My Story
Hi, I’m Sally
I am passionate about exploring your relationship with exercise and movement in a safe and non-judgemental manner. I take the time to listen to your story to connect with all aspects of your health – social, emotional, and physical. Understanding what matters to you, is vital in providing holistic, patient-centred care and therefore my appointments are longer than other physio practices. I believe our physical and mental health are linked, which is why I look at all aspects of someone’s health, not just the physical.
How I can help you:
- Specialist assessment, advice, education, and management of the various physical and psychological components of an eating disorder related to movement
- Help guide safe exercise at all stages of recovery to improve co-occurring physical and psychological symptoms such as anxiety, depression, loss of muscle mass, body image issues, and sleep disturbances
- Provide specific recommendations on beginning or continuing movement/exercise, based on an assessment of both medical status and psychological wellbeing
- Provide and modify movement/exercise plans for individuals with low body weight or higher body weight
- Help transition from a dysfunctional relationship with exercise and build skills in mindful and intuitive movement
- Assess the medical risk associated with compulsive and dysfunctional exercise behaviours including osteoporosis and osteopenia
- Explore issues surrounding body image concerns with the intention of promoting the development of a positive and more realistic body image
- In-session movement therapy including mat/seated work e.g., yoga, Pilates, strength training
- Assess and diagnose musculoskeletal conditions, and use physiotherapy techniques in your management plan, including acupuncture and dry needling, soft tissue mobilisation, exercise therapy and muscle re-education and motor control training
