Welcome to Fitness Fx Pty Ltd. If you are reading this page you have more than likely been referred to me by your specialist, your G.P. or a friend/family member who has experienced their own personal success as a patient here. You can read about others success under the case studies headings.  Fitness Fx began in 1997 while I was completing my Masters Degree in a small studio in Clayfield and grew to five studios with 17 staff!

Many years ago I worked with professional athletes at the Queensland Academy of Sport and during my Masters studies I focused on special populations which required a high degree of understanding of the disease processes which can afflict people throughout their lives. I studied cardiac rehabilitation and worked closely with morbidly obese patients undergoing lap banding operations at the Wesley Hospital in Brisbane. I decided to focus my career on “normal people” who wanted to improve themselves and prevent disease. I took the scientific and detailed training regimes for athletes and applied them to the everyday person to help them achieve their own optimal performance at the level that they wished to achieve. I included in these programs the preventative measures needed to provide my client with the best health insurance against disease and slowed their individual aging process through the methods I used.

I continued my studies in manual therapy, as it became very apparent to me that some people were unable to perform parts of my programs due to injuries which had not been adequately rehabilitated by others. I became very passionate with my holistic approach to healthcare and researched, completed further studies and attended many conferences and workshops on musculoskeletal rehabilitation. Many years ago, I was involved in a motor vehicle accident which left me with one prolapsed disc and another herniated disc in the cervical spine. The prolapsed disc was protruded so far that the neurosurgeon said it was placing pressure on my spinal cord and causing it to swell. Surgery was certainly recommended however I did not choose to go down this path. I have experienced the pain this injury causes and understand personally how chronic pain affects your whole life. Through this experience,
I was able to design a unique way of releasing the body which permanently releases pain and dysfunction. I have replicated this success with thousands of patients over the last 18 years of clinical practice. Please visit the case studies
section to view a handful of these results.
