KNOWLEDGE, EXPERIENCE + PASSION
Three ingredients we consider essential for supporting our community. As a team we’ve made a conscious choice to specialise in working with invisible illnesses. We are tertiary-trained, and proudly integrate new science with old wisdom into our approach. We acknowledge that science is a moving frontier and are committed to furthering our understanding and sharing new discoveries with you along the way.
OUR SPACE IS YOUR SANCTUARY
Your care starts from the moment you walk in the door. Our aesthetic includes a colour palette of warm whites and neutrals with accents of green and black throughout. You’ll notice plenty of soft lighting, textured timbers and natural elements to bring an earthy feel to our space. And as far as space goes, we’ve planned for that too, so that you feel comfortable and at ease.
COLLABORATIVE CARE
We recognise the importance of a balanced, multidisciplinary team-based approach to caring for our community. We value communication not just within our own team but within your existing circle of care to ensure we are all on the same page and working together. Need some help to build your team? In many cases, we are able to make recommendations for other allied health and medical specialties.
TRAILBLAZING TRAUMA-INFORMED PHYSIOTHERAPY
Trauma is a fundamental human experience and we are sensitive to the needs of those who experience this in an ongoing way. We believe in seeking to understand your experience and take a non-pathologizing stance. We have carefully considered our space and offering to feel inclusive and nurturing for all, as well as complimenting psyche-based trauma therapies with our unique somatic approach.
WE SEE YOU…AS A WHOLE
To heal is to become whole and you are more than the sum of your parts or diagnoses. There is an intimacy in our work, as we endeavour to know you as a person – beautifully complex and capable of radical change – and we openly welcome and meaningfully integrate all parts of you.
TAILORED PLANS
No two Zebras have the same stripes, so why would our healthcare needs be the same? We take the necessary time to listen – to your story, your needs, your aspirations – before co-creating an individualised plan that provides a structured roadmap towards your wellbeing. Our plans are adaptable for when there’s a bump or fork in the road with our ultimate intention being to prepare you for what lies ahead and restore a sense of agency when it comes to your health.
