Mr Christian Cologna

Christian is a dedicated physiotherapist holding a Bachelor of Applied Movement Science and Master of Physiotherapy from Victoria University. His passion for the field began in high school following a significant injury, which required extensive rehabilitation supported by multiple physiotherapists. This experience ignited a lasting interest in human anatomy, rehabilitation, and empowering others to reach their full potential after a setback in their lives.

Christian enjoys working with individuals from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of acute and chronic injuries. He follows a goal-centred approach which utilises strong clinical knowledge, skills and outcomes in a highly collaborative setting with his patients. Christian utilises a range of hands-on techniques while having a focus on exercise-based treatments to ensure his patients incorporate the most effective forms of treatment in their rehabilitation.

Christian has worked closely with the Victoria University physiotherapy team in undertaking AFL and AFLW biomechanics research, assessing injury and performance factors that guide rehabilitation in an elite setting. He also has experience working with Avondale FC junior teams and currently works in Big V Men’s basketball.
