Hey, I'm Lara 👋

I became a physiotherapist because I’ve always loved learning about the body and how movement can improve the way we feel. For me, it’s not just about treating injuries; it’s about helping people feel stronger, more confident, and more independent in their daily lives.

I started my career in the UK’s NHS, working across post-surgical recovery, sports injuries, and neurological rehab. I found I enjoyed taking the time to really understand people and support them properly. Since moving to the Gold Coast, I’ve focused on bringing physiotherapy directly to people, whether that’s at home, in the pool, or in the gym — wherever it works best for them.

I really enjoy getting to know the people I work with and helping them reach their goals, whether it’s getting back to sport, moving more comfortably, or just feeling a bit stronger in everyday life.
