ABOUT US
WE WORK WITH YOUR RESULTS, NOT AGAINST THEM
At CardioCare Clinic, we understand that heart health encompasses a wide spectrum of experiences and conditions.
Whether you're taking proactive steps to protect your heart, managing an ongoing condition, recovering from a recent event or navigating complex challenges like POTS; we're here to provide dedicated, personalised support.
-
Taking charge of your heart's future begins with understanding its unique blueprint. Cardiac risk factors are aspects of your health and lifestyle that, if unaddressed, can increase the likelihood of developing heart conditions.
We focus on the factors you can influence, providing gentle guidance and practical strategies to help you take positive steps. It's about being proactive and building healthy habits that last a lifetime.

Navigating life with a cardiac condition requires ongoing understanding and support.
Whether you're managing coronary artery disease, living with a heart rhythm disorder, or have been diagnosed with a cardiomyopathy; our aim is to help you live as fully and confidently as possible.
We work closely with you to create safe, sustainable exercise programs that can help manage symptoms, improve your functional capacity, and enhance your overall quality of life.
-
Experiencing a cardiac event or undergoing heart surgery can be a significant and often challenging experience.
We provide structured, personalised exercise and education programs that are carefully tailored to your unique recovery timeline and needs.
Our goal is to help you safely regain your physical strength, rebuild your confidence, and smoothly transition back to your daily activities with a renewed sense of well-being.

Living with POTS brings its own unique set of challenges, often involving symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, and heart rate fluctuations particularly when standing. We understand how frustrating and invisible this condition can sometimes feel.
Our approach for POTS focuses on gentle, targeted exercise strategies designed to help you build stability, gently improve fitness and improve symptom management.
HI THERE, I’M SOPHIE
Embarking on a journey to better heart health can feel like a significant step; and quite often a challenging one. It's a path that requires care and understanding, and I'm here to gently guide you along the way.
My personal approach to your heart health journey is shaped by a unique blend of expertise and understanding. I'm an Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP), having completed my Bachelor of Exercise and Sports Science (majoring in Exercise Physiology) at the University of Queensland. I'm also an experienced Cardiac Sonographer with my Graduate Diploma of Medical Ultrasound (Cardiac) from the University of South Australia. This unique background allows me to bring a deeper understanding of your heart's intricate functions and structures directly to your care, thoughtfully designing personalised, safe, and effective exercise programs that are tailored to your individual needs and condition.
This clinic was inspired by my own father's journey with cardiac experiences. His journey gave me a profound appreciation for the dedicated support needed and how consistent movement is so integral to recovery and well-being.
My mission is to create a safe, supportive and personalised space where you can gently rebuild your physical well-being and proactively manage your heart health. I'm here to listen, to support and to celebrate every positive step you take.
