Lara is an amazing physio. She is very compassionate and so knowledgeable. Excellent bedside manner!

As level 5 of lockdown restrictions were being eased and outdoor exercise was allowed, the one thing I couldn't wait to do with this new freedom was to run again. I knew that going from not being able to run for weeks due to lockdown restrictions to into running long distances on the road might do more harm than good. Nothing good ever comes from going too fast too far too soon. I contacted Lara for a running program that look all of this into account and she has helped me ease back into running with nothing but love for my sport. What I love most about Lara's running program is that the program is flexible to suit what my week looks like, and how I am feeling. Every week is different from the last and there is progression on what I was able to run on the previous week. Lara incorporates a little bit of everything from tempo runs to easy runs to long runs to hills so all bases are covered. Not only did I get my love for running back while working with Lara, but my times have improved tremendously. Lara is always a quick message away on Whatsapp if I need her. She is also very encouraging and understanding. Lara's help came just at the right time. If you want to improve your running times or endurance or get back into it after a nice break, then Lara is definitely the one to help you out.

I have over the last year seemed to be quite accident prone and I have injured myself on numerous occasions, needing professional assistance with my recovery.I saw Lara for the first time in 2020 and have been going back for assistance with my injuries since then. Lara is a great physio, she listens, understands the issues and gives great advice for post injury recovery exercises. She has a great bedside manner and had helped me recover from all my injuries quickly and painlessly.Pain that I have been dealing with for many years was also diagnosed correctly and Lara has helped me remove that pain permanently, and with little fuss. I am extremely grateful for her expertise and professional service. I would happily recommend Lara to anyone who needs treatment from a physiotherapist.

Lara has helped me sort out all my running niggles and discomfort over the past few years, and helped with rehab of a nasty stress fracture. I can highly recommend her services!

I've struggled with ITB problems because of running for years, and the physios I'd previously seen only ever helped ease the pain. After I saw Lara, not only did she completely relieve the pain and tightness in my leg with dry needling and massage, she also taught me exercises to prevent the injury from returning. Really such a great experience to work with a professional.

Not only do i feel better after my session at Lara Brookstein Physiotherapy, but i actually understand what went wrong and how to prevent it from reoccurring. Thank you.

Lara has been instrumental in improving my running over the last few months. Lara is working with me virtually as I live in Australia and it feels as if she is right there with me. Her expertise, compassion, and care in my journey makes her the best running coach I’ve had. As a Physio, she is able to provide a holistic approach to the running plan that not only focuses on running, but also on Pilates, strengthening, and rest which helps prevent injuries. She is the perfect go-to for returning to running, improving your PB or getting to that distance you’ve been struggling to reach. I can’t recommend her enough. She has transformed my running and I am now running less than before, but running more effectively and efficiently and therefore improving my pace and overall distance. I’d give her more than 5 stars if I could!

I would 100% recommend Lara. The physiotherapy was professional and I saw impressive results very quickly. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

Lara is amazing at what she does. She always listens to your concerns and you always leave feeling so much better. She is so passionate, caring and kind. She makes you feel very comfortable. I would highly recommend to anyone needing a physio.
