Sophia Rood Exercise Physiologist : The Bone Clinic

Dietician

Since graduating with a Bachelor in Nutrition Science and Dietetics in 2019 from Queensland University of Technology, I have assisted people with a wide range of dietary goals; from chronic disease and weight management through to nutrition for older adults with bone health concerns.

Living with chronic disease myself, I understand the physical and biological aspects of compromised health as well as the mental and emotional aspects that often come with it. That insight allows me to support people with chronic disease from a place of understanding and free of judgement. Together we create clear plans to reach goals that are not only supported by evidence but are practical for lifestyles.

The reason I choose to work at The Bone Clinic is the team’s genuine and caring approach to healthcare. In addition to being at the forefront of research, the whole team is genuinely dedicated to helping each client reach their goals. You are never treated like a number here!

Dietitian

Peita Hynes

I graduated in 2004 from QUT with double degree in both nutrition and dietetics and human movement studies. I started working in the health industry as an exercise physiologist for UQ Sport. I have over 14 years experience as a dietitian, working with a range of clients from new mothers to professional athletes to veterans. I have worked in a variety of settings including the Wesley Weight Management Clinic, Queensland Health, Queensland Academy of Sport as well as private practice. I also worked as the Brisbane Lions Football Club’s Sports Dietitian from 2010-2013.

I am mum to a 6 and 4 year old and understand too well how life can get busy and how challenging it can be to keep a consistent healthy, active lifestyle. I use my professional expertise and personal insight to provide individualised advice to help you meet your goals.

Exercise Physiologist

Katy English

I began working at The Bone Clinic in July 2015 having graduated with honours in Clinical Exercise Physiology from QUT. As a mature-aged graduate, with a longstanding interest in health and wellness and passion for evidence-based practice, The Bone Clinic was a perfect match for me. My approach to exercise prescription is strongly influenced by the study of biomechanics – in particular, the influence that physical forces have on our bodies at the cellular level and the power of mechanotransduction in shaping our bodies. While the science may be complex, I promote natural human movement using simple methods that increase body awareness and improve movement patterns. Healthy ageing and natural movement is my passion and I love coaching people in how to move well and develop strength, power, and mobility. I have a particular interest in pelvic floor health and I am passionate about integrating pelvic and musculoskeletal health.

Receptionist

Donna Bunting

My name is Donna Bunting and I am The Bone Clinic’s Receptionist (Front of House).
I have worked at TBC for 3 years now and have watched it grow from strength to strength.
My job entails all contact with clients and practitioners and I love assisting our awesome staff and helping all of our wonderful clientele with any questions they may have. I am very good at communication and my skills are great customer service, good listener, exceptional multi-tasker, and I have a very high standard in organisational skills. In my role as Front of House you need to always have a happy and welcoming smile and to help people relax and feel comfortable as it can be a very daunting task coming for your initial assessment and I hope I can achieve this goal for everyone. I can at times try for perfection but in my role that can’t always happen. I have always been a Receptionist and love it as I think that is my main strength and I am good at it.
