How AJ Works

AJ’s approach begins with listening carefully to your story and assessing more than just the area that hurts – Pain and recurring injuries are often influenced by the way different parts of the body move together, as well as previous injuries, surgery, posture, activity levels, stress and long-held movement habits.

Treatment usually combines hands-on physiotherapy with movement retraining and a targeted exercise program. When appropriate, AJ may also incorporate elements of yoga therapy, breathing and body awareness to reduce unnecessary tension, improve movement quality and help your body feel safer and more confident in movement.

The immediate aim is to ease pain and stiffness and help you move more comfortably. Just as importantly, AJ looks for the factors that may be contributing to the problem or causing it to return. You will work together to develop a practical plan that supports lasting change, builds strength and confidence, and helps you return to the activities that matter to you.

This approach can be particularly helpful if you have accumulated injuries over many years, are recovering from surgery, keep getting hurt when you try to exercise, or have reached a stage of life when you want to rebuild your fitness and look after your body properly.

AJ is an APA Titled Sports and Exercise Physiotherapist and a Member of the Australian College of Physiotherapists, with more than 30 years of clinical experience. Earlier in her career, she worked with the Australian Freestyle Ski Team on the World Cup circuit. Her own experience of knee surgeries and a knee replacement has also given her a personal understanding of the challenges involved in staying active as the body changes.

AJ’s goal is not simply to give you exercises or provide a temporary treatment. It is to help you better understand your body, move with greater ease and develop the confidence to manage your health and remain active over the long term.
