Dr Courtnay Wood was born and raised in Melbourne, which means she has impeccable taste in coffee! ........ and values your recommendations for places to try!. She holds a double degree from RMIT University, completing a Bachelor of Health Science and Bachelor of Applied Science (Osteopathy), as well as an external hospital placement in Goa, India.

Courtnay’s interest in Osteopathy developed over her many years as a gymnast and coach, compelling her towards maximising her learning and understanding of the detailed workings of the human body. She endeavours to learn about what motivates you towards health and is excited to treat as many different conditions as possible.

This means she enjoys managing a broad range of conditions, including but not limited to jaw pain, shoulder pain (subacromial impingement), repetitive strain injuries, and pregnancy-related discomfort. She has a passion for learning and is always up for a challenge - keen to play detective and put her problem-solving skills to the test. She is dedicated to helping you return to a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle; and is enthusiastic about guiding you to achieving your goals.

Courtnay believes in a whole-body, patient-centred approach to treatment, management and rehabilitation and welcomes all kinds of conditions as she places a high value on the opportunities of the ever-evolving health industry, evidence-based medicine and the Osteopathic field.

When not treating patients, Courtnay enjoys spending time with family and friends, reading a good book and travelling. She can speak French and is endlessly interested in other cultures and customs.
