Giselle Rodrigues
Pelvic Health and Musculoskeletal Physio. I work in Cammeray.
My Story
I began my physiotherapy career in a hospital in Mumbai, before moving to Vancouver to pursue higher studies. After spending five winters in Canada however, I sought warmer climates and relocated to Australia.
In Sydney, I worked in cardiorespiratory physiotherapy at a private hospital, gradually gaining experience across all clinical areas in the hospital. I found working in Maternity and Women’s Health especially fulfilling. As a new mum, I related to the challenges of pregnancy and postnatal recovery - how challenging it was to recover my strength and fitness after childbirth. This personal journey led me to pursue advanced training in women’s health physiotherapy.
At The Physiotherapy Clinic, I am fortunate to be part of a team of exceptional clinicians who are not only skilled but also fully committed to continuous learning, collaboration, and excellence in patient care.
What makes me different:
Having worked in India, Canada, and Australia across various clinical settings and with patients across all age groups and cultural backgrounds I have learned that each body is unique and that every patient should be listened to carefully, considered individually, and treated holistically.
As a women’s health physiotherapist, I am passionate about empowering women to understand the amazing transformations their bodies have undergone and giving them the tools and guidance to achieve their goals
