Brianna Bourne

Currimundi · Sandstone Point

Brianna, originally from the Sunshine Coast, discovered her interest in physiotherapy through her lifelong involvement in sport and fitness. Having grown up playing a wide range of sports including touch, netball, rugby and volleyball, she inevitably experienced injury herself and was supported through rehabilitation by a physiotherapist. This experience highlighted the profound impact physiotherapy can have on a person's wellbeing and inspired her to pursue the profession.

Brianna completed a Bachelor of Physiotherapy at the Australian Catholic University, undertaking clinical placements across Neurorehabilitation, Women's Health, Cardiorespiratory, Musculoskeletal Injuries and Surgical Rehabilitation. These experiences strengthened her commitment to supporting individuals through their recovery and helping them return to the activities that bring them joy. During her studies, she also worked as a sports trainer, gaining valuable insight into complex musculoskeletal conditions and developing a passion for guiding young athletes through their rehabilitation journeys.

With a particular interest in Women's Health Physiotherapy, Brianna has completed additional qualifications in this specialty. She is dedicated to empowering women through all stages of life, providing evidence-based, compassionate care tailored to each person's needs.

Outside of work, Brianna enjoys spending time with her dog, getting to the beach whenever she can, and participating in social sports. Her drive for self-improvement and her personal experiences shape her commitment to delivering high-quality care and helping every patient achieve their goals and live their healthiest, happiest life.

FAQs

Common questions.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Comfortable clothes are fine. If you have a recent ultrasound, scan or specialist letter, bring it.

Can I bring my baby?

+

Absolutely. We have space for prams and are happy to pause the session if you need to feed.

Do I need a referral for a pessary fitting?

+

No referral needed. We do recommend an initial appointment first so we can assess prolapse type and grade, and discuss whether a pessary is the right option for you.

Will I need an internal examination?

+

It's the most accurate way to assess pelvic floor function, but it's never required. We can run a meaningful first appointment with external assessment or symptom-based questionnaires if you prefer.

Can I claim through my health fund?

+

Yes. Pelvic floor physio is claimable through every major health fund. We're HCF preferred provider and Medibank preferred for physio, with HICAPS available for everyone else.
