Priya Sharma

Priya graduated from AUT University in Auckland, New Zealand with a Bachelor of Health Science (Physiotherapy) in 2022. Having recently relocated to Melbourne to continue growing her skills as a physiotherapist, she is currently undertaking her Master’s in MSK Physiotherapy from La Trobe University.

During her time in New Zealand, Priya worked in a busy private practice environment, as well as extensive involvement with the local U21 rugby team as team physiotherapist, and in community football and rugby tournaments as on-site tournament physiotherapist.

Priya’s interest in physiotherapy stemmed from childhood, being involved in several sports such as karate, netball, tennis, swimming, badminton, and most recently classic dance, all which led to frequent visits to the physio. She loved the environment and the passion the physiotherapists displayed for her recovery during the rehab journey, inspiring her to continue doing the same for others. Now, she loves working with any kind of injury and seeing people from all walks of life, with particular fascination with lower limb injuries and exercise-based rehabilitation.

At Kinematics, Priya’s work ethic is centred around the goal of well-rounded holistic patient care, based on maintaining a balance between hands-on techniques, patient education strategies, dry needling, and evidence-based, goal-specific exercise and strength rehabilitation to empower each patient to reach their desired outcomes. She is also trained in Pilates and enjoys integrating both mat and reformer Pilates concepts and exercises into her management. Priya strives to help all patients return to their meaningful goals and activities by addressing the root cause of issues and utilising tailored management programmes, while empowering people to build and maintain strength and resilience in daily life.

Outside the clinic, Priya is an avid traveller and reader, and also enjoys working up a sweat either in the gym, at Pilates, or playing badminton. She also enjoys spending time with friends, and exploring the many, many cafes and restaurants Melbourne has to offer.

Priya works at Kinematics Monday – Thursday & Saturdays.
