Physiotherapy

“From the outset Bernie made me feel comfortable, explained my MRI in layman’s terms, showed me pictures that I could understand, gave me workable exercises that I could do throughout the day, and did usual physio things.  We mapped a plan including exercises and adjusting sleeping patterns, and now I’m recovering at a rate quicker than we all expected.  I have found Bernie listens intently to my words, but also what I show with my face … and she responds accordingly.  I thought I was coming for just physio.  I got that, but also a holistic body/life plan change.”

“I have been seeing Bernie for well over 5 years now and there is nobody else I would trust my body too. The moment I walked into Bernie's treatment room I felt at ease. Bernie took the time to listen to what was going on in my body then started treatment.  Her gentle nature and her concern means she can get to what you need straight away.”

“Working with Bernie has resulted in some very significant shifts for me. I feel more calm and grounded, more confident, and more hopeful since working with Bernie.  Others have also noticed a positive change in my energy and demeanour. I have no idea how or why Body Talk works, but it has helped me enormously, and I am happy to recommend Bernie, as a gentle and insightful practitioner."

“I first booked in to Inspire Physio & Wellness for a last minute urgent physio appointment, as my Physiotherapist at the time was unavailable. It didn’t take long for me to realise Bernie is not your average Physio. Her integrative and intuitive approach to treatment means I get so much more from my sessions. 4 years later, I still see Bernie for physio when required, but personally I get even more from Body Talk, I love how BT taps in to your mind, physical body and spirit. I leave each appointment feeling more in tune with myself and often addressing things I didn’t know I needed to.”

“Working with Bernie has opened up my intuitive senses and helped me understand my body in a way that I never understood was possible. The insights and relief I have gained from her body talk and integrative movement sessions are unparalleled and have helped me address ongoing aches and ailments with uncanny precision. If you are looking for a body work specialist and physio to add to your health team, I would highly recommend Bernie.”

“Bernie's vast experience and knowledge and her healing hands, encouragement and advice have supported me to recover and thrive. Her capacity to understand the source of any pain and then what to do to shift it constantly amazes me. Her good cheer, warmth and conversation also make my visits a social highlight of the week!”

“Bernie offers a nurturing, considered and holistic approach to her care while achieving excellent results. Her calm demeanour is combined with targeted techniques and she offers individualised and achievable exercise goals to get you back on track. ”

“Bernie has evolved physiotherapy to a person-centred practice with every session providing a new learning through her unique lens.”

“Bernie uses an intuitive approach to connecting body patterns to work out what is wrong. This approach is professional and focused and has achieved lasting results for me. By integrating Bernie’s tips and self- care strategies I have lessened frequency of visits.”

“The stars were aligned for me the first time I went to see Bernie at Inspire Physiotherapy and Wellness. The improvement in my aches and pains - both short and long term, physical and mental - is always amazing. Visits to Bernie over the past few years have helped me navigate some life-challenges with increased calm and confidence.”

I've been under Bernie's care for over 11 years now, enduring a two-hour commute just to see her. The reason? Bernie's dedication to understanding me as an individual—my lifestyle, my body, and my goals—is unparalleled. Her top-notch physiotherapy service not only treats my body where it's at, but also fosters a profound self-awareness and understanding of my own physicality.

Bernie's support doesn't stop at treatment; she guides me through a continuous journey of self-care, helping me set realistic expectations for my body. As a self-professed sports addict, I rely on physical activity for my well-being, and Bernie always manages to devise exercises that allow me to stay active while healing from injuries. I wholeheartedly recommend her services.

A few years back, Bernie introduced me to Body Talk, shedding light on its mechanisms and efficacy. It didn't take long for it to become an integral part of my personal wellness routine. I see it as a process that operates from the core outward, fostering a profound awareness of the body—physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Its effects extend beyond mere awareness; it facilitates healing and initiates changes that are innate to the body's wisdom.

There have been instances where Bernie has raised queries and offered insights into specific scenarios and bodily functions that initially seemed puzzling, only for clarity to emerge weeks later. Body Talk is a modality that warrants more recognition and acceptance, as its transformative impact is truly life-altering.
