About Kristy McLaren

After completing a Bachelor of Exercise Science in 2004 at The Australian Catholic University, she enjoyed some time working in the fitness industry, before deciding to pursue a more hands-on approach to healthcare.

Prior to returning to Warrnambool Kristy has worked as a Musculoskeletal and Remedial Massage Therapist at various locations throughout Melbourne, in Osteopathic and Physiotherapy clinics, gymnasiums and in the corporate sector. She was also employed as a Clinical Supervisor and Tutor at the Endeavour College of Natural Health.

Musculoskeletal Therapy (MST) is a new and exciting style of manual therapy within the complementary and natural health industry. It requires 3 years of full time study and is the first degree level course of its kind. A consultation will involve a brief assessment of the muscular and skeletal systems which will then form the basis of a specific treatment plan, This will help to restore normal movement and function, increase range of motion, speed up the recovery process from injuries as well as alleviating and preventing pain.
