Liz is a physiotherapist and yoga teacher who brings a unique mix of western and eastern medicine to her practice. Integrating her skills in physiotherapy and yoga has enabled Liz to bring yoga to people in pain, with illness and injuries, and use the therapeutic tools of touch, breath, movement and awareness to empower them to trust in their own body and experience a better quality of life. In her physiotherapy clinic, Liz works with clients to find the underlying causes of dysfunction, assessing and treating the whole person, rather than chasing their pain. She provides advice for ongoing self-management and prevention strategies. When working with older people, Liz listens carefully to their needs as she understands the importance of individualised care and social connection. She aims to build up their strength and confidence, and reduce the risk of falls and loss of independence. As a yoga teacher, Liz’s classes are guided by her ability to apply an anatomical focus to the practice of yoga in an accessible and relevant way. Her classes offer each student an integrated, peaceful and expansive inner experience of breath, body and mind, cultivating vibrant mental and physical health. Liz loves to spend time in the ocean, be on her yoga mat, and is a passionate mountain biker. Read more
