Book with Sally

Hi I’m Sally, I have recently relocated back to my home town of Wagga, after working as a Physiotherapist in Bowral, in the Southern Highlands, NSW. I have always worked in paediatrics, and am passionate about working with children and adolescents, to help them move, play and grow. My experience includes working with children from birth to 18 years of age, with a range of conditions including, growth related and sporting injuries, gross motor milestone achievement, hypermobility, physical disability including Cerebral Palsy, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and Arthrogryposis, and orthopedic birth-related conditions. I am currently completing the Master of Advanced Paediatric Physiotherapy Practice through Monash University to expand my knowledge around all things paediatric physio! 

I am passionate about working with young dancers and performing pre-pointe assessments. With over 20 years of dance experience, I know the importance of looking after developing bodies for this demanding sport. When not at work, you’ll find me playing netball, soccer, or touch football, and spending time with my Golden Retriever Maisie.
