Anushka is a new member of the Lifecare team and a recent physiotherapy graduate from Flinders University. With a background in competitive sports—including table tennis, athletics, cricket, and soccer—her experiences as an athlete sparked her passion for physiotherapy and injury prevention.

In 2023 and 2024, Anushka worked with two community AFL clubs in Adelaide and served as a Trainer for Football South Australia’s Girls NTC and Youth team. She also supported FSA’s U15 Girls squad at the 2024 National Youth Championships in Melbourne, gaining expertise in managing musculoskeletal injuries, particularly in female athletes.

Anushka takes an individualized, evidence-based approach to care, combining manual therapy with exercise-based rehabilitation. She has a special interest in chronic injuries and guiding clients through a safe return to activity while prioritizing clear communication and patient involvement.

Outside work, Anushka enjoys playing soccer, staying active, and exploring new sports and outdoor activities.
