Bachelor of Physiotherapy

Sam graduated with the prestigious Otago University Physiotherapy Degree in 2008. He began his career as a Physiotherapist in Christchurch, where he mainly assessed and treated high school students, giving him invaluable experience in adolescent injury management.

Building on this experience, he managed several sports teams between 2008 and 2011, including the renowned South Island school boys rugby team (St Bede’s College), several men’s premier division teams and the U20s Canterbury Crusaders team.

In 2011 he moved to the Gold Coast and joined All About Physio, where he has built up specialist skills in post-operative and work rehabilitation, hydrotherapy and gym programs. Sam has undertaken further training in Dry Needling, Clinical Pilates, and Functional Strength Training. In 2017 Sam completed a Post Graduate Certificate in pain and pain management, an area of special interest for him.

Sam has also developed a unique class at All About Physio, which incorporates Clinical Pilates with Functional Strength Training – this currently runs of Wednesday evening.

When he’s not in the clinic there’s a very good chance he’s out in the surf.
