Life Care Active

Important Update | COVID-19

Life Care Active groups have recommenced, all sessions will be held in accordance with the recommendations and guidelines as set out by the Department of Health regarding COVID 19.

As allied health services are considered ‘essential’ under current government recommendations, we are continuing to offer individual allied health services (Physiotherapy, Exercise Physiology, Occupational Therapy and Podiatry) from our Payneham clinic and in-home.

If you are looking to continue exercising under the supervision of an allied health professional, or want input to design a personalised home based program, please give us a call on 8168 7600.

Please be assured that we are taking extra precautions to ensure our Payneham clinic meets clinical hygiene standards including:

  • Therapists employ thorough hand washing measures between each and every client

  • Hand sanitiser is available in every studio, treatment room and reception space, and clients are encouraged to use it when entering the service and when leaving

  • Reception and administration staff are using hand sanitiser after receiving cash or card transactions, or having other physical contact with clients

  • All surfaces are disinfected after contact using hospital grade disinfectant, including gym equipment, treatment beds (especially face holes), treatment utensils, stair rails and door handles

  • Our linen is professionally laundered and changed between each client

Life Care aims to promote and encourage active ageing.

To support this, we have established Life Care Active - the first choice in health, fitness and wellbeing for men and women 50+ in Adelaide.

Life Care Active provides a range of specialist allied health services and individual and group fitness programs. We are not a gym or a fitness studio offering a ‘one size fits all’ approach.

This unique combination of onsite health service practitioners and fitness professionals, ensures that your treatment complements your fitness or movement program to enhance flexibility, strength and overall good health to be ‘active’ every day.

By specialising and focusing on people 50+, we can make sure our programs and health services are appropriate, targeted and relevant to your needs, at your stage of life.

Our exercise programs range from group sessions, to one-on-one personal training to address any specific areas or help with fitness, weight loss, rehabilitation of an injury, or recovery from surgery. 

Our health services include physiotherapy, podiatry, dietitian and occupational therapy. These services and some of our exercise programs are also provided at our Residential and Retirement Living locations.
