Sinead Kelly

A family friend gave her the name of a Kinesiologist, who she thought may be able to help. Sinead continued to see the Kinesiologist for a number of months. For the first time in many years, she felt fantastic. Studying Holistic Kinesiology and Natural therapies was then a natural progression for Sinead and has been one the best decisions of her life. She transitioned from a corporate job to a career in Holistic therapies. Since then, she has made massive changes in all aspects of her life.

Pip Severin
Pip's passion for working with the body began when she was training heavily for Crossfit competitions and was finding it hard to find a therapist that explained everything and gave meaningful, accurate information. This led her to complete her first Health Science degree in Musculoskeletal Therapy and now, feeling the need to further quench her thirst for knowledge, she is currently undertaking a second Health Science degree in Nutritional Medicine.
As part of her musculoskeletal toolkit, Pip also uses other adjunctive therapies such as dry and electric needling, laser, cupping, trigger point therapy and vagus nerve stimulation therapy. Pip, her husband and daughter moved to Chandler in late 2017 when they decided a rural setting was more their style, they now love being surrounded by their 3 dogs, 8 chickens and a lovely big rooster.
Pip specialises in all things musculoskeletal including:
- Nerve pain and symptoms
- Joint pain, movement and health
- Chronic pain and inflammation
- Back Pain
- Frozen shoulder
- Acute pain and injury

She has an interest in attachment-based parenting and works to assist the transition to parenting for the whole family.
