Dr. Brittany Holub (Osteopath)
Brittany’s interest in osteopathy began in her younger years from competitive horse riding and the many aches and pains that came with it. Through this and her passion of helping people achieve their best in life, she was drawn to the holistic approach that osteopathy encompasses.
Brittany treats clients of varying ages and complaints, although she has an interest in women’s and pelvic health. Brittany completed her masters project on the effectiveness of osteopathic treatment for pre-natal patients and this information has been useful in her practice.
Prior to Osteopathy, Brittany completed a Bachelor of Nutrition and Exercise science which has provided her with extensive knowledge that can be incorporated into management plans. Her consults focus on the multiple aspects of health and how the interplay between each can impact one’s well-being.
Aside from Osteopathy, Brittany enjoys keeping active through running, swimming and walking with friends. She has decided to move back to Phillip Island part time after growing up here and enjoy the many beauties the island has to offer.
