Functional Living was born in 2018, with a need to help people live as functionally, independently, and amazingly as possible, so that they can do all of the day-to-day activities that are important to them.
I’ve had the privilege of working as an Occupational Therapist in the Top End of the Northern Territory, Australia, for over 18 years, with 13 of those years dedicated to specialising in Lymphoedema and Scar Management.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals from diverse backgrounds who have faced life-changing challenges, including cancer, trauma, and serious injuries. I am acutely aware that many people—especially those living in rural and remote communities—struggle to access specialised follow-up therapy services. This lack of access often results in poorer health outcomes and long-term functional limitations.
Life is short, and it should be lived to its fullest—functionally, beautifully, and without unnecessary barriers. No one should have to settle for a diminished quality of life due to preventable or treatable conditions.
My mission is to empower individuals to take control of their health and recovery, helping to make a meaningful difference in embracing life’s possibilities.
Our online courses provide you with accessible, easy-to-understand, practical tools for helping to manage soft tissue conditions, such as swelling, lymphoedema, and scarring.
Our aim is to empower you with the right knowledge and skills so you can take charge of your recovery and improve your daily life, wherever you may be.
