About Me
Physiotherapist who graduated in Australia in 1987 and by now am well seasoned in most aspects of practice. I worked in a tropical location in the Whitsundays when graduated at a rural hospital and private practice. I then went on to run a private practice Physiotherapy centre in a medical centre for 10 years a great interdisciplinary experience. Now I work in community physiotherapy in tropical Queensland Australia
I provide mobile physiotherapy services throughout the Noosa region, Queensland, delivering 30-minute home-based treatment sessions commencing at 7:30 am.
My caseload predominantly comprises elderly clients requiring support for independent living. Interventions include the Otago Exercise Program, individualized home exercise prescription, functional training (sit-to-stand transfers, gait re-education, postural correction), musculoskeletal management of osteoarthritic joints, and post-operative joint replacement rehabilitation. Clinical services extend to diabetes management through supervised exercise programs, mobility aid assessments, and postural evaluation including seating and sleeping ergonomics.
Neurological clients receive tailored exercise prescription, strengthening, and stretching protocols. Treatment incorporates manual therapy techniques informed by Maitland training principles across all patient populations.
Additional clinical areas include pediatric physiotherapy (cerebral palsy), dementia management, cardiovascular conditioning (atrial fibrillation), respiratory physiotherapy (COPD, active cycle of breathing techniques), oedema management, and Down syndrome rehabilitation.
Mobile practice necessitates clinical competence across diverse age groups, diagnostic categories, and treatment modalities.
