​

My approach goes beyond short-term symptom relief. Depending on your situation, that might mean identifying relevant contributors and helping reduce the chance of recurrence, or better understanding and managing pain that has become persistent. Either way, the aim is longer-lasting improvement, not an ongoing cycle of treatment.

​

Sessions combine science-informed manual therapy with condition-specific rehabilitation support, including exercise guidance and practical pain education where appropriate. The aim is to help you feel more confident between sessions and less reliant on ongoing treatment over time.

​

​I work with people experiencing pain and movement-related problems linked with everyday factors such as work demands, sport, stress, posture, lifestyle and movement habits. If you've been dealing with something that keeps coming back, or want a more thorough approach to understanding and managing the relevant contributors, that's exactly where I focus.​

​

​My background spans over 15 years of clinical practice, beginning in fitness before transitioning to massage therapy in 2008. That foundation in exercise and movement continues to inform how I assess and treat. I’m as interested in how you move as where it hurts.​

​

​I am currently completing a Master of Science in Medicine (Pain Management) at the University of Sydney, a two-year postgraduate program that has deepened my understanding of acute and chronic pain mechanisms and evidence-informed pain management strategies. This training informs my clinical approach, particularly with clients experiencing persistent or recurring pain.​
