Callum-1.webp?fit=1000%2C1000&ssl=1

A couple of months ago, Callum rejoined us as Team Leader / Business Development Manager, Exercise Physiologist, and Rehabilitation Consultant. Some of you may even remember him from back in 2016, when he was part of the TRS team. After a short break, he couldn’t resist coming back—and we’re so glad he did!

Who is Callum?

When Callum isn’t helping clients achieve their rehabilitation goals, you’ll likely find him spending quality time with his partner, Hayley, and daughter, Billie—or kicking a soccer ball around. Despite having had three ACL reconstructions, Callum still makes time to play, whether that’s on the field or with his family.

A fun fact about Callum: he once wore the green and gold, representing Australia in Futsal! Not many people get that opportunity, and it’s something he’s very proud of.

Callum’s Approach to Life

Callum is a big believer in looking on the bright side of every situation. His resilience and positive outlook shape not only his personal life but also his professional approach. When asked who he’d most like to meet, his answer wasn’t a famous celebrity—it was himself in 10 years’ time, reflecting his commitment to growth and continual improvement.

With over nine years of experience in clinical rehabilitation and occupational health, Callum brings a wealth of knowledge to TRS. He has worked with a wide variety of conditions, including:

  • Mental health challenges

  • Musculoskeletal injuries

  • Neurological conditions

  • PTSD and other complex recovery pathways

He has a proven track record of supporting individuals through difficult rehabilitation journeys, always with the goal of achieving sustainable recovery and safe return-to-work outcomes.

Carlos Success Story with a Client’s Journey to Independence in the Kitchen.
 
For a number of us through, cooking is one of those activities that can be a struggle to execute.
Ever since November, Carlos has been seeing a client who has struggled in the kitchen. But with his help, this client has built their independence around the kitchen and recently independently cooked their first meal!
Having done this has built their confidence to try more recipes in the kitchen. But will always come back to their first and favorite meal they made, carbonara pasta!
Well done Carlos, your hard work and support has paid off! We are very grateful to have you as part of the TRS Team.
