Huxley Physiotherapy

Hey, I'm Lara 👋

I became a physio because I loved learning about the human body and mind, and I wanted to help people feel stronger and more in control of their bodies. What really excited me was that physiotherapy isn’t one path — it’s many. I could keep learning, connect with people every day, and make a real difference.

I started my career in the UK’s NHS, where I worked across everything from neurological rehab and post-surgical care to sports injuries. But over time, the pace of the system made it harder to connect with people. Appointments were rushed. I couldn’t give the level of care I knew people deserved.

That’s what drives me now — providing a high-quality, personal experience that goes far beyond the bare minimum.

After moving to Australia for the lifestyle and opportunities, I saw how many people were struggling to access clinic-based physio. They couldn’t get to appointments — and I thought, "Why not bring the care to them?" I knew I had the experience to offer something different, something better: real support, in real environments, with no corners cut.

Now, I get to work with motivated, open-minded people who have goals and just need the right plan — and the right person — to help them get there. I bring everything needed for your session, and I build a structured, goal-driven program around your life — not the other way around.

Clients often tell me they feel at ease with me straight away. I believe that strong relationships are the foundation of great rehab. I’ll meet you where you’re at — and help you get where you want to be.
