George Leonardos

George graduated from RMIT University in 2021 with a Bachelor of Health Science and Bachelor of Applied Science (Osteopathy). Having grown up locally and attending school on on Phillip Island, George feels a strong connection to the local community, leading him to join Balance Health in 2022.
 
George loves the holistic nature of osteopathy and believes that we all hold the power to improve our physical health/well-being when given the right tools, motivation, and support. As an osteopath he strives to be a key motivator to facilitate these changes and empower people to be the best versions of themselves. 
 
George takes great satisfaction in treating a range of musculoskeletal conditions through a combination of hands-on osteopathic techniques, education, and exercise. He takes on an evidence-based treatment and management approach with the aim of reducing the recurrence of pain, improving patient outcomes, and compassionately empowers his clients to attain a better quality of life. George is particularly skilled at managing low back pain, and neck pain with associated headaches or migraines.

His active involvement in various sports includes power-lifting, basketball, swimming, football, soccer, and MMA/kickboxing. This has given him firsthand experience with sports-related injuries and discomfort. This personal experience has driven him to develop comprehensive treatment and management protocols aimed at facilitating recovery and minimising the risk of future injuries.
 
George role models an active, healthy, and balanced lifestyle, which underpins his osteopathic approach. In his spare time, you can find him at the gym, being outdoors, playing his guitar, relaxing, cooking and/or spending time with his friends and family.
