Being in pain is already miserable enough… rehab shouldn’t be. # How do you help patients achieve their goals? Tailoring everyone’s journey to suit them to get the max results. Adjusting styles of treatment when needed and celebrating the small victories to get to the finish line. Setting realistic expectations from the beginning and sticking to them! # What do you like to do outside of physiotherapy?  Being active, play netball or hockey, get involved in some horse event, travel and explore. # Do you have any hobbies or interests that relate to physiotherapy?  Netball, hockey, horse riding, running, endurance training programs # Do you have a favourite quote or piece of advice for potential patients?

Favourite quote: “Believe me, the reward is not so great without the struggle” – Wilma Rudolph “The harder you work, the luckier you get” – Gary Player # What's one surprising fact about the human body that most people don't know? When you run, 3x your body weight goes through your legs, when you walk, only a third goes through a leg. # What's the most creative excuse you've heard from a patient to avoid doing their exercises?  My dog ate my exercises – followed by a picture of a dog eating an exercise sheet # If you could give one piece of advice to a household item to prevent injury, what would it be?  I tell a lot of my patients that they are as stiff as a broom/plank. For a stiff back, doing a roll down like a human Swiss-roll cake works to relief tension in the back.
