Miss Rebekah Simone Ponniah is a physiotherapist based in Deer Park, VIC. You can find her at Shop 3 1-5 Canterbury Street, Deer Park VIC 3023. She works with people who want to feel more steady, move better, and get back to their day with less pain or stiffness.
As a physiotherapist, Rebekah focuses on physical therapy exercises to build strength, improve movement, and help the body handle everyday tasks more comfortably. She also uses hands-on treatment such as joint mobilisation and soft tissue massage, which can be helpful when joints feel tight or muscles feel sore from use or strain.
Many people come in because of aches that hang around, or because their movement has changed. At times that might be due to issues with posture, common strains, or day-to-day stiffness that makes walking, standing, or bending harder than it should be. Rebekah helps with posture correction and then backs that up with practical exercise and movement work, so improvements stick.
Gait training is another big part of her work. If you’ve noticed you’re walking differently, feeling unsteady, or getting tired quicker than before, she’ll look at how you move and guide you through steps and exercises to improve your walking pattern. The aim is usually simple: smoother movement, better control, and less strain on the body.
Rebekah also supports patients across different stages of recovery and everyday health goals, from easing back into activity to managing symptoms over time. Her approach stays grounded and practical. Treatment is tailored to what you need, based on what’s going on with your body and how you want things to feel in real life.
