Tracy Woodward - Principal Physiotherapist
Tracy completed her Bachelor of Physiotherapy at La Trobe University in Victoria in 1995 and has been in the industry since. Tracy’s experience is vast, having worked in one of Melbourne’s major teaching hospitals, as a consultant physiotherapist for two VFL football teams, as a chief physiotherapist in two aged care facilities, running hydrotherapy classes and working in private practice in Victoria.
Since 2006, Tracy has worked alongside her husband Paul as a principal practitioner at our Doubleview physiotherapy centre.
Tracy has developed a sharp instinct for diagnosis and is an excellent “hands on” practitioner. Her vibrant yet gentle and caring nature appeals greatly to her loyal clients. Tracy has a special affinity with her elderly clients, having a professional background in aged care and she runs her very popular weekly exercise classes for the over 65s age group in the Doubleview clinic.
Tracy also has a keen interest in mastitis and she has provided much needed pain relief to many grateful new mums over the years with her successful combination of ultrasound and massage therapy. She is well known for her mastitis treatments amongst the local Maternal and Child Health nurses and doctors alike.
Tracy has a keen interest in exercise therapy. To further enhance her exercise and nutrition knowledge, Tracy gained her Certificate 3 and 4 in Fitness from the Australian Institute of Personal Trainers in 2011 and she is a fully qualified personal trainer which is a great asset for her work in gym rehabilitation. Tracy designs individual gym rehabilitation programmes for our workers’ compensation and motor vehicle accident clients to help them regain their pre-injury level of health and fitness.
As well as being a physiotherapist and personal trainer, Tracy is also a devoted human rights campaigner for Amnesty International and she has initiated a successful program called "Meals by Mums" which provides hundreds of home cooked meals for Perth's homeless each year. Tracy is a mum to two gorgeous teenage children, she cooks with great abandon and her hobbies are reading, spending time at the beach and eating what she shouldn't while still trying staying fit!
