My name is Michelle Nicolazzo and I am an Osteopath (registered with the Australian Osteopathic Association) providing professional treatments and solutions for all body ailments, conditions and injuries through Osteopathic Medicine. I am based at Coolum Beach, on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia, which is a beautiful part of the world.
I provide a whole body manual approach to back pain & neck pain, sports injuries, headaches, migraines, joint pain & arthritis, postural & mobility problems. I also specialise in a wide range of pregnancy, infant, toddler and children specific skeletal conditions.
With a strong sporting background in track and field athletics, basketball,and gymnastics, it continues to be an integral part of my life and I continue to participate in regular physical activity. Coaching in various sports at state levels, and treating both professional and Olympic athletes has been an inspiring time in my life.
Prior studies in Applied Science (Human Movement) give me extended knowledge in the areas of sports rehabilitation, injury prevention, biomechanics and nutrition. My osteopathic clinical skills include manipulation, soft tissue, stretching and joint articulation techniques along with orthopaedic, neurological and postural diagnostic skills.
Special interests include:
· Spinal and Sports injuries ( back hips, knees and ankle injuries)
· Obstetrics and gynaecology (Back & pelvic pain during and post pregnancy and women’s health)
· Paediatric and Adolescent health (infants suffering from colic, reflux & respiratory complaints such as asthma).
· Postural rehabilitation (poor posture causing Headache back and neck pain)
What I love most about Osteopathy is that, people form all walks of life can benefit from Osteopathic Treatment.
