⭐️⭐️⭐️Introducing Emily Kerwin ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Emily Kerwin is a paediatric physiotherapist who combines clinical expertise with creativity and compassion to support children in reaching their movement potential. Her approach is evidence-based, play-focused, and deeply individualised—because every child’s journey is different, and every step forward matters. Emily believes in creating a supportive, collaborative environment for families, with therapy that’s as joyful as it is effective. Emily graduated from the University of Queensland in 2016 with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (First Class Honours). Since 2017, she has worked primarily in paediatrics across private clinics, non-profit organisations, and multidisciplinary community teams.
With a strong foundation in functional physiotherapy, Emily has extensive experience across:
Play-based and goal-oriented therapy
Hydrotherapy
Equipment prescription, including seating, wheelchairs, and orthotics
Family education and support—empowering caregivers with tools and knowledge
She has a particular interest in early intervention and loves working with children who have:
Developmental delays
Neurological conditions (e.g., cerebral palsy)
Hypermobility
Neuromuscular conditions
Her mantra—every child should have access to movement—drives her passion for breaking down barriers and helping children thrive. She finds deep satisfaction in helping children achieve milestones that open up new opportunities for participation, independence, and joy.
Outside of work, you’ll find Emily exploring local parks with her daughter, heading out on family hikes (with the border collie in tow), or on the hunt for Brisbane’s best coffee.
Emily will be at Watersprings Health Centre every Tuesday starting on the 20th of May. To book your child in with Emily, please call 0494 094 234 or check out her website www.nuturemovement.com.au
