Sam Cobourn

Sam grew up in Port Macquarie and has since relocated to the Sunshine Coast, where he continues to apply his physiotherapy expertise. Graduating with Distinction from Charles Sturt University with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy, Sam has developed a broad skill set in treating all areas of the body, with a particular interest in lower limb and sports injuries.

Sam has pursued further training to enhance his practice, including the GLA:D program for evidence-based management of osteoarthritis and additional education on the multifactorial nature of pain conditions. He also holds a Certificate in Dry Needling. Sam has experience working with a local AFL club, giving him additional skills in sports injury management.

A key aspect of Sam’s practice is his use of VALD software, a cutting-edge technology that enables precise assessments and more tailored treatment programs, leading to improved patient outcomes. Sam is dedicated to creating individualized management plans that align with each patient’s goals, helping them return to the activities they enjoy.

Outside of his professional life, Sam has an extensive martial arts background. He has both instructed and competed at an international level, representing Australia in Russia and China.
