Since graduating in 2010, Matt has worked extensively with elite and developing athletes across a range of sports, including serving as team physiotherapist for Maitland FC’s NPL team and the Newcastle Jets junior development squads. His hands-on experience with football players, runners, and endurance athletes has given him a deep understanding of injury prevention, performance enhancement, and return-to-sport programming.
Matt is also highly skilled in running analysis and has completed specialised training in running-related injuries. Whether you’re a competitive runner, weekend warrior, or simply looking to stay active without injury, Matt brings evidence-based strategies to help you move better, recover faster, and achieve your goals.
Beyond the clinic
Matt has always had a love for sport and previously competed at a high level in surf lifesaving. These days, he channels his competitive spirit into running events across Australia. When he’s not in the clinic or out running, you’ll likely find Matt surfing, playing golf, or cheering on his beloved Liverpool FC.
With his sporting background, advanced knowledge, and practical approach, Matt helps patients not only recover from injury but also optimise their movement and performance to prevent future setbacks.
