Angelo Licastro (he/him)
MPhysio, BAppSc (Ex&SportSc), DipRM, DipFit

That same philosophy guides his clinical practice, where he blends manual therapy, functional rehab, and education to help clients move better and live with more vitality.
As well as a Master of Physiotherapy from Swinburne University, Angelo holds a Bachelor of Applied Science in Exercise & Sport Science, Holistic Lifestyle Coaching, ASCA Strength & Conditioning, CrossFit, and he’s also a certified Remedial Massage Therapist.
