Whilst in Australia, Joanna worked in a private hospital overlooking Sydney Harbour for 6 years, culminating in the post of Physiotherapist-in-Charge; managing the Physiotherapy and Allied Health department. Joanna then moved out of Sydney and spent the remaining 4 years working as a musculoskeletal and rehabilitation physiotherapist in private practice. This is where Jo really found the type of work she loved, helping people with a variety of musculoskeletal issues to get better. At this stage, Jo worked closely with orthopaedic surgeons, treating lots of patients following spinal (neck and lower back), hip, knee and shoulder surgery.
