Mobile NDIS Physiotherapist who is Greek speaking and works with people with a disability aged from 16 years and above with NDIS funding who are Self-managed or have a Plan Manager. I have had a passion to learn about the NDIS since it started in 2013 which resulted in me working as a NDIS Planner at the Geelong trial site and being promoted to Management roles within the not-for-profit sector. Athenaphysio was created out of a strong desire to help people so I can use all the skills I have learned as a Physiotherapist, Manager, and NDIS planner to help people with a disability.
I'm holistic, respectful and work with people one-on-one to help people achieve their goals. Due to my varied experience with traditional Physiotherapy techniques and Assistive Technology (equipment) I can reduce the need for another allied health clinician which makes sure you are getting the most out of your NDIS funding.
