We are super excited to introduce our newest sports therapist to Muscle Freedom, Tim Webber. Tim has an advanced diploma in sports therapy and is also a gymnastics coach. We know you are going to love his technique, so please book in for a treatment with Tim soon!
Why did you become a sports therapist?
I started doing coaching and that led me to think more about how the human body works. I originally was placed to do sports science, but then I saw the sports therapy course which was more rehabilitation-based and included the massage stuff. That jumped out to me, rather than being hands-off.
How would you describe your treatment style?
Being from a gymnastics background, I like to add stretching to my treatments. Strength work also comes from the gymnastics side of things. I like to provide education and take-home exercises for people to do as well.
Do you do cupping and dry-needling?
Yes.
What are your career highlights?
I worked for the Melbourne Football Club (doing massage) for a few years, and that was really fun. Earlier this year, I volunteered with the 2018 World Cup Gymnastics event at Hisense Arena. I didn’t get to treat much, but I got to watch some great gymnastics!
What are you likely to discuss on the table?
Sport in general. I like football, gymnastics, bike riding and skateboarding.
What’s your secret vice?
Chocolate is a big one. I have lost some self-control with that recently.
How are you feeling about starting at Muscle Freedom?
I’m a little bit nervous but ready for something new. That’s the most exciting part about it and getting to work with new people.
