protocols, starting with a comprehensive induction into ScoliBalance®. The learning does not stop there—we provide continuous career development to ensure you remain at the forefront of scoliosis and kyphosis rehabilitation.
- High-Tech Environment: Step out of the standard gym and into a clinic equipped with state-of-the-art rehabilitation and scanning tools.
- Supportive Team: Join a close-knit, expert team in our Adelaide clinic that values clinical reasoning and professional growth.
What You Need to Succeed
- Accreditation: Full ESSA Accreditation as an Exercise Physiologist (AEP).
- Availability: As many of our patients are school-aged, availability during school holidays is essential.
- Clinical Aptitude: You have a sharp eye for movement mechanics and detail.
- Communication: You are warm, articulate, and capable of building long-term rapport with families.
- Compliance: Current PI Insurance, First Aid/CPR, and Working with Children Check.
