About Me

I graduated with a Doctor of Physiotherapy from the University of Melbourne, and worked in a private practice in Sydney, before moving back home to Melbourne to further my skills as a Pelvic Health Physiotherapist. I have undertaken further training in Dry Needling and Pelvic Health, and am a Certified APPI Equipment Pilates Instructor.                          

In my high school years, I spent several years as a dancer, as well as competing at a national level in Sport Aerobics. In 2021 I discovered my true passion for performance when I began training in Aerial Silks. What began as a hobby has since grown into a passion, and I now perform and compete on both Aerial Silks and Straps. With a deep understanding of the physical demands of Aerial Arts, particularly on the pelvic floor, I aim to provide targeted, holistic, and empathetic care, to help my clients return to what they love.

For the last few years I have been working primarily as a Pelvic Health Physiotherapist, including working with pre and postnatal women, and individuals of any gender with continence issues, bladder or bowel concerns, pelvic pain, pelvic organ prolapse, and pre- and post- gynaecological or urological surgery rehabilitation. I am particularly interested in helping artists return to performance postpartum, by utilising my knowledge and experience in Aerial Arts to help develop effective return to performance programs.

This year, I have also working as a physio at NICA (National Institute of Circus Arts), helping manage musculoskeletal injuries, and screening for pelvic health concerns in the Bachelor of Circus Arts and Certificate IV in Circus Arts students!

I strive to get to know my clients, and bring an element of empathy and compassion to my care. I believe that exercise rehabilitation is pivotal to help improve both physical and mental health, and promote long-term recovery. I have an integrated, evidence-based approach to treatment, which combines manual therapy techniques and exercise therapy including clinical pilates, to ensure my clients achieve optimal outcomes.

Outside of work, I enjoy walking my cavoodle Charlie, home movie nights with my husband, and spending time up in the air training for Aerial performances!
