Hello!
​Hi, I’m Roslyn!
​
I'm a Mackay girl who moved to Sydney to dance : (Cert IV Performing Arts - Brent St Studios, and Diploma of Classical Ballet ARAD)
and study at The University of Sydney (B.AppSc (Physiotherapy) 2015).
With my dance / pilates background and over 8 years of experience as a Physiotherapist I aim for thorough analysis of movement and striving for quality alignment and movement.
​
I moved back to Mackay to work at Mackay Base Hospital,
and have gained experience across multiple areas of Physiotherapy,
including senior and extensive experience in Paediatric Physiotherapy.
​
I have learnt from a plethora of advanced therapists and consultants from around the country, including Melbourne and Brisbane.
I fell in love with Paediatrics while at Sydney Children’s Hospital.
I have trained predominantly in Paediatric physiotherapy: my clinical passion.
I have extensive post-graduate training in Paediatric Physiotherapy.
Having worked in senior roles regionally has given me a variety of experience to treat a range of conditions including complex respiratory, neurodegenerative, palliative and neurological conditions.
​
I have co-authored a published research systematic review on
"The Effectiveness of Dance Interventions on Physical Health Outcomes Compared to Other Forms of Physical Activity: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. (2018)"
This paper has been presented internationally.
I love working with families and the inter-disciplinary team.
I take a holistic, fun and strengths based approach.
I am an optimistic and positive person;
I value seeing each child with all the potential to live a full life that is important to them and your family.
​
My role is to help you achieve what is important to you and your family and feel empowered and confident.
I value the importance of the family unit and have seen so many times how parents are the expert of their child.
As a mum of two young children, I understand how busy life is and believe that my role as a physiotherapist is to work with your family unit in coaching and guiding therapy as an every day part of your family life.
