Available Mon, Wed, Thurs

My name is Claude, and I am a registered Osteopath who graduated from RMIT University with a Bachelor of Health Science and a Bachelor of Applied Science (Osteopathy).

During my studies, I completed a placement in India, working across hospital and community settings to provide hands-on treatment and health education to local communities. This experience inspired my move from Melbourne to Hervey Bay, Queensland, where I have spent the past six years practising in a busy multidisciplinary clinic, treating a wide range of acute and chronic conditions including managing whole families, from teens through to the elderly.

As a passionate sports enthusiast, I have experienced my own share of injuries and setbacks. These experiences have helped shape my empathetic and practical approach to patient care, allowing me to better understand the physical and emotional challenges that can accompany injury and recovery.

I take a personalised, hands-on approach to treatment, tailoring each session to the individual and incorporating targeted exercise prescription to support recovery and prevent future injury. I have also completed additional training in dry needling and cupping therapy. I enjoy working with patients of all ages, from adolescents to older adults, with a focus on delivering effective management and long-term relief.

Outside of work, you’ll find me playing or watching sport, enjoying live music, travelling and spending time at the beach with my golden retriever Leo.
