MANSFIELD INTEGRATED HEALTH SERVICE

In early 2010 we were proud to open the Mansfield Integrated Health Service in the building behind the existing clinic. It provides a facility to accommodate our existing allied health professionals as well as allow small group exercise classes to assist people to lose weight and improve their physical function.

The facility houses Dorevitch's Pathology collection centre, has a number of consulting rooms for therapists as well as a gym area for use by the therapists and Physical trainers with their clients.

The small group exercise classes have been well received. Group sessions are run with a particular focus thus far have targeted weight loss, balance and stability, functional strength, men with diabetes, antenatal women, children and a more traditional circuit exercise class. Group sessions are generally for 6 visits after an initial personal assessment. It is hoped group sessions will allow better access to these services by reducing the cost to the individual while at the same time making it a social and motivating experience.
