Deb studied Physiotherapy at the University of Sydney and has been in private practice on the Northern Beaches for over 15 years. Deb’s love for movement and the body started in her teens as a full-time dance student in Sydney and then in Melbourne with the Australian Ballet School. Deb picked up her dance shoes again a few years back and is still dancing nationally and internationally in Lyrical and Jazz.

Deb has completed many post-grad courses, however the ConnectTherapy™ approach by Dr LJ Lee re-shaped the way she sees the body. In this approach, finding the driver of the non-optimal movement and pain is most important. Treatment is shaped on restoring this function and re-training. She has a passion for all injuries and sports but a specific love of dance and gymnastics. Deb loves working with these patients and their unique needs. Deb can do pre-pointe ballet assessments for young dancers thinking about starting pointe work.

Deb is also a Pilates Practitioner and teaches on the Polestar Rehab Education courses in Australia.
