Samantha graduated from La Trobe University in 1994 with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy. Samantha is the Director and Practice Principal of Whittlesea Physiotherapy and Clinical Pilates, having established the practice in 2005 with the goal of providing the community with best practice manual therapy, education and exercise prescription so clients can get back to doing what they love.
Samantha is passionate about inspiring and assisting the community to improve their health, fitness and wellbeing and loves helping clients achieve their goals whilst feeling supported and confident. Sam believes working collaboratively with clients and other members of their healthcare team to develop an individualised treatment plan using a holistic approach gets the best possible results.
Samantha has experience and skills in a variety of settings and has a special interest in the areas of acute and chronic concussion management (Whittlesea Physiotherapy and Clinical Pilates is a certified Complete Concussion Management Clinic), Temporomandibular Dysfunction (jaw), sports injuries and Gluteal tendinopathy/hip bursitis.
Outside of work you will find Samantha doing anything outdoors (when she is not reading)! She enjoys taking her dogs for a run, stand up paddle boarding, snowboarding or helping out when her sons play footy.
I have always had a very good service from the Physiotherapist Sam and I have already recommended her to several people.
Because I have been using the service for 12 plus years and wouldn’t go anywhere else as the service and care is the best I have found.
