Exercise Physiology - Strength & Conditioning-Based Rehabilitation for Injuries

As an experienced Exercise Physiologist, I offer strength and conditioning-based rehabilitation tailored to individuals dealing with both chronic and acute injuries. Whether you're recovering from an overuse injury related to cycling or managing a post-fall injury, I provide a personalised approach to your rehabilitation.

I specialise in helping cyclists recover from:

Cycling-related overuse injuries
Post-fall injury rehabilitation and management
Injury prevention and strengthening to avoid future setbacks

My rehabilitation programs integrate strength training, mobility work, and functional movement to ensure a comprehensive approach to recovery. Each program is customized to your specific injury, fitness level, and cycling goals, helping you return to the bike safely and effectively.

If you are experiencing pain, injury, or discomfort from a past or recent cycling incident, I encourage you to reach out for a consultation. Together, we’ll design a rehabilitation plan that supports your recovery and gets you back to your best performance.
