Gemma Hepburn

Paediatric Physiotherapist

My name is Gemma and I am pleased to introduce you to Sprout, my new business which offers paediatric hysiotherapy to infants across Adelaide.

I have 13 years experience working with children of all ages, however, have specialised in working with infants and pre school aged children. I am genuinely very passionate about supporting little ones and their families to receive early intervention.

As a mother of 2 myself, I get what it’s like to be a busy parent. I aim to make clients feel as relaxed as possible whilst also providing expert knowledge with effective results.

My availability includes Tuesday mornings and community-based sessions on Thursdays and Fridays.

I would love to help your clients and welcome any opportunity to have a chat to

determine suitability anytime.
