The wealth of experience Kara offers is second to none. She is always professional, highly skilled and shows great compassion for her clients. I highly recommend her to anyone in need. I am very blessed to have met Kara all those years ago, she has opened my eyes to so much. Thank you sincerely.~ When I first saw Kara 6 years ago, I wasn't expecting to walk away feeling so fantastic.
Karakrista's holistic physiotherapy consultations are individualised one-to-one sessions lasting between 45-60 minutes. During each session there is ample time for you to share what's on your mind, in your heart and arising in your body. Karakrista takes a full history of your condition and will dive into all the current issues in your life.
Those who know me well, know that I consider the belly and lower back to be sites of prime importance in our overall health and wellbeing. Vibrant health and internal equilibrium start at the Centre of our body, the abdomen. Digestive Visceral Therapy (DVT) treats the gastrointestinal (GI) tract to enhance digestion, detoxification and rejuvenation of the internal organs.

I look forward to seeing Kara for physio and massage. She is truly wholistic, present and wise. She brings together strong skills in assessment and treatment with a beautiful caring nurturing touch, from the cosy calm environment to the hot rocks and Magic hands!
I had a sore elbow for a long time and she sorted me out very quickly. I also had a bad lower back acute injury which she skilfully takes me through what to do via the phone and set on the right path to recovering well and quickly. I can highly recommend Kara without hesitation.

There are few health practitioners I know that can combine so many different therapies into an effective treatment. Kara's knowledge and experience have helped me overcome a number of injuries, and long term health conditions. Her posture workshop, for example, changed my life very much for the better. I will continue to be treated by Kara as long as she is practicing, and feel very fortunate to have such a gifted therapist looking after my health.

Visiting Sunshine beach on holidays last year I found Karakrista and was treated by her twice and also gave my friend a treatment as a birthday gift - she was that good! I returned to the area this year & have been treated 3 times on this trip! I have always found Karakrista to be the most professional therapist - I've had both remedial massage and physiotherapy treatments from her & she is incredibly good at treating ailments. I would highly recommend her to anyone

My husband and i have been using Karakrista's services for both massage and physiotherapy for many years, and in that time we have referred many other people as we have had such excellent results and service from Kara's expertise, fabulous advice, and skilled application of both her physiotherapy for any problems either of us have had, as well as the best massage possible. It doesnt matter where else we both have massages when on holidays, Kara is our gold standard and nobody ever comes close. My husband and i both highly recommend Kara for both physiotherapy and massage.

Karakrista is a knowledgeable and experienced phsyiotherapist with a caring manner and a holistic, hands on approach. Consultations are longer and more thorough than what I have experienced with other physiotherapists. Karakrista is also the most competent massage therapist I have ever experienced. She has helped me with multiple problems and I am very happy that I found her.

Kara’s treatments are second to none. She is highly professional and knowledgeable with the mix of Physio and Yoga which brings a certain mindfulness to her work. It’s clear that her passion for her craft is what makes the results from her treatments consistently of a high standard. I’ve had body pains and aches that other practitioners have not been able to affect. One or two treatments with Kara and I feel a vast improvement. I highly recommend her services.

Very caring and knowledgeable. I've had multiple sessions with Kara for yoga, physio and massage, and she adapts the session/treatment to whatever I need. Always polite and caring, Kara assesses me at the beginning of each session and listens to any concerns, taking lots of notes to build up a holistic picture and treat accordingly. I then receive an exercise plan to do at home, reducing the number of sessions needed.

When I first saw Kara 6 years ago, I wasn't expecting to walk away feeling so fantastic. Kara's holistic approach to my wellbeing has been nothing short of amazing! Finally a Physio with real hands on treatment skills & realistic management plans.
I always learn something new about my body, mind & health after every session.
I'm ever so grateful for her kindness & outstanding skills as a practitioner.
That being said, I would highly recommend Kara to anyone ready to take the next step in their health & vitality. ✅

I was fortunate enough to have someone recommend Kara to me for a back complaint over 6years ago now. How lucky I was. Being a trained physio, she understands the musculoskeletal system of our bodies extremely well and uses that knowledge expertly when it comes to the practice of her massage therapy. I would highly recommend Kara's services to anyone.
