Owen William Quiskamp is an Exercise Physiologist based in Como, WA. He works from 191 Thelma Street, Como WA 6152, helping people feel more confident with physical activity and better everyday function.
As an exercise physiologist, Owen focuses on what movement can do for your health. That can be things like building strength, improving cardiovascular fitness, and helping you return to exercise in a way that feels safe and doable. At times, the goal is performance. Other times, it’s simply getting through the week with more energy and less strain.
Owen commonly supports people who want a clearer plan for exercise. Some patients are just getting started. Others may have been inactive for a while, or they might be coming back after injury or a health change. In many cases, the appointment starts with a physical activity assessment, so the plan matches where you are right now.
From there, he works on exercise program development. The program is usually practical, and it’s built around your routine, your preferences, and what you can manage without burning out. You’re not left guessing. Owen also provides guidance for strength training, which can be especially helpful when people feel unsure about what exercises to do and how often to do them.
Cardiovascular fitness testing is also part of his work. This helps check how your heart and lungs cope with exercise, and it can guide the next steps. If you’re managing symptoms or health concerns, the emphasis is on steady progress and sensible pacing, rather than pushing too hard too soon.
Owen’s style is calm and down to earth. He knows that exercise isn’t the same for everyone. Lifestyle matters. Time matters. Injuries and day-to-day stress matter too. Over time, small changes can add up, and the plan aims to make that happen.
When you meet Owen, you can expect conversations about your current activity levels, what feels hard, and what you’d like to improve. He then helps turn that into a clear set of goals, with steps you can actually follow. It’s not about perfection. It’s about getting moving in a way that works for you.
