Damian is a fully qualified, registered Melbourne Osteopath who is a member of the Australian Osteopathic Association, & Sports Medicine Australia,

Damian has been practicing for 10 years in Australia, London and Edinburgh and has a special interest in back/neck pain, headache/migraine, sports injuries, and chronic/complex conidtions.  He set up Premier Sports & Spinal Medicine in Melbourne in 2006 with the idea to bring the best musculo-skeletal practitioners all under one roof. Today there are 20 specialist practitioners spread over 3 locations in inner Melbourne.

Damian recognises the rapid pace that medicine changes today and constantly undergoes further training both in Australia and Europe to keep abreast of advances in musculo-skeletal medicine.  He has completed additional post graduate studies in complex pain syndromes, headache/migraine, neurology, clinical pilates, acute/chronic neck and back pain, dry needling and most recently FAKTR.  Damian regularly conducts training for other osteopaths and  physiotherapists in Melbourne.

As a keen athlete himself, Damian enjoys treating elite and recreational athletes and is the osteopath for several professional cricketers and football players, and consults for local sporting clubs. He also enjoys the challenge of helping those with complex or chronic injuries/pain that are often referred to him by other doctors or patients.  He also embraces new technology that enhances the diagnosis and treatment of pain and injury.

Outside of the clinic, Damian enjoys spending his time with his young family, training in martial arts (aikido and muay thai) and pilates.

Damian is available for consultation at the Fitzroy north clinic Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and in Thornbury on Tuesday and Thursday.
