Spending a few years specialising in neurological rehabilitation, Margi decided to go completely out on her own and implement what she has learned, setting up and running a clinic that truly supports what she believes in.
Margi
Margi's love for rehabilitation came after competing during her teenage years at Elite Level Martial Arts and in numerous sports such as netball, soccer and athletics. After an injury crushed her hopes of competing at an international level, at the Olympics, rehabilitation became her passion.
With more than 9 years of experience, my passion is to help people manage their conditions, improve functionality and return to activities they love to do. I regard myself as a highly professional and well-balanced practitioner. With me you aren’t just another number, I listen to your concerns, but can be firm when needed.
Following the recommendations of specialists in I am always mindful of your limitations, while ensuring you get the most from my services.
After working in specialist disability services, I have continued to further my knowledge of neurological conditions along with musculoskeletal injury management. My process is to assess and get to know my patients overall in a holistic approach which assists me in designing exercises and programs to overcome and improve issues without aggravating your conditions.
