About

Ms. Kate Cowlishaw is a highly experienced physiotherapist who graduated with honours from the University of Melbourne School of Physiotherapy in 1997. Her expertise lies in designing individualised exercise programs tailored to specific needs, with a focus on helping children build their physical confidence and abilities.
At Offspring Child Health Specialists, Kate assesses children aged 4 to 12, evaluating their strength, coordination, balance, and motor planning. She believes that every child can enjoy and participate in exercise and sports, recognising that some may need additional support to reach their potential.
Kate collaborates closely with children and their parents to set achievable goals and creates customised exercise programs to address identified areas of need. She also offers the option to write detailed reports to assist families in applying for NDIS funding.
Her services include guided exercise sessions conducted in the clinic, complemented by home exercises for children to practise between appointments. Additionally, Kate offers outdoor sessions at pre-arranged locations to develop skills like running, bike riding, or other sport-specific activities requiring larger spaces. Her sessions are designed to be engaging and enjoyable, ensuring children develop not only their physical abilities but also their confidence in their own potential.

“Evidence-based care tailored to each patient — taking the time to explain options and shared decisions.”
