Having experienced chronic pain related to spinal fractures many years ago, Clara is keenly aware of how debilitating and complex pain and dysfunction can be. She recognises that a holistic approach, as embodied in osteopathy, is key to enabling healing and optimising health.

 

Clara seeks to empower patients through her own lived experience and through education to live healthier, more active lives. Using a patient centred approach, she draws on a variety of manual therapy techniques including soft-tissue massage, joint mobilisation and manipulation, as well as gentler styles of treatment such as cranial-sacral therapy.

 

Since earning her Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Science and Master’s of Osteopathic Medicine at Southern Cross University, Clara has completed further training in paediatric osteopathy, prenatal and postnatal osteopathic care, visceral and cranial osteopathy, and injury management. Clara is an accredited Pilates and yoga teacher and regularly incorporates exercise rehabilitation into her consults.
