Dan Chang

Physiotherapist + morale booster

Dan Chang is a Taiwanese born, Kiwi Physiotherapist. He graduated Physiotherapy (Honours) from Newcastle University in 2019. During his university days, he worked closely with a number of adolescent sporting teams ranging from soccer to rugby union to AFL. 

After Dan graduated, he spent 3 years working in a private sport's clinic in Tamworth. There, he had a breadth of experience working with the really acute and cranky sporting injuries, the older population for falls prevention, paediatric clients for play-based strength and balance training and people with lower back pain. Dan has completed his Level 1 Sports Physiotherapy and the Upper Quadrant Mulligans Concept course.  

Dan strongly believes that MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE, he uses a combo of manual therapy as well as strength and conditioning to help build stronger, more resilient and more confident humans. He also uses dad jokes as part of his treatment. 

Dan's favourite conditions to treat are:

• ACL rehab and a return to sports

• Acute ankle and knee injury management

• Shoulder dislocation/subluxation rehab

• Sport's strapping  

• General strength and conditioning

In Dan's spare time, you will catch him on the tennis court hitting a few balls into the net, eating dumplings by the dozen, watching LOUD action movies like Top Gun, and doing some heavy squats in the gym. Dan is also the host of his own podcast called "The Flexing Physio" (find me on Spotify, Apple Podcast and Instagram) aimed to help students and new grad physios feel more confident especially in the early stages of their career.

Dan is looking forward to working with you.
