Our Story…


Women’s & Pelvic Health Physio Riverland officially opened in January 2022.

Elizabeth & her husband Hamish relocated to the Riverland in 2015 to explore the rural lifestyle & further opportunities. In the past 7 years they have built a life in the Riverland, starting a young family and becoming a part of an amazing community.

After working in private practise in the Riverland for a number of years, it became apparent that women’s & pelvic health was a much-needed service in the region. Elizabeth then made the decision to create the ONLY specialised Women’s & Pelvic Health Physiotherapy Clinic here in the Riverland.
