Profile:

Josh is an enthusiastic remedial therapist who utilises a range of techniques to treat not only sport-related injuries, but also a wide range of musculo-skeletal conditions. He is passionate about implementing corrective strategies and exercises tailored to the client’s needs and that look to address the issue at hand, rather than provide temporary relief. He achieves this through the use of in-depth analysis of movement range, as well as orthopaedic testing, which allows for an understanding of the cause of the client’s issue. He enjoys implementing a variety of techniques in his treatments, such as direct soft tissue application, trigger point therapy, myofascial cupping and muscle energy techniques.

Josh has worked in various settings and locations, such as being the lead therapist for a busy Personal Training studio and Sports Medicine clinical environment. Josh has also had experience doing soft tissue work for elite level sporting clubs like Melbourne Victory FC and currently the Melbourne Rebels.
