Bella Buman

I love to be active whenever possible, whether it be at the gym, playing hockey, going paddle boarding with my family or going on a hike with a friend, I am passionate about holistic health care and building a healthy lifestyle.
I was born and raised in Newcastle, growing up near the beach until about the age of 10 when I moved with my family to a small property at Williamtown. Growing up I loved to play all the sports I could, hockey, rugby, water polo, soccer and golf in my backyard!

Clinical Areas of Interest

During my final year of University, I was exposed to a wide range of areas in healthcare. I saw a range of people and presentations in metropolitan and rural regions where I thoroughly enjoyed all settings.

I’m interested in all topics related to chronic pain and treating a wide range of presentations.

favourite approaches to therapy?

My favourite approach to therapy is taking the time to educate clients on their presentation or diagnosis and empowering them holistically to better understand what is going on to lead them down a path of positive change. I love a mixed hands-on therapy and exercise-based approach to promote ongoing self-management.

Favourite thing about your job?

My favourite part about working at RTT is helping a wide range of individuals, whilst being surrounded by such a supportive and knowledgeable team.

Fun Fact!

I once caught a freshwater muscle in a remote village in Fiji, where I was on a volunteer trip with my uni to teach young children about health and wellbeing.
