Meet Fiona

Osteopath with a focus on Gut Wellness and TMJ Dysfunction

Hi, I am Fiona,  an Osteopath who is passionate about gut wellness. I have a particular interest in treating adults, both women and men, with a range of digestive complaints using visceral osteopathy, also known as visceral manipulation and likened to 'stomach' massage. Additionally, I have an interest in treating patients with TMJ dysfunction.

I strongly believe that stress is a major driver in less optimal health in the current modern day, with its impact often having a role in poor digestion and TMJ dysfunction. I have always been interested in the mind-body connection and how they influence each other. I feel it is vital to address all causes of disease in the body to help it function optimally, and that mindset is important.

I relocated home to Australia in March 2020, after previously living and working in the UK for 21 years. During that time, I spent the last 10 years working in London as a massage therapist and later an osteopath, with a strong focus on abdominal massage and visceral osteopathic treatments. Most of my patients during this time were stressed-out city workers with digestive problems. A few of the presentations I treated were constipation, reflux, bloating, SIBO, and general 'abdominal' pain and discomfort, sometimes also known as visceral hypersensitivity.

Bringing together the knowledge and skills I have learned from my training in the UK I am now practicing as an osteopath in Sydney, at The Body Project clinic in Chatswood, Blues Point Practice, McMahon's Point and You Little Beauty, Killarney Heights. I use a combination of techniques I have learned over the years in all aspects of my education, training, and continued professional development to help patients on their journey to optimal digestive health and well-being.

In my spare time, I love fermenting food, walking and spending time in nature, brewing tea & drinking coffee, and dreaming of my next trip overseas.
