From ACL Injury to Empowering Others: Exercise Physiologist Caitlin Beatty

When exercise physiologist Caitlin Beatty felt a pop in her knee during a game of netball, she knew something was wrong.

I was chasing after a loose ball when it happened. I found out after coming into Joint Vision the next day that I'd ruptured my ACL.

Experiencing the model of care from the other side

What could have been a major setback became a reminder of why Caitlin chose her profession, and why she is interested in helping others through their own recovery. She experienced first-hand how the model worked during her ACL rehabilitation, with imaging, specialists and allied health coordinating.

Thanks to the team, it was a very accelerated approach.

Back on her feet and supporting others in their rehabilitation, Caitlin brings that perspective to her role.

I enjoy the people. I enjoy hearing their stories, individualising their goals, and getting to the crux of the issue.

Confidence and clarity in recovery

For Caitlin, recovery starts with clarity.

When someone comes in, they will be seen, they will have a plan, and they will know exactly what to do moving forward. We also give them realistic timeframes so they're not stuck in that cycle of wondering what to do.

Whether it is a one-on-one session or a group exercise program, the focus is on returning to the activities that matter, safely and sustainably.
