Chris brings more than 10 years of private practice experience and holds a Master of Physiotherapy from Curtin University and a Bachelor of Science (Anatomical Sciences) from the University of Western Australia. He is registered with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) and is an active member of the Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA), including the Musculoskeletal, Sports & Exercise and Aquatic Physiotherapy groups.

Before entering private practice, Chris taught human anatomy in the University of Western Australia wet laboratories, developing a strong foundation in anatomy, biomechanics and movement analysis that continues to inform his clinical reasoning and treatment planning today. He has also worked with a range of local AFL, soccer and cricket clubs, providing practical experience in sports injury management, rehabilitation and return-to-sport planning.

Chris has undertaken extensive post-graduate training in sports injury rehabilitation, dry needling, hydrotherapy and aquatic physiotherapy, vestibular rehabilitation, TMJ and jaw pain management, balance and falls prevention, and post-operative rehabilitation. He regularly participates in professional development to ensure his treatment approaches remain evidence-based and aligned with current best practice.

A particular area of interest is rehabilitation following orthopaedic surgery, including total knee replacement, total hip replacement, ACL reconstruction, shoulder surgery and spinal procedures. Chris has more than a decade of experience delivering physiotherapist-guided hydrotherapy and exercise rehabilitation programs and continues to incorporate both land-based and aquatic rehabilitation into comprehensive treatment plans where appropriate.

Known for his thorough assessments and clear communication style, Chris takes pride in providing easy-to-understand explanations of injuries, diagnoses and treatment options so patients feel informed and confident throughout their recovery. He believes that successful rehabilitation combines education, hands-on treatment where appropriate, and progressive exercise rehabilitation tailored to each person’s goals and lifestyle.
