Osteopathy is a holistic, hands-on manual therapy used to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.

It recognises the significant relationship between the structure of the body and the way it functions as a whole- treating the entire body, not just the symptomatic area.

Osteopaths work with muscles, joints, ligaments, and connective tissues, aiming to restore balance, mobility, and optimal function. The goal is not only to relieve symptoms, but to identify and address the underlying cause to help prevent recurrence.

​

Dr Joelina Jowett (née Saldaneri) has worked as a qualified Osteopath in private practice for over 19 years. She graduated from RMIT University with a five-year double degree in Osteopathy with Distinction, placing in the top 15% of all RMIT graduates in 2006.

​

With a wide variety of treatment methods, Joelina treats a broad range of conditions and particularly enjoys working with neck and upper back pain, jaw dysfunction, and headaches. She has also completed advanced training in Dry Needling and Cupping, which she has found to be highly effective when combined with osteopathic treatment for appropriate patients.

​

Joelina treats patients of all ages and has a particular interest in female health, pregnancy, and post-natal musculoskeletal care. She has undertaken further studies in Obstetrics and Gynaecology within the osteopathy field.

​

In addition to her osteopathic training, Joelina has completed

Level 1 Spinal Energetics training (50+ hours of study and practical training). This work has further deepened her understanding of the nervous system and how the body responds when it feels supported, regulated, and safe.

Spinal Energetics is offered as a separate modality from Osteopathy.
