KATIE BARRY

Senior Physiotherapist
WHTA Member, APA Member

Katie’s passion for Women’s Health started early in her career as a New Graduate Physiotherapist in 2014.

She has predominately worked in the Public Health setting in Women’s, Men’s and Pelvic Health Physiotherapy where she has treated a range of conditions including complex pelvic floor dysfunction, pelvic pain, prolapse, incontinence and bowel dysfunction, as well as pregnancy and postnatal pelvic floor and muscular dysfunction.

Katie is passionate about ensuring that every patient receives individual, holistic management.

She takes the time to carefully listen so she can provide her patients with the most relevant information and treatment plans, enabling them to make informed and empowered choices about their health care.

Katie enjoys treating all forms of pelvic pain, is passionate about Birth Choice and loves sharing and receiving new knowledge and skills with her colleagues.

When Katie isn’t at work, you will find her with her husband and daughter running around the backyard or doing yoga or Pilates anywhere she finds space at home – usually with her little person close by and taking space on her yoga mat.
