Climbing Physio Melbourne
Hand, elbow & shoulder rehab for climbers - with a structured plan to get you back on the wall.
Based in Caufield South.
Hi! I’m Nadia!
I’m a climbing physiotherapist and founder of Climb Care Collective operating in Caufield South, Melbourne.
I founded my clinic in 2021 because I kept seeing climbers receive vague rehab advice like “see how you go” or being told to rest for extended amounts of time with general rehab advice that didn’t reflect the demands of the sport.
Climbing requires fingers ready for smaller edges, elbows that tolerate strong lock offs and shoulders resilient enough for dynamic movement. It also comes along with an understanding around fear of falling, projecting and understanding gear all of which play a role in planning your return post injury.
My focus is on rebuilding strength and confidence that reflects how we as climbers actually train and training modifications around niggles rather than suggesting complete rest.
When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll find me bouldering, rolling on the BJJ mats or off on a spontaneous outdoor adventure with my partner in our CRV!
