I have been seeing Kerry for approximately 1.5 years. She is a very knowledgeable, experienced, caring and professional practitioner. Initially I was seeking treatment for ongoing lower back tightness and pain. Within a couple of months my condition improved significantly - essentially I was not feeling the discomfortable on a regular basis. This was due largely to her treatment of my condition (soft tissue massage and stretches). Kerry took the time to explain the causes of my lower back pain; more importantly the exercises that I needed to do at home and prior to me exercising to minimise and prevent tightness.

More recently (since January 2014) Kerry has provided intensive treatment for a Grade 3 ankle sprain. She has been instrumental in ensuring that I received the right information, the correct treatment and the most appropriate rehabilitation exercises so I could recover from my injury. This was extremely important to me as I had set a goal to complete a full marathon in October.

Kerry was extremely supportive throughout the whole period. The recovery process was quite challenging at times, particularly regaining my confidence to do plyometric exercises with Kerry and my personal trainer. I was able to overcome my fear because Kerry was successful in explaining to me the recovery process, including the time it would be required to strengthen my right ankle. I had complete trust in Kerry's advice and undertook all the rehabilitation exercises on a daily basis - in fact twice a day. I completed the Melbourne Marathon in October 2014; I know Kerry played a significant role in assisting me to achieve my personal goal. I strongly recommend Kerry to anyone that needs an excellent osteopath. Janet Lui
