Elly graduated from RMIT University with a Bachelor of Health Science and a Bachelor of Applied Science (Osteopathy).

This inspired her to pursue a career dedicated to helping others achieve optimal health and recovery.

As an osteopath, Elly takes a holistic and patient-centered approach, focusing on each patient’s individual goals and capabilities. As a certified Pilates instructor holding a Cert IV in reformer and matwork, she integrates Pilates into her clinical practice, believing it to be an excellent pairing to hands-on osteopathic treatment. By combining movement-based rehabilitation with manual therapy, she empowers her patients to thrive and live pain-free lives.

A structural practitioner at heart, Elly is passionate about treating a wide range of conditions, from pregnancy-related discomfort and sports injuries to general aches and pain.

Radial Shockwave Therapy employs high-pressure acoustic shockwaves that travel through the skin to target and break down specific tissue, stimulating tissue repair in the process. This treatment produces an inflammatory response, kickstarting your body’s natural healing mechanisms.

SWIFT therapySWIFT Microwave Wart Therapy is a pioneering treatment that is exclusive to the podiatry profession and provides a precise, efficient and effective way of safely treating verruca lesions on both upper and lower limbs. This treatment is of minimal fuss and allows local precision without damaging healthy tissue. There are many benefits to the patient, including no dressings or change in activities, significant pain reduction and improved overall comfort post-treatment. SWIFT has a number of proposed effects, including the ability to facilitate the immune response to recognise Human Papillomavirus. This is achieved by transforming virally infected cells into a state of stress by heating the tissue to 42-45 degrees. This hyperthermic range causes the release of the ‘danger signalling’ heat shock proteins from virally infected cells, which includes the maturation of Langerhan’s cells and enhances their migration to the lymph nodes. Cytotoxic T-cells migrate to the epidermis and begin to destroy all virally infected cells (Bristow et al, 2007).
