Having experienced several years of back pain in my mid-teens to mid-20's, the frustration of seeking many different treatments without any long term results lead me to complete my own study and formulate a treatment modality that really works for the relief of chronic pain.....Finch Therapy

My original training was in massage, graduating from the Australian College of Natural Medicine (ACNM) with a Diploma of Remedial Massage Therapy. An additional 18 months full time study was undertaken focusing on fitness and musculoskeletal rehabilitation.

Since the late 1990's I have owned and operated a private Brisbane practice with my main focus on musculoskeletal pain and rehabilitation, specialising in correcting faulty postural alignment and the treatment of chronic pain. During these years I have conducted exercise classes combining postural alignment retraining, flexibility and strength for post injury rehabilitation and chronic pain sufferers.

With the successful results of Finch Therapy, I now teach Doctors, Physiotherapists, massage therapist and other manual therapists.

For those suffering from chronic pain, I understand how it feels and hope to work with you to ease your pain.

Most of her treatment techniques are aimed at achieving the greatest results with the least amount of pain. Lisa believes working WITH the body achieves greater and more lasting results than painfully and forcefully working against it.
