How Callum’s experience as a high-level runner and physio in Brisbane benefits you
Not only is Callum a skilled physiotherapist, he’s also a high-level runner. This personal experience gives him a unique understanding of the physical and mental challenges that athletes face.
“I understand the drive athletes have to compete, challenge themselves, and be their best,” Callum explains. He also knows how important it is to provide realistic goals and the right level of challenge in rehabilitation, so each patient recovers in the most effective way possible.
Injury prevention tips: common running injuries and how a physio can help prevent them
As a runner and physiotherapist, Callum treats common injuries such as:
- Hamstring strains
- Low back pain
- Knee pain
- Acute joint sprains
These injuries often result from weaknesses, tight muscles, poor movement patterns, or imbalances in the body.
“Education is key,” says Callum. “Understanding how your body moves, and what’s causing the pain, helps athletes stay injury-free and reduces the risk of future issues.” Physiotherapy helps you recover and prevents injuries before they even happen.
Callum’s top tips for staying injury-free
Whether you’re new to running or a seasoned athlete, Callum’s advice is simple: “Listen to your body.” If something feels off, don’t wait for it to get worse. Getting early advice can help you avoid bigger problems later on.
For those returning to running after a break, here are some tips:
- Start with workouts that are pain-free or muscle soreness-only workouts
- Gradually increase intensity over four weeks
- Don’t overload your body—be patient and give yourself time to adapt
Callum’s approach to training and recovery
This year, Callum is preparing for the Australian National Championships. Despite facing some health challenges, his focus remains on injury management, proper nutrition, and listening to his body. “Training well sets you up for a good season, but racing is where you set benchmarks and get used to competition,” he says.
Callum takes the same approach with his patients, helping them prepare for their own “big events,” whether that’s a race, returning to work, or simply getting back to daily life after an injury.
A fun fact about Callum
When Callum isn’t working with patients or training for races, he’s often working on his car or exploring the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast hinterlands with friends.
