Franca Reichhardt is an Osteopathic Practitioner and Physiotherapist whose clinical approach focuses on understanding the factors that influence pain, movement, and function. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy and a Master of Science in Osteopathy, combining a strong background in rehabilitation with a comprehensive osteopathic approach to patient care. Over the years, Franca has worked with patients experiencing a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including low back pain, neck pain, headaches, sports injuries, and joint dysfunction. She has a particular interest in women’s health, pelvic health, and persistent musculoskeletal complaints that can affect daily function and quality of life. Alongside musculoskeletal assessment and treatment, Franca is interested in the relationship between different body systems and how they may influence pain, movement, and recovery. Her Master’s research focused on the effects of visceral osteopathic techniques in individuals with non-specific low back pain. Franca believes that successful treatment involves more than addressing symptoms alone. She works closely with her patients to identify contributing factors, support recovery, and help them return to the activities that are important to them. Her treatment combines osteopathic manual therapy with practical advice and individualized strategies to support long-term health and function. Outside of the clinic, Franca enjoys practicing yoga, spending time outdoors, and staying active. As a certified yoga teacher, she appreciates the value of movement, body awareness, and lifelong learning, which continue to influence her approach to health and well-being.
