Welcome
I am so happy you are here
hi! I’m Audriana,
a trauma informed physiotherapist and yoga teacher.
I have seen and experienced how pain and trauma can make us feel disconnected or unsafe in our own bodies. My own experience with migraines and trauma has taught me this, and the countless experiences that my clients have shared with me. My mission is to help people around the world move, live and heal from a place of safety within their own bodies. To know that living with pain, both physical and mental, does not mean you have to be defined by it.
As a physiotherapist and yoga teacher with over 10 years of experience I have seen that traditional approaches to chronic pain can often overlook the role of emotional health and the nervous system in healing.
Through my education and helping thousands of people living with chronic pain, I have found that learning about how the pain system works, finding safety in the body, and taking a mind/body approach allows people to see their pain in a different light, helping them heal. All my services and resources bring together science and compassion, the body and the mind to help you feel empowered. This is the foundation of empowered movement.

Audriana is kind, knowledgeable, passionate about her work and extremely easy to work with. I have seen her for a running related injury and her recommendations were spot on. I highly recommend her as a physio!
E D
Audriana is a wealth of knowledge. I love being able to watch her instagrams, learn from her podcast & implement actionable moves from her YouTube channel. She has credible educational insight & is just a joy to watch!
H D
Audriana is one of the most respectful and supportive physios I’ve ever worked with for chronic pain. I love that Audriana is trauma informed and aligned with Health at Every Size. She is an excellent listener, meets you where you’re at, and is body affirming by adapting movement to your body’s unique needs. If I wasn’t able to complete a recommended exercise, she never judged me. Instead she helped me to find sustainable ways to implement a movement practice that worked for me. I no longer fear movement or muscle recovery discomfort as I did prior to knowing her and I recommend Audriana to everyone!
