OUR HISTORY
Body Leadership Australia was founded by respected physiotherapist, Paul Trevethan. Paul has worked
as a physiotherapist for more than 16 years and has treated more than 20,000 people, many of who
were injured at work.
Early on in his career, Paul discovered that some of the methods commonly used to treat these injuries
were providing at best, only short term relief from pain. Paul took it upon himself to find a more
effective approach to preventing and treating workplace injuries. He sought out the best
practitioners across Australia to mentor him in the latest innovative techniques coming out of the US
and Europe.
Based on his learnings and experience, Paul developed a philosophy which would not only shape his
practice, but his entire approach to injury prevention and personal wellbeing. This approach is the
foundation of Body Leadership.
