Jase is an incredibly personable, dynamic and progressive physio and has been a mainstay of Adelaide Physiocare since 2012.

Progressing his physio skills, being Dad to his delightful daughter and trying to dominate Wed night social basketball keeps him active and busy!

Jase has a really effective and unique balance to his physio, having equipped himself with both leading Sports Physio training together together with more behavioural based Chronic Pain management, in addition to dry needling and manual therapy techniques. This allows him to treat a huge range of injuries effectively and with variety, and allows him to provide his clients with long-term strategies to manage and prevent injury.

Having previously played high-level football and basketball, Jase has also developed a strong interest in the treatment of sports injuries and the management of athletes and is definitely at home in our gym with clients during their rehab.

Jase consults Mon, Wed, Thur, Fri & some Sat’s.

We have been very excited to have Mon in the Adelaide Physiocare family since 2020! Mon is an incredible person and a highly talented physio, having skills to be able able to effectively resolve both acute injuries and those of a more long-standing, complex nature.

We first met Mon as a patient many years ago, and as a headache sufferer herself she has developed a real skill in treating neck related headaches and back pain. Her passion is to provide skilled hands-on therapy (including dry needling) with her exercise prescription both for home and in the gym, and is always very invested in getting her patients goals reached and back to the life they want.

Mon’s different experiences in life and physio makes her an incredibly well-rounded physiotherapist with a very holistic approach to treatment.

In addition to her physio abilities, Mon is also a wonderful mother and incredible artist - a triple threat!

Mon is currently on maternity leave.

A truly delightful person and incredibly experienced and caring physio, Amanda totally embodies the ethos of our clinic and is passionate about providing professional, warm and quality care and support to patients.

Amanda is a musculoskeletal, sports and pelvic health trained physio who can treat absolutely anything and everything, but very excitedly brings her specialty in Women's and Men’s Health (Pelvic Floor), and Pregnancy Care Physio to the clinic.

Outside of the clinic you will find Amanda mostly with her young family, but also hardstanding somewhere (yes she is a handstand instructor!), doing yoga or acro-yoga, CFS volunteering or training for marathon ocean swimming events.

Alex is an incredibly thorough and personable physio, and we have been so excited to have him in the team since 2020! He has added a huge amount of strength to the team, with a real eye for detail, natural problem-solving skills and believing in thorough assessment and education as the cornerstone of his treatment.

Due to Alex’s problem solving and education skills, he has wonderful ability and personality to manage chronic/complex pain patients.

In addition to this, Alex also leads the way with active rehabilitation. He has a natural ability in implementing exercise therapy, whether in the gym setting with weight training or at home through independent rehab programs.

He practices what he preaches and you will always find him in our Rehab gym or going for a run at lunch to keep active and moving, often making the rest of us look a little lazy!

MASSEUR

We have been beyond excited to add Miriam to our Adelaide Physiocare team in 2022! We have known her for a long while and always knew she would be the perfect fit for when we added a massage service to our clinic. She is a wonderfully vibrant, passionate, empathetic and caring person, and this personality is very much entrenched in her massage style.

Incredibly Miriam has completed both a Physiotherapy and Dental Hygiene degree from Spain before she moved to Australia. This brings an added level of expertise to her massage.

In addition to her natural Spanish language and highly proficient English language, Miriam also speaks some intermediate Portuguese and basic French - show off!

Miriam consults Wed, Thurs and Fri.

PRACTICE MANAGER / ADMINISTRATION

Both Maria and Leanne are absolute, unquestionable superstars and mainstays of the Physiocare team, with nearly 50 years of administration experience between them.

Incredibly, and with sincere gratitude and recognition, Maria has been with Adelaide Physiocare since our creation over 30 years ago!

Maria brings unrivled experience, personality, creativity and motivation to the clinic.

When you meet Maria you realise she always has others’ well being at heart and this puts her in a wonderful position to be front and centre when you walk through the doors. Her dedication to her own family including two energetic sons, plus her work family and daily walks with Leanne keep her busy and moving.

Maria is at the clinic Mon, Tue, Thur, Fri and Sat.

ADMINISTRATION

Both Maria and Leanne are absolute, unquestionable superstars and mainstays of the Physiocare team, with nearly 50 years of administration experience between them.

Leanne has been with Adelaide Physiocare since 2005 - an incredible 17 years at the time of writing this in 2022.

Leanne is an invaluable colleague and has an invested interest when you enter the clinic. She has an uncanny ability to always find a way to call back and fit people in if we are fully-booked, even when it seems impossible!

Splitting her time between her two amazing kids, one grand son who is impeccably cute and the work team, plus daily walks with Maria keeps her (mostly) out of trouble!
