Sports Physio Vs Exercise Physiologist

Can anyone tell me what the difference between these two are? Thx in advance

Ok well both professions undertake different courses at university.

Physio - they essentially diagnose and treat injuries.

EP - basically match the immediate aspirations and needs of the client with appropriate exercise interventions, and developing strategies to acheive the goal. eg, someone might want to lose weight, from there the EP will design a programme that will help acheive the goal of the client.
