UQ Healthy Living

UQ Healthy Living in Toowong is a University of Queensland allied-health and exercise clinic designed especially for adults over 50. It brings clinical expertise and supervised exercise together in one place, giving members the reassurance of qualified staff and university students working under guidance to help them move better and stay healthy as they age.

What sets it apart is the personalised, watchful approach. Members work through programs designed specifically for their needs and health goals, with staff and students keeping a close eye on technique and progress. Long-term members describe noticeable improvements in their health and a genuinely positive, age-appropriate environment, right down to the music, where exercise becomes a pleasant routine rather than a chore. Many also enjoy the mutual exchange of helping students learn while achieving their own goals.

Services reach well beyond the gym floor, spanning clinical exercise physiology, physiotherapy, group exercise, yoga and restorative care, plus a members' studio for independent training. UQ Healthy Living suits older adults wanting expert, supervised exercise, anyone managing health conditions or preparing for or recovering from surgery, and Toowong locals after a supportive, knowledgeable clinic where they feel valued and looked after.
