After graduating in 2011, Jacinta worked as a Postgraduate Scholar of Physiology at the Australian Institute of Sport during London Olympic Games. She then moved to work in a clinical field as an exercise physiologist for neurological rehab. Jacinta has 5 years experience working with a variety of conditions including Parkinsons Disease (certified in the LSVT® BIG program), spinal cord injury, muscular dystrophy, acquired brain injury and chronic pain. She thoroughly enjoys using hydrotherapy as an exercise tool and the benefits clients see working in this antigravity environment. Jacinta is skilled at using gym equipment, adaptive technology and clinical pilates to prescribe an exercise program specific to your goals. In particular, Jacinta enjoys seeing the functional improvements and independence gained by many clients as the progress as a result of exercise. She has shared her knowledge and skills by training younger staff members and practicum students. Jacinta currently lectures externally in Exercise prescription for Neurological conditions and Mental health at the University of New England, but is also excited to keep her hands dirty working with clients at LiveWell.
