Dr Christa Marlow

Osteopath

Background

Christa is a keen and motivated Osteopath who loves working with and learning from her patients everyday. Being an Osteopath brings new challenges with each case, which Christa has discovered working in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

After studying Osteopathy at Victoria University, Christa graduated in 2013 and has been working as an Osteopath ever since. Her time as a student taught her many things, but most of all, inspired her to be as incredible as those who taught her the craft of Osteopathy.

While completing her degree, Christa worked as a sports trainer with the Knox Falcons Football Club, working with a range of age groups, from under 17’s to the Veteran’s team. Through this work she gained much valued experience assessing an array of injuries and working with coaches, trainers and health professionals.

The human body is an incredible machine, and so many things can go wrong. Christa believes that osteopathy has an important role in helping people to understand how their bodies function, but also how and why they sometimes break down and cause pain.
