What is health and wellness to you? Is it cooking the right food at home and knowing where to source the right ingredients. It may be going to the gym, or spending time outdoors or engaging yourself in mediation. The choice is yours.
At Distinctive Options we encourage you to enrol in the specific activities that work for you in an environment that is dedicated to your health and wellbeing.
We offer these services as part of our Lifestyles programs across all of our locations, in addition to our Independent Living Services.
A number of participants now receive regular consultations with Occupational and Speech Therapists, Physiotherapists and a range of Allied Health Support Services.
When you first talk to us, we take the necessary steps to fully understand your needs. You are always more important than your NDIS funding. We want to know what life you want to live, where you want to be so we can fully understand how we can serve you best.
Go swimming, visit the gym, get outside and increase your fitness at your own pace. We can help you achieve your fitness goals by tailoring a program that is suitable to your dreams, wants and needs.
