Lucy has been practicing Women’s Physiotherapy for 17 years and has a strong sense of compassion for and gains enjoyment from helping women through all life stages.
Prior to Physiotherapy, Lucy studied Psychology and Human Movement and then worked in the fields of Health Promotion, Human Resource Management and Injury Management before returning to study Physiotherapy which she completed in 2003. Initially working as a Musculoskeletal Therapist as well as doing Exercise Rehab with Seniors, she was introduced to Women’s Health shortly after the birth of her first baby. Since then she has worked extensively in both inpatient and outpatient settings. In 2015 Lucy completed postgraduate courses in Women’s Health and she continues to actively participate in professional development. She has clinical experience treating a range of conditions including all antenatal and postnatal, pelvic organ prolapse, pelvic pain, sexual pain, and bladder and bowel conditions. Lucy loves helping women return to exercise after baby!
When relaxing Lucy enjoys playing floorball, running, extend barre and pilates, walking her dog, reading and spending time with her family and friends.
