Melissa graduated from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours). Growing up playing basketball and touch football for Tasmania, she developed an interest in physiotherapy after facing many of her own musculoskeletal injuries.

Melissa is passionate about working alongside others to help them achieve their goals and return to activities they love. She has particular interest in the rehabilitation of sporting injuries, post-surgical orthopaedic and lower limb conditions.

Melissa has experience working in a variety of roles with both semi-professional and professional sporting teams, including the Roar A-League Women’s and Brisbane Lions men’s and women’s academy teams.

Outside the clinic, she enjoys camping, playing sports and exploring the outdoors.
