Megan consults 2 days a week at Bare Motion in Carine. Combining her deep understanding of the mechanisms underlying pain with evidence-based practice she strives to empower her patients and promote self-sufficiency, within a positive and active environment. Megan uses biomechanical digital video analysis to help identify underlying contributing factors such as faulty movement patterns, which enables accurate diagnosis and effective treatment.
Megan has been lecturing and teaching at the University of Notre Dame for the past 8 years. She has taught the Soft Tissue Injury Management, Upper Limb, Lower Limb and Lumbar Spine courses and she co-ordinated the Orthopaedics Course within the School of Physiotherapy for several years. Currently she is teaching the Cervical Spine course. Megan has also recently completed a Master of Philosophy degree through the University of Notre Dame. Her research explored particular mechanisms underlying pain. Her article entitled “Visually-induced analgesia in a deep tissue experimental pain model: a randomised cross-over experiment” was published in the European Journal of Pain.
Prior to this, Megan gained clinical experience in both hospital and private practice musculoskeletal settings in South Africa, England and in Perth. This culminated in her establishing and directing her private practice in the northern suburbs, until she commenced teaching at the University of Notre Dame in 2012, on a permanent basis. Megan places great emphasis on education with a view to assisting patients to manage and prevent their conditions as independently as possible.
