Physiotherapist | APA Member

Pat is a Senior Physiotherapist who started In Focus Physiotherapy in 2023 with a vision to provide the best patient-centred physiotherapy service.

Fascinated by a person’s biomechanics and having the continuity of care to help patients achieve their goals, she found private-practice the best fit for her. To ensure that an evidence-based practice model is used, Pat keeps up to date by immersing herself in recent literature and listening to leaders in the field.

Her sporting background consists of Martial Arts for 15 years, achieving a black belt level and instructed group classes. Pat was a swimming instructor throughout her University Degree and has completed a 50km Ultra-Marathon. As a long-distance runner herself, she has a special interest in running-related injuries and training load management.

She has also completed further studies in the assessment and treatment of Vestibular Conditions (i.e. dizziness/vertigo). This was a niche area that she became interested in the early years of completing her physiotherapy degree. To date, she continues to treat these conditions with great success.

Outside of the clinic, you would find her training for her next marathon or out at a restaurant or café with friends and family.

“I believe that it is imperative to encapsulate an individual from a holistic perspective, which includes biomechanical, physiological and psychological aspects to achieve the best results.”
