🌍 World Physiotherapy Day – 8th September 🌍

Today we celebrate the role of physiotherapy in building stronger, healthier communities – and we’re especially proud to highlight our very own physiotherapists:

✨ Annabel – With a background in dance and massage, Annabel has developed a special interest in hypermobility and working with complex cases. She’s passionate about supporting dancers, performers, and anyone managing long-term conditions to move with strength and confidence.

✨ Jeremy – Jeremy brings a steady, practical approach to physiotherapy, focusing on recovery, rehabilitation, and prevention. He works with clients of all ages, helping them return to the things they love – whether that’s sport, daily life, or simply moving without pain.

Together, Annabel and Jeremy embody what physiotherapy is all about: hands-on expertise, evidence-based care, and empowering clients to thrive through movement.

💙 This World Physio Day, we thank them – and physios everywhere – for the incredible work they do.

Renata will be introducing our new Form & Flow classes, blending her dance background, movement expertise, and a focus on mind–body connection. These classes will bring something fresh and exciting to our studio.

On Friday I had a great time providing First Aid again at our local school Athletics Carnival. The location was awesome and the carnival was so well organised...thanks BPS staff!

On a personal note it was great to see how successful injury management with a physio can be! My son injured a growth plate in his foot over the winter, and our sports physio Jeremy helped him with it. He was even able to keep attending Jeremy's 'Power Up' class while in a boot. In his first Athletics comp injury-free he managed to do really well and feel super strong!

Meet Annabel — Our Owner, Principal Physiotherapist & Movement Specialist

Annabel is the heart and grounding force of our clinic. With a professional background in dance and massage therapy, she brings a holistic and highly attuned approach to physiotherapy.

She’s especially passionate about working with:
✔️ People with hypermobility
✔️ Dancers and performing artists
✔️ Clients with more complex or chronic conditions

Annabel has pursued additional training in hypermobility and approaches all care with a trauma-informed, person-first lens. Her clinical curiosity and movement experience allow her to uncover what others may miss.

📌 Due to the high demand on her time, Annabel is not taking new physio clients—except for those who fall within her special interest areas: hypermobility or dance.

She also runs Clinical Pilates classes a few times a week, which are often booked out by long-time regulars. If you’re interested in joining or if you’d love to see more of these classes on the timetable, let us know—we’re always open to growing what our community needs.

💛 Annabel embodies what our studio is all about: individualised care, movement for life, and a deep respect for each person’s story.
