Denise Stewart, is an Occupational Therapist who has worked with survivors of cancer for 30 yrs.

Denise knows her own chronic and complex pain. As a child with chronic tonsillitis, she required repeat antibiotics.

As a young adult she suffered serious spine damage while surfing and then had a nasty fall, jumping a fence when 8 months pregnant.

Back pain seemed to extend into persistent shoulder and arm pain and weakness, spanning 20 years.

Unfortunately, pain, poor sleep and irritability were common companions, despite seeking varied treatment options.

As a young woman, being a wife, a worker, a mother to a young family, and exercising were all important to her.

It was vital to find a new level of health and wellness.

With extensive research and trialling new therapies, a successful treatment approach was developed to manage chronic shoulder pain. Each program is personalized and includes a combination of: new musculoskeletal and scar treatments, posture + core stability retraining, having a stress management strategy, restoring gut health, managing food sensitivities and regular self-treatment.

Denise Stewart is recognized as a forward thinking leader in breast cancer rehabilitation in Australia and beyond.
