Staff Spotlight: Meet Alex Kelleher – Physiotherapist at Your Physio Advantage
Alex Kelleher is a dedicated physiotherapist who graduated with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) from the University of Newcastle in 2022. His journey in the field began in 2021 when he started working as a physiotherapy assistant, gaining valuable hands-on experience. Since 2020, he has been heavily involved in sports physiotherapy, working as a sports trainer and physiotherapist for the Killarney Vale Bombers until 2024. Currently, he continues to pursue his passion for sports rehabilitation as the physiotherapist for the Kincumber Roos Football Club. Prior to joining Your Physio Advantage, Alex worked as both a physiotherapist and physiotherapy assistant at Killarney Vale Physiotherapy, further refining his skills in treating a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions
Alex’s passion for physiotherapy stems from his own experiences as a young athlete. Having suffered multiple injuries throughout his sporting career, he understands firsthand the frustration of being sidelined and the importance of effective rehabilitation. This personal connection to injury management inspired him to pursue a career where he could help others recover, prevent injuries, and return to the activities they love. Specialising in sports-related injuries, Alex takes pride in working closely with athletes to optimise their performance and long-term well-being.
Outside of his professional life, Alex enjoys keeping active by going to the gym, as well as unwinding with a good book or movie. He also values spending quality time with his family and friends. Sport runs in the family, and while Alex has a strong connection to athletics, he often jokes that his sister is the true talent, as she is currently playing in the NRLW.
What Alex he loves most about his role is the variety of cases he gets to work on, as well as the opportunity to collaborate with an incredible team of professionals. Whether helping athletes recover from injuries or assisting everyday patients in improving their mobility and well-being, Alex is committed to making a positive impact on every individual he works with.
