This diversity has given Ellen a well-rounded understanding of how to support clients from all walks of life—whether they’re elite athletes, older adults, or individuals facing long-term health challenges.

Ellen offers a wide range of physiotherapy treatments, carefully tailored to meet the individual needs of each client. Her approach combines clinical expertise with empathy, ensuring each session is both effective and supportive.
Sports and Orthopaedic Rehabilitation
Ellen has experience treating professional athletes, including those from the Cairns Taipans basketball team. She creates structured rehabilitation plans designed to restore strength, improve performance, and prevent further injury. These programmes are equally beneficial for anyone recovering from musculoskeletal issues or post-surgical procedures.
Manual Therapy and Dry Needling
To assist with pain relief and mobility, Ellen uses hands-on manual therapy techniques and dry needling. These treatments are particularly helpful for tight muscles, joint dysfunction, and injury-related pain.
Vestibular Physiotherapy
Ellen provides treatment for conditions such as BPPV (benign paroxysmal positional vertigo) and vestibular neuritis. These therapies help reduce dizziness, improve balance, and restore confidence in movement.
Neurological and Aged Care Support
With a background in neurological rehabilitation and aged care, Ellen offers therapy for conditions like stroke, Parkinson’s disease, and age-related decline. Her focus is on enhancing function and promoting independence through customised treatment plans.
