Zachary Cronk

Director / Physiotherapist

Since a young age, I can remember always wanting to help people. When I started looking into what career I wanted to pursue, I realised that Physiotherapy provided me with the perfect opportunity to help people for a living. What I love about being a physiotherapist is being able to empower people by taking complex problems or concepts and explaining them in a way that makes sense. I enjoy explaining how pain works, identifying with people how an injury may have occurred, and the next steps to rehabbing their injury and getting back to doing what they love!

I first completed a Diploma of Remedial massage, then went on to complete a Bachelor of Exercise and Nutrition and Masters of Physiotherapy Studies at UQ.

I love the variety of private practice and enjoy treating all conditions, from low back pain, neck pains, shoulders, knees, hips, ankles, elbows, wrists.. Everything!

I have a special interest in treating vestibular conditions like vertigo (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo or BPPV, Vestibular deconditioning), and headaches (migraine, cervicogenic and tension-type).

Outside of the clinic I enjoy camping, going for a hike, rock climbing or spending time with my family.

That is a tough question! I'd have to say my favourite book is 'Radical Candor' by Kim Scott. I found it hugely impactful on how to communicate better! Would highly recommend it!

What is your favourite quote?

I first heard this from a close friend of mine, who used to pastor the church that I was going to. It's simply: “Always assume the best”.

You never know the kind of day someone has had and you never know how far a smile or a little grace can go!
