On this week’s episode I am super excited to be introducing you to our next special guest Physiotherapist, Rebecca Gawler. Bec works at two clinics in Melbourne at ‘Eat Love Live’ and Balance North as Physiotherapist. Working as a Physiotherapist with her own lived experience of disordered eating, Bec began to notice the link between physiotherapy presentations and struggles with disordered eating. Especially when working with a lot of athletes, those who overexercise or those who have sustained injuries as a result of a rapid increase in exercise. Not only that, but Bec sees people who have struggles with body image, compulsive exercising or people who use exercise as a way to cope with difficult emotions.
As Physiotherapists are typically the first point of contact for people requiring support from a physical injury, stress fracture, chronic pain or illness impacting mobility, Bec began to see the link between physical and psychological recovery. Where she began to utilise trauma informed care and eating disorder informed practices. To be able to better support people who have complex relationships with movement, exercise, and their bodies.
On this week’s episode Bec will be able to share with us a little bit more about the work that she does in supporting people in the recovery process with disordered eating. Providing education and advocacy around the awareness of eating disorders and the tailored support that can be provided by Physiotherapists. So please, welcome our next guest Bec!
