About Us

As a young competitive athlete I was fortunate to have the support of my grandfather, Jim. He took me to training, watched all my races and always believed in me. A couple of years ago he confided in me that one of his biggest regrets in life was not being able to visit the family tree he had planted in 1999. I knew it was time to return all of the support my grandpa had given me over the years and help him to achieve this goal. The only problem was, Grandpa Jim's mobility was poor, he hardly ever left the house and if he did, needed a wheelchair, and the family tree was planted on a mountainside with a steep, rocky, uneven path leading up to it (a 1km hike with 50m ascent). I used my knowledge and skills as a physiotherapist and my experience as an athlete to rehabilitate, train and motivate my grandfather (who had given up all hope of seeing the family tree). I saw him go from patient to athlete, and a few months later he independently hiked the path to the tree and was able to see it one last time. 

​

Sadly, my grandpa Jim died in 2021 of Covid-19. His legacy is what inspired me to set up my own practice, where people have the opportunity to dream big. In addition to rehabilitating clients, reducing the burden of pain, and improving everyday function and mobility, GM Physiotherapy is a place to dream big and reach for goals you never thought possible. Whether your big goal is getting out of the house, reducing pain medication use, walking on the beach, or becoming a competitive sportsperson; at GM Physiotherapy we know anything is possible and we want to help you get there. 

​

We offer appointments in your home, our home based clinic, at the beach, on the track, or wherever your big dreams can become reality.
