About Us
Discover How These Two Geelong Osteopaths Can Quickly Get Rid Of Your Headaches, Neck & Back Pain
(We’ve Helped Thousands Already)
Thousands?
That’s right… Thousands.
We owned a busy clinic in New Zealand for 6 years - now we’ve moved back home to Geelong to be closer to family…
And, surprise surprise… Clients don’t move country with you!
So, Who Are We?
We are Dr. Kate Wapling and Dr. David Birley, both registered Osteopaths and Pilates instructors, with two young children, and we have a clinic in Hope Street, Geelong West.
What Makes Us Different?
We assess, then treat related areas in your body in order to solve your pain. Sure, your back may be sore, but what is actually causing your pain?
- We take a detailed medical history (to give us the clues we need to give you an accurate physical assessment and if you need to be referred for other tests).
- Treatment includes massage, stretching, joint mobilisation and manipulation (gentle & safe).
- We work with, and may refer you to, other healthcare practitioners (to provide you with the most effective overall short and long term results).
- You’ll be shown easy prevention measures to save you time and money (because you’ll need less treatment).
Now that you know what we do,
Here’s The 7 Main Reasons Why People Choose To See Us:
- We actually spend time with you and listen to what you’re telling us (you’re not “in and out” in 5 minutes).
- We’re highly qualified (we each have a minimum of 5 years University training with Bachelors and Masters Degrees).
- We look at the complete picture (just because you might have a sore elbow, we look at other associated areas such as your shoulder, neck and other parts of your spine at the same time)
- We have treated more than 2,500 different people (so there’s an extremely high chance we’ve already seen what you’ve got).
- We were the first Osteopaths in Australia to have full Pilates rehabilitation training, and owned a Pilates studio in NZ for 5 years (we understand the benefits of specific exercise, and can teach you these).
- We’re good value (We don’t have massive overheads, allowing us to pass the savings on to you).
- Got Health Insurance? Claim it on the spot with us (no more waiting in queues and no hassle collecting receipts & sending off forms).
We’ll Get Your Pain Sorted, Fast.
If we think our treatment approach will not help you, we’ll refer you to the appropriate provider who we think might help you better (It happens).
This saves you wasting your time and money.
Our overall goal is to help you get rid of your pain, and give you the relevant methods for you to prevent it from coming back, so you don’t need more treatment.
