MSK / Sports Physiotherapist (with special interest in running)

This is not a typical private practice physio role.

At Acland Street Physiotherapy, you will have the opportunity to build your own clinical niche, grow a loyal patient base, and develop your professional reputation inside an established, highly rated, founder-led clinic.

We are a relaxed, boutique St Kilda clinic with strong family-oriented values: trust, flexibility, loyalty, respect and genuinely looking after each other.

We are not a KPI-driven clinic. We are patient experience-focused and genuinely care about quality, trust, communication, outcomes and long-term relationships.

Through Melbourne Running Clinic, we are building a dedicated running injury and performance arm for runners, athletes and active people across St Kilda, Prahran and South Yarra.

We are looking for a physio who wants to serve the local community, build a trusted local reputation, and become known for delivering high-quality care in their chosen niche.

We are also investing heavily in a state-of-the-art gym and running assessment technology, alongside AI-enabled workflows through CliniScribe, to support high-quality care, rehab and performance.
