Carin Penberthy

I have over 20 years of clinical experience in private practice treating musculoskeletal, spinal and sports injuries. I’ve completed two degrees, a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Curtin University), and a Bachelor of Physical and Health Education (UWA), plus all four levels of DMA Clinical Pilates. I enjoy combining manual therapy and active rehabilitation in my approach to injury management.

I’ve worked both locally in Perth and overseas, and recently returned from Singapore where I owned a successful physiotherapy and pilates practice for several years. I have worked with various clients such as back/neck pain patients (with or without an ergonomic focus) and sports injury patients with a focus on triathletes, cyclists, runners, footballers, golfers, and dancers.

I particularly like the challenge of problem-solving and tailoring treatment plans and goals to the client’s specific needs. I believe empowering people with knowledge and solutions makes a difference in people’s lives.

I’m very focused on understanding the biomechanics and cause behind your injury/pain to ensure the correct treatment and functional rehabilitation approach is used to optimise recovery and injury prevention.

My areas of special clinical interest include:

• Spine – back pain and neck issues
• Hip/groin injury
• Knee pain
• Ankle injury and rehabilitation
• Sports-related injuries – running, triathlons, tennis, golf, cycling, football
• Dry needling
• Clinical Movement Therapy – private and small groups
