Meet Tom
My passion for anatomy and personal experience with injuries led me to complete a Masters of Physiotherapy at The University of Queensland.
I struggled with injuries as a teenager... It continuously stopped me from playing the sports I loved, like tennis and field hockey, but also running around with my mates. So at 16 years of age, I decided I would become a Physiotherapist and help other athletes avoid my mistakes.
Since graduating, I've worked with State field hockey teams, VFL, and AFLW athletes, and I've been a swimming coach for 10 years. My mission is to help amateur athletes and people from all walks of life recover from injury, manage pain, and stay active. I believe in open, honest care that empowers you to take control of your health.
F.A.Q.
If your question isn't on this list, call us on 0480 714 134 and we will assist you with any queries!
Telehealth can be for anyone and everyone. Your Physiotherapist will take the time required to take a detailed history and assessment before giving you a treatment plan and it is just as effective as visiting in person. If you have any concerns, please give the clinic a call on 0480 714 134 and we will assist you further.
If you have any medical forms/letters, medical imaging reports or referrals /paperwork, please send them to our email (thegrassrootsphysio@gmail.com). You will also need a Laptop or Desktop screen and zoom installed so we can make a secure video call and watch you do some movements during the assessment.
Initial appointments are an hour long (60 minutes) and Follow-Up appointments take 45 minutes.
We run a strict 24hour Cancellation Policy and require rescheduling or cancellation notice at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. This allows your appointment slot to be given to someone else. If you cancel within 24 hours, you may be charged a 50% cancellation fee.
The rehab programs are designed for injured athletes and others who can’t make an appointment each week but still want a high quality injury rehab service. They are designed around your concerns and your needs and will incorporate an online exercise program, email/SMS check-ups/updates and online coaching via zoom calls.
