Physiotherapy at home and in the clinic
I work with people living with neurological conditions, people recovering from surgery, older adults who want to stay strong and steady on their feet, and anyone whose pain has been around too long. Most of my work happens in people's homes across the Sunshine Coast. On Mondays I'm at the clinic in Peregian Beach.
Where we work
In your home, or at the clinic
Home visits
Sixty minutes in your own home. Rehabilitation counts most where you actually live: your stairs, your shower, your garden path.

Where everyone starts
The Full Picture Assessment
Sixty minutes, at home or in the clinic. It's the first appointment for every new client, whatever brings you in.
- 1Your story. What has happened, what is hard now, and what you want to get back to.
- 2A full physiotherapy examination. Strength, movement and joints.
- 3Detailed testing of sensation, joint position sense, balance and movement control.
- 4Everyday movement. Walking, getting up and down, and stairs, in your own setting when we're at your home.
- 5What I found, in plain English, and a written plan to take away.
After the assessment
Most people go on to regular follow-up sessions. How many depends on what I find and on your goals, and you'll always know the plan and the reason for it.
If you're funded through Support at Home or the NDIS, I send a report to your provider or support coordinator. With your permission, I'll also keep your GP up to date.
What I work with
Conditions and goals
Neurological conditions
Stroke, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis, peripheral neuropathy and other conditions that affect movement and sensation. Rehabilitation for walking, balance, arm and hand use, and everyday tasks.
Balance and falls
Strength and balance work for people who feel unsteady or have had a fall, with practical changes at home that make moving around easier.
After surgery
Hip and knee replacements, shoulder surgery and spinal surgery. A progressive plan from the first weeks at home to getting back to your usual activities.
Long-standing pain
Back, neck and joint pain that has gone on for months. A clear explanation of what I find, a plan you understand, and exercise that builds week by week.
Sport and active people
Strength and return-to-sport programmes for athletes and active people, planned around your training and competition.
Also available
Equipment, reports and support for the people around you
Assistive technology
