Dr. Phil Austin BSc (Hons), DO, MSc, PhD
Since graduating as an osteopath in 1997 I have gone on to complete a Masters and a Doctorate in Pain Medicine. I work as an osteopath and research fellow in the field of chronic pain and cancer pain in palliative care. This allows me to combine a broad range of osteopathic techniques and current evidence from ours and others work to give a more integrated approach to health care.
As such, my passion lies in personalised treatment that focuses on manual therapy, exercise prescription and psychosocial education. I am especially interested in the relationship between mood and sleep on the severity and persistence of musculoskeletal and abdominal pain.
I'm also a visiting fellow on the Palliative Care Clinical Studies Collaborative at UTS, a module leader for the Masters program in Clinical Management of Pain at the University of Sydney and am the author of the book; "Chronic Pain: A Resource for Effective Manual Therapy"
