Physio vs EP

🥊 Welcome to the ring!

In this episode of the BioJam Podcast, Jess (physiotherapist) and Sam (exercise physiologist) step into the metaphorical boxing ring to break down the key differences — and surprising similarities — between physiotherapy and exercise physiology.

👊 Who prescribes what?🤕 Can both manage injuries and chronic conditions?📚 What do the guidelines say, and how do they help us work better together?

Expect some friendly jabs, evidence-backed takes, and plenty of laughs as we tackle the myths and mashups of these two allied health professions. Whether you're a fellow clinician or someone just trying to work out who you should book in with — this one's for you.

🧠 Spoiler alert: It’s less about turf wars and more about teamwork.
