Hi, I’m Kieran!


I work as a Specialist Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist in Australia. I am also the Director of Global Specialist Physiotherapy, a consultancy company providing Formal Mentoring, Second Opinions and Professional Development for physiotherapists and clinics in Australia and internationally.


I have completed my Physiotherapy degree, a post-graduate Masters degree in Physiotherapy and a doctorate-level Fellowship in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy!


I run lectures and workshops to health care professionals nationally in Australia on the topic of ACL tear non-surgical management, and ACL healing. I have also overseen 1000's of successful full thickness ACL tear-injured patients managed non-surgically, including return to high-level activity, with evidence of healing on repeat imaging.


I am running this course to help health care professionals and patient better manage ACL injuries non-surgically, with new awareness of the healing capacity of ACL tears.
