Dr. Naomi Nanayakkara
From a young age Naomi had a keen interest and fascination with health and the human body, matched with a passion to help others. There was no doubt that this led to Osteopathy being a perfect fit for her, she is currently in her final year of her Osteopathy course at Victoria Univerity.
Having suffered with shoulder injuries of her own, she has experienced first-hand the positive impact that Osteopathic preventative and holistic treatments can have on a patient’s outlook and quality of life.
Naomi enjoys treating individuals throughout all stages of their health journey, with a keen interest in educating and empowering her patients to take charge of their health so they and get back to doing what they love in life unhindered. Naomi strives to listen, understand, and educate her patients to help manage their pain, bringing a compassionate and empathetic approach to her treatments. She adopts a hands-on approach with the incorporation of exercise rehabilitation and movement (including Pilates) to achieve best patient outcomes.
When not studying or working Naomi enjoys pottering in her garden, going for walks in nature with her gorgeous dogs Mort and Abbey or trying exciting new restaurants with her partner.
