Climbing & Upper Limb Physio

Hi, I’m Nadia

I've always been fascinated by movement in all its forms: climbing, grappling, gymnastics, obstacles courses and what the human body is capable of. That's what pulled me into upper limb rehab.

I work with climbers in that messy middle stage of rehab after the pain's settled but before you're actually back to performing at your limit. Too many people get told to rest, then get cleared once things feel okay, with no real plan for rebuilding grip, load tolerance and confidence in movement skills.

I take it further than "pain-free." Crimping on small edges, locking off on steep terrain, hanging and swinging with full confidence that's the actual finish line, not just comfortable everyday movement.

When I’m not in the clinic I’m bouldering, grappling, working on my own laches and handstands at the gym always chasing a new movement skill. I'm not treating climbers from the sidelines. I'm a physio who trains the same movements you do, which is exactly why I know what "ready to perform" actually feels like.
