Stronger for Longer: How Longevity Penrith Supports Healthy Ageing Through My Aged Care
As we grow older, staying active and independent becomes more important than ever – but also more challenging. Whether it’s reduced mobility, chronic illness, fragility, or simply the fear of falling, many older adults find themselves feeling less confident in their bodies and unsure where to turn.
At Longevity Penrith, located inside Club Lime Mulgoa Road, we work closely with older adults funded through My Aged Care to improve strength, function, and quality of life. Led by Rhiannon Freemantle, our Exercise Physiologist and Location Leader, we offer personalised, gym-based support that’s gentle, safe, and goal-focused.
Ageing Isn’t a Decline – It’s a Transition
As we age, changes to strength, balance, bone density, and stamina are common – but they don’t have to mean giving up on the life you enjoy. Many of our clients come to us experiencing:
- Difficulty with stairs, walking, or balance
- A history of falls or fear of falling
- Conditions like arthritis, osteoporosis, diabetes, or heart disease
- Muscle weakness and general frailty
- Recovery from illness, injury, or hospitalisation
Whether your goal is to walk confidently, stay in your own home, keep up with the grandkids, or simply feel stronger day-to-day, we’re here to support you.
How Longevity Penrith Can Help
With My Aged Care funding, eligible clients can access individualised exercise physiology services designed specifically for their needs. Here’s what to expect:
- 1:1, 60-minute sessions focused on your health goals
- Personalised programs for strength, balance, and energy
- Gentle, guided movement in a fully equipped gym environment
- Falls prevention strategies to build confidence and independence
- Collaboration with all your health providers (GP, nurse, or care coordinator) to deliver the best support possible
Our aim is to help you maintain independence, improve daily function, and enjoy a better quality of life, no matter your age or condition.
Funded Support Through My Aged Care
If you or a loved one has a Home Care Package, you may be eligible to receive funding for exercise physiology through Longevity. We work closely with your care coordinator or provider to organise services under your package with ease.

A Word from Rhiannon
“We love working with older adults. Watching someone go from feeling fragile or unsure to walking taller, moving better, and feeling in control again – it’s incredibly rewarding. You’re never too old to start investing in your health.”
Hear from our Clients
“I’ve worked with Rhiannon for the last 5 weeks and she has really helped me to gain the confidence to try and improve my flexibility and movement. For years I have avoided most lower body exercises because of sore knees and hips. With her help I am feeling more and more confident in regaining movement and flexibility in these areas.”
