Bella graduated from the University of South Australia in 2019 and has worked across a variety of physiotherapy settings including private practice, hospital, and community-based care. While studying, she developed a strong passion for supporting people with neurological conditions and making a meaningful difference in their lives. At The Physio Clinic, Bella works as part of the Rehabilitation team.
Bella has previously been involved in teaching and supervising physiotherapy students, particularly in the area of neurological rehabilitation. She is currently undertaking a Master’s by research with a focus on improving balance for people with neurological conditions. She is also involved as a treating therapist in a national research project on upper limb rehabilitation for stroke survivors, working in collaboration with leading universities across Australia.
She is a firm believer in person-centred care and an evidence-based approach, combining education, self-management, and clinical exercise. Bella has exceptional rapport with her patients and always goes out of her way to ensure they have a comfortable experience. She values building strong relationships with her clients and understanding their lives beyond the clinic, which she sees as essential to delivering effective care.
Bella’s areas of interest include:
- Neurological physiotherapy
- Stroke rehabilitation
- Movement disorders
- Orthopaedic rehabilitation post-surgery
Outside of work, Bella enjoys spending time in nature, exploring new culinary experiences, building Legos, and doing jigsaw puzzles.
