About Us
Optimum Health exists for one reason: To help our clients optimise their health and well-being, through all stages of life, wherever they call home.
Every day we help improve the health and independence of hundreds of Melbournians. We don’t take the one size fits all approach and love understanding what’s important to our clients, to help them achieve the most out of therapy.
We are a dynamic group of allied health professionals who are passionate about connecting as a team and growing as an organisation. Our clients are really important to us, but so too is building a thriving and supportive culture where people want to come to work, and it’s something we are really proud of. We know when our clinicians are happy, our clients are happy and achieving their optimal health too.
Our rapid growth -- driven by demand for our high-quality services -- means we are on the lookout for a great physio who loves to learn and is ready to take on new challenges each day.
Could this be you?
