Meet Mel

Hi I'm Mel, a born and bred local Physiotherapist who completed a Masters of Physiotherapy at Flinders University in Adelaide. 

 

With experience in both private practice and acute hospital, I developed a keen interest in womens health and am passionate about assisting women in their rehabilitation post-birth as well as treating pregnancy/postnatal-related pain.

I enjoy working with pre & post natal mums, helping them build strength during pregnancy and post birth, as well as assisting with conditions such as abdominal separation, pelvic floor weakness, pelvic girdle pain, and pregnancy-related pain.

​

I consider myself a movement based therapist, but use a combination of Pilates & strength together with manual therapy, dry needling, and education to successfully treat pain and discomfort. I love how Pilates can have such a positive impact in changing and improving movement patterns, and allow people to connect their mind and body to create a strong body awareness. 

​

In my spare time I love spending time with my husband Callum and son Max on our farm, moving my body through pilates and crossfit, and building our homestead and veggie garden.
