About The Pocket Physio

Welcome to The Pocket Physio — a space where physiotherapy meets lifestyle medicine.

I’m Cathy Tuckey, a physiotherapist with over 20 years of experience helping people recover from injury, build resilience, and move with confidence. Over time, I’ve come to see that true wellness doesn’t come from chasing symptoms once they appear. It comes from integrating physiotherapy with lifestyle medicine — combining movement, recovery, sleep, and stress management to build health that lasts.

That belief inspired me to create The Pocket Physio — a space to share evidence-based insights, practical strategies, and a holistic approach to health. My goal is to make physiotherapy not just about treatment, but about preventing problems, supporting life’s transitions, and helping people feel stronger and more resilient every day.

This platform reflects my passion for integrative physiotherapy in Perth — an approach that moves beyond quick fixes to look at the bigger picture of health. Everything I share is grounded in clinical experience and the latest research, with a focus on practical strategies you can apply to daily life.

Whether it’s navigating perimenopause, preventing injuries, or understanding how lifestyle factors affect recovery, my aim is to make physiotherapy more proactive, holistic, and accessible.

Think of The Pocket Physio as your guide to long-term wellbeing — where physiotherapy goes beyond treatment and becomes part of living well.
