Phil Patton

Phil is a Sports and Integrative Physiotherapist from Katoomba, NSW, Australia. He holds a Physiotherapy Degree from The University of Sydney (2002) and a Masters in Sports Physiotherapy from La Trobe University (2012). He has worked in a diverse range of areas: from intensive care units to elite sporting environments.

Throughout his career he has relentlessly pursued continuing education. Phil first started training in the ISM in 2010 and has since used it as his primary clinical reasoning framework to integrate all the other modalities he has trained in: Visceral and Neural Manipulation with Barral Institute, Upledger Craniosacral Therapy, Chikly Lymph Drainage Therapy and the Buteyko Breathing Method. In 2019 Phil became the first physiotherapist in Australia to be certified in Visceral Manipulation with the Barral Institute.

Phil is passionate about increasing his understanding of how all the systems of the body are connected, how they communicate and how they influence complex clinical conditions. A large part of Phil’s clinical load at his practice involves seeing patients who have not responded favourably to standard manual therapy or exercise approaches.
