The Happy Body
Pain doesn’t have to be your story. Let’s write a new one.
Searching for relief?
You’re in the right place
The moment everything clicks for a patient is pure magic. I’ve watched people go from avoiding stairs to climbing mountains, from cancelling plans to leading active lives again. But here’s what makes me most proud: within just one or two sessions, I’m not just giving you relief, I’m giving you the keys to your own recovery.
I treat your whole body, not one symptom
Most pain isn’t random. It’s your body’s way of protecting you. Instead of chasing symptoms, I look at how your whole system is working together during your assessment and then use a range of innovative and whole-body treatments to help you get relief.
When we find the true cause, everything changes.
Chronic pain
Living with pain day after day can be exhausting, especially when you’ve tried so many treatments without improvement. I uncover what others have missed, so we can address the real cause and give you a path forward.
Trauma and concussion
Your body stores the impact of accidents, injuries, and stressful events, often for years. I release that stored tension so your system can relax, move freely, and feel safe again.
Inflammation
Chronic inflammation can keep your muscles tight and your joints sore. I work with your nervous system and lymphatic flow to bring your body back into balance.
Back and hip
Stiffness and pain here are often compensations for something else. I trace it back to the source so you can move freely again. Often it's not even in your back and hips, that's just the symptom.
Shoulder pain
Experiencing ongoing shoulder pain? I look at posture, breathing, and muscle activation patterns to restore mobility and strength. Fix the ribs, and the shoulder can move freely by design.
Neck pain
Neck pain is rarely just “tight muscles.” I address cranial alignment, jaw tension, and breathing mechanics to release the root cause. Faulty breathing patterns often are to blame.
I know what it’s like to live with pain
Years ago, I broke my back and wore a brace for 16 hours a day. I saw everyone you can imagine looking for a solution. Some things helped for a while, but were temporary, nothing lasted.
That experience changed me. It sent me around the world learning from the best therapists, testing everything on myself until I found what really worked. Now, years later, I use what I discovered to help people like you get their lives back.
Since 2006, The Happy Body has been helping people in Manly and surrounding areas to identify what’s missing, fine-tune their system and reach optimal wellbeing.

It starts with understanding
If you’re here, chances are you’ve tried everything. You’ve been told “it’s just tight muscles” or “you’ll just have to manage it.” Maybe you’ve spent months (or years) going to appointments without much change.
That’s where I come in. I don’t just treat the sore spot. I look at your whole body and nervous system to find what’s really driving your pain. And when we find it? We can create a treatment that addresses the root cause of your concern.
