Todd Bird
Physiotherapist
My name is Todd Bird, I am a qualified Physiotherapist and the Director of Peak Sports Physiotherapy.I started Peak Sports Physiotherapy with the aim of providing the highest-quality physiotherapy service available to the North East community. My clinical interests cover all musculoskeletal and sporting injuries; however, I am particularly interested in lower limb rehabilitation and running-related injuries.
My qualifications include graduating from Charles Sturt University in 2010 and completing a graduate certificate in Sports Physiotherapy in 2015. After taking a break from study, I am now completing my Master of Sports Physiotherapy through Latrobe University.
Outside of work, I love sport and keeping fit. Over the past few years, I have competed in triathlons at an elite level, and have recently returned to playing footy. I also love music and playing the guitar.
