Short Biography
Graduating from the University of Sydney in 1st place, Michelle began her OT career working for a Not-For-Profit organisation with a largely migrant population. She continued her professional growth in paediatrics in a private practice with a large sensory focus.
Michelle authored and self-published the popular children’s book My Bendy Body: Living with Hypermobility, which has seen it translated in 3 additional languages.
While working part-time in general paediatrics, Michelle started her own private practice working solely with children & adults with hypermobility conditions (HypermobilOT). People began flocking from all over the country for a consultation with Michelle, leading to satellite clinics in Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra.
Michelle created Hypermobility Connect, an online platform for people living with hypermobility conditions in Australia and worldwide. This has since grown into a thriving online community, a Hypermobility Health Professionals Network, and an education platform to launch in the coming months.
