Penny's hands-on and exercise-based approach to treatment means that patients can really understand their problem and take an active part in managing their own health and fitness.

Co-founding the Physiotherapy, Posture, and Fitness Clinic in 1999, Penny has been its Senior Associate for 11 years.

With a personal background in dance, one of Penny's main interests is movement analysis and postural assessment. In the past, she has worked with a variety of sports people in The Sports Clinic at Sydney University including: the Sydney University Rugby team, Olympic level rowers, runners, and triathletes. She uses this expertise in designing individual and small group exercise programs. He current work at the Physiotherapy, Posture, and Fitness clinic includes teaching clinical pilates in two fully equipped pilates studios and using Real Time Ultrasound for specific rehabilitation of the deep trunk stabilizers.

Penny spent several years developing a number of education programs for health professionals. This includes teaching the Posture, Soft tissue, and Exercise course for physiotherapists, teaching, and designing the sports massage programs at the NSW School of massage, and teaching personal trainers around Australia and in Singapore. Since having her own child 3 years ago, she has also been teaching pre and postnatal exercise prescription.

Penny's other areas of interest include lower limb analysis and biomechanical assessment, which has arisen from her work making orthotics with a well-known Sydney podiatry group. Additionally, teaching posture at the University of Sydney's School of Dentistry has encouraged her further study on the TMJ during her Master’s degree.

When not in the clinic, Penny does all manner of activities, including pilates, dancing, swimming, jogging, yoga and being a mum.
