Penny graduated from her Degree in Human Movement in 1993 and then went on to complete a Graduate Diploma in Exercise for Rehabilitation in 1994. This lead to a keen interest in the treatment and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries, including sporting injuries. Penny then went on to complete Osteopathy in 2000.
The combination of Human Movement, Exercise Rehabilitation and Osteopathy has been the focus of Parkmore Osteopathy, where all treatments involve diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation to prevent further injuries.
Penny trains and competes in fun runs, open water swims and triathlons herself, which adds to a personal interest in dealing with the injuries that can occur from these sports.
Penny is a member of Osteopathy Australia.
At the clinic
“I was just bending over to pull up my jeans when I felt a sudden sharp pain in my back.”
“It’s just a constant dull ache across my forehead by the end of the day.”
“I get a burning pain from my shoulder and down into my upper arm when I use the arm.”
“I sprained my ankle three months ago and it just hasn’t healed that well.”
“The pain in my knee comes on about ten minutes into my run and just get progressively worse.”
Sound familiar? These are examples of the stories we hear every day at the clinic. These are also the types of people we help every day.
