Throughout his career, Geoff has worked with premier sporting organisations. Notably, he has provided physiotherapy services for the Brisbane Bullets, Brisbane Lions, and V8 Supercars.
Geoff is passionate about supporting active adults and athletes. These range from “weekend warriors” to elite competitors. In doing so, he helps them work towards their specific performance goals. He has a particular interest in managing complex cases and post-surgical rehabilitation. In particular, his clinical focus includes lower limb biomechanics and spinal health. His “bread and butter” expertise covers many conditions. Specifically, neck and back pain, shoulder pain and injuries, knee and patello-femoral pain, and ankle sprains.
