ABOUT US
Welcome to Our Website!
We’re so glad you found us!
I’m Kathryn, co-founder and director of Eastern Osteopathy and The Pelvic Place Melbourne. I’m also a mama, sister, osteopath, educator, mentor, and co-founder of the Australian Pelvic Health Institute of Australia. My passions lie in osteopathy, yoga, mindfulness, and being a fierce advocate for self-care, gut health, and women’s health.
From the moment I started university, I dreamed of creating a clinic where care was centered around people, not just symptoms—a space where the whole family would feel welcome. That vision became a reality in 2013 when my twin sister, Liz, returned from New Zealand, and together, we founded Eastern Osteopathy. Our mission was simple: to create a safe and supportive space for true healing.
We understood that the key to exceptional care was listening deeply to our patients, identifying the root cause of their concerns, and crafting treatment plans that met their unique needs. Over time, our clinic became renowned not just for general osteopathy but also as a leader in pelvic health and pregnancy care.
After seven wonderful years, Liz moved away from Melbourne (just before the Covid-19 lockdowns!), but not before helping build the strong foundation we stand on today. Over the past decade, we’ve been fortunate to attract like-minded osteopaths—practitioners with outstanding skills, deep empathy, and a genuine commitment to helping patients achieve their health goals. In 2023, we welcomed Nicole Cukierman as a junior partner, further strengthening our team.
We believe that healing extends beyond the individual—it ripples through families and communities, creating a far-reaching impact. This philosophy is reflected in our logo, a reminder that helping one person can spark change far beyond what we can see.
We look forward to supporting you and your family on your journey to better health.
