What do you love most about your job?
I love seeing patients go from a place of struggling with a particular issue, to feeling relief and being more functional in daily life. I enjoy meeting new people, creating a great environment and using my skills to help others.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My profession allows me to work independently, and with other practitioners. I value a good referral system between practitioners to ensure the patient receives the best outcome. I love having a job that allows me to work around client's times, especially during this period of online sessions.
Why should our clients choose you?
I am passionate about my job, but more so my patients. I love taking a problem and working out a solution, no matter how many avenues we may have to try. I will always take pride in making sure I use all my tools to help a patient get better, and have a thorough approach to figuring out what could be causing issues.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
At the moment mostly remotely, I am in the process of changing practice locations.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Predominantly online sessions, once we commence in person sessions all sanitisation and mask precautions will be taken as per the governments guidelines.

Special Population and Chronic Condition Rehabilitation
Rehabilitation is an integral part of managing a chronic condition or specific health condition such as diabetes, dysautonomia, fibromyalgia etc.
This rehabilitation involves an in-depth assessment, rehabilitation and progression into daily life tasks.
