Meet Patrick – Osteopath in New Gisborne
Patrick is a registered osteopath at Emerge Health and Wellness Hub, helping people across Gisborne, New Gisborne and the Macedon Ranges improve movement, reduce pain, and achieve better long-term musculoskeletal health.
Patrick holds a Bachelor of Science (Osteopathy) and Master of Health Science (Osteopathy) from Victoria University. His passion for osteopathy developed from seeing firsthand the positive impact manual therapy can have on people’s comfort, mobility, and quality of life.
With a strong background in sport, including basketball, swimming, and athletics, Patrick developed a deep understanding of human movement, physical performance, injury prevention, and rehabilitation. He combines this experience with evidence-informed osteopathic care to help patients restore function and move with confidence.
Patrick supports patients with a wide range of musculoskeletal concerns, including:
-
Back and neck pain
-
Postural strain and workplace-related discomfort
-
Sports injuries and movement limitations
-
Muscle and joint pain
-
Rehabilitation following injury or periods of reduced activity
A particular area of interest for Patrick is helping people manage the physical demands of modern lifestyles. Whether it is long hours at a desk, repetitive workplace tasks, or physically demanding occupations, Patrick works with patients to understand the underlying factors contributing to their discomfort and provides practical strategies to improve posture, movement, and daily function.
His understanding of physical workload and recovery has also been shaped by years working in his father’s gardening and maintenance business, giving him firsthand insight into the demands that manual labour places on the body.
Patrick takes a personalised approach to care, focusing not only on symptom relief but also on helping patients build healthier movement habits and reduce the likelihood of recurring issues.
Outside of the clinic, Patrick enjoys staying active through gym training, spending time with family and friends, and following live sport whenever possible.
