Tess graduated from Monash University and initially worked at Monash Health rotating through a number of different physiotherapy areas. She then spent the next few years working in London at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery where she was fortunate to be a part of a great organisation providing specialised neurological management to patients coming from across the UK. She returned home and started at NRG in 2019. Tess has attended vestibular and concussion conferences both nationally and internationally and assists in providing education in these areas to colleagues, other clinics and other professions. Exercise in Parkinson’s disease is another passion of hers, and she helped develop the free education sessions that NRG runs for the community on this topic.
Tess is passionate about providing holistic and collaborative care to clients in order to maximise function and quality of life. She enjoys seeing a wide variety of patients and helping them work towards and achieve their goals.
