Ben Mortimer - Physiotherapist

Ben graduated with a Masters of Physiotherapy from the University of Canberra in 2013 and has been in private practice ever since. Prior to this Ben had completed a Bachelor in Exercise and Sport Science through the University of Western Sydney in 2009. Over these years Ben has obtained extensive experience in a number of settings including acute and chronic musculoskeletal concerns, pre and post-operative rehabilitation, chronic pain, rheumatology and sports. Ben has traveled extensively with a number of sports teams and is currently the team Physiotherapist for the Australian Ultimate Frisbee and Oztag teams and is involved on match day for the NRL Referees.

Ben believes in taking a holistic approach to his patients’ concerns by exploring all potential avenues through a comprehensive assessment. During consults, Ben believes in an open communication style to allow for a collaborative approach and to also keep his clients informed at all times. This greatly enhances a patient’s experience leading to excellent outcomes in reducing pain and improving function.

Ben has completed additional training in:

  • Dry needling
  • Chronic pain interventions
  • Graded motor imagery
  • Muscle energy techniques
  • Post-operative rehabilitation

When Ben is not working his dream job as a Physiotherapist he is often kept busy with his family commitments on the weekend with his wife Emma and son Jack. During downtime, Ben will often be out surfing, at the gym or playing golf.
