From a chance pivot at university to working with elite athletes, to overcoming serious injury and returning with even deeper empathy, Linda’s journey is defined by resilience, courage, and care.

She has broken barriers in a male-dominated field, led successful practices, and mentored countless physiotherapists, many of whom are still working alongside her today.

We’re proud to celebrate this incredible milestone and honour Linda’s ongoing contribution to the Sports & Spinal team. Her experience, wisdom, and dedication make a difference every day. 💛
