ABOUT ME
Narelle (Nez) Sinclair
Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation Specialist
I am passionate about observing and studying the movement of the human body and am naturally drawn to helping people live their lives to their full physical potential.
Having my own experience with an acute low back injury and subsequent chronic low back pain, I understand first-hand the frustrations of not being able to do what you love due to a chronic condition.
That very frustration, combined with not finding a service provider that would assess, test, and provide a holistic individual treatment plan, fueled my passion about providing gold standard assessments and treatments along with a desire to do everything possible for my patients to overcome injury, reduce symptoms of a chronic condition and increase their quality of life.
​
OUR APPROACH
At sTs we combine remedial therapy with corrective and rehabilitative exercise to address the root cause of a patients complaint. We treat the whole person rather than isolated body parts and/or singular diagnoses.
​
Our assessment and treatment techniques are based on scientific evidence and proven practice, through extensive clinical testing, and applied clinical reasoning.
Exercise prescription is a crucial element of any sTs treatment plan. Our clinic gym allows us to observe and correct movement patterns and teach individual exercise as appropriate.
​
We ensure that once the treatment plan is complete the patient has the knowledge, understanding, and the correct tools to be able to maintain their own health and wellbeing.
​
Our therapists work hard to develop close relationships with local Doctors, Specialists, and other health care providers to ensure a collaborative approach to your recovery, as we place the individual patients needs above all else.

Education
With my extensive knowledge and understanding of human anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, and biomechanics, together with my investigative skills and the need for answers, I offer a holistic thorough assessment and provide a comprehensive individual treatment plan that will improve your quality of life.
​
With over 10 years’ experience in Sports Training at Community, State, and Elite levels; and extensive qualifications and professional development, I am trained to detect causes and risk factors that led to the development of a condition to minimise the risk of recurrence.
