Eimear is from Ireland and recently moved to Sydney. She graduated from University College Dublin with an undergraduate degree in Physiotherapy in 2020. Following this she completed her masters in Sports and Exercise Medicine in Trinity College Dublin in 2021. She is also a qualified Pilates instructor and previously led classes for runners and for the older population.

Eimear has a keen interest in the area of musculoskeletal physiotherapy with a specific interest in female athletes. Her master’s thesis focused on relative energy deficiency in athletes, a condition that is prevalent in many young female athletes.

Eimear is an accomplished runner having previously captained and competed for her university athletes club in 2019-2020. She has run many international marathons and recently her first sub 3 hour marathon in Wales. She also enjoys swimming and playing golf. Her interest in sports has given Eimear a strong strength and conditioning background which facilitates injury prevention and rehabilitation.

It is her belief that exercise is a fundamental part of physiotherapy treatment and uses exercise to allow you to not only fix your problem but to help you improve your performance in every day activities or sports.
