"Last week, I had an incredible time presenting at the Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA) Research to Practice Conference. It was a privilege to be invited to speak alongside esteemed colleagues. This was the first year the program hosted a topic dedicated to Occupational Rehabilitation, which is a huge testament to the collective efforts of our industry. Thanks to all who made this possible! #ESSAConference #OccupationalRehab #ExercisePhysiology"
