The Story Behind Empowering Exercise Physiology
Meet Lachlan Crowther: More Than Just an Exercise Physiologist
When you step into Empowering Exercise Physiology, you're not just entering another clinic. You're stepping into a dream born from personal experience, passion, and a deep understanding of the NDIS journey.
A Personal Connection
My journey into exercise physiology wasn't just a career choice—it was a calling inspired by my sister, Kate. Living with muscular dystrophy, Kate has been an NDIS participant since the scheme's inception. Watching her navigate the complexities of the system, I saw firsthand the challenges and frustrations faced by participants and their families.
But I also saw something else: the transformative power of tailored, compassionate care.
From Insight to Action
Kate’s experiences lit a fire within me. I realised that with my knowledge of exercise physiology and my intimate understanding of life with a disability, I could make a real difference. Not just for Kate, but for countless others on similar journeys.
This realisation led me to found Empowering Exercise Physiology in Lismore and Ballina over six years ago. My mission? To create a space where NDIS participants aren't just clients—they're partners in their own transformation.
A Journey of Growth
My path hasn't been straightforward. Before focusing on NDIS support, I cut my teeth working with ex-defense personnel in Victoria. This experience taught me invaluable lessons about resilience, the impact of trauma, and the power of tailored physical interventions.
These lessons have been the cornerstone of my approach with NDIS participants. Whether it's complex injuries, weight loss journeys, or mental health challenges, the skills I've honed over a decade in disability support work have proven invaluable.
Why NDIS Specialisation Matters
The NDIS can be a maze of bureaucracy and red tape. But it doesn't have to be. My experience—both personal and professional—has given me a unique ability to navigate this system. I don't just work within the NDIS framework; I optimise it to unlock the full potential of every participant's plan.
Looking Forward
Today, Empowering Exercise Physiology stands as a testament to what's possible when passion meets expertise. We've helped over 53 NDIS participants achieve their personalised goals, each success fueling our drive to do more.
But we're just getting started. My vision is to continue growing, learning, and innovating—always with the goal of empowering more individuals to live their fullest lives.
