Don’t just search “physio near me.” Find the one who will actually change your life.

In a world of convenience, it's easy to pick the clinic closest to home. But when you're dealing with chronic pain, injury, or a body that feels stuck — location shouldn't be the only filter.

The right physiotherapist won’t just “rub the sore spot” or give you a sheet of exercises and send you on your way. They’ll listen deeply. They’ll assess everything — not just where it hurts, but why it’s happening. They’ll help you understand your body, break the cycle, and rebuild strength and confidence from the inside out.

👉 So ask yourself:

Are you getting quick fixes or long-term solutions?
Are you feeling truly seen and supported?
Is your treatment plan tailored to you, or just standard protocol?
There’s a big difference between “any physio” and the right physio.

Choose someone who’s not just close… but aligned.

What Most Clients Get Wrong (And How to Get It Right)
— from a physiotherapist who’s seen it time and time again.

Here’s a pattern I see far too often:

✅ You book an appointment.
✅ You get assessed.
✅ We start treatment.
❌ You feel better… and then you stop coming.

I understand why.
Pain relief is motivating — but once the discomfort fades, so does the urgency.
You feel 70% better and think, “That’ll do.”

But here’s the truth:
Relief isn’t the same as recovery.

Most people stop too soon.
They exit the process before:

The root issue is corrected
Load tolerance is rebuilt
Strength, mobility, and function are restored
Long-term resilience is developed
And what happens next?
The pain returns. The cycle repeats.

If you want sustainable outcomes — not just temporary relief — you have to commit beyond the point where it stops hurting.

This isn’t about more sessions. It’s about completing the process.
Your body will thank you in five years, not five days.

If you're ready to move past symptom-chasing and actually rebuild from the ground up — we’re here for that.

Sometimes… no routine is the best routine.
⁣
I’m all for structure. Rituals. Purpose.
But not when they start making you feel like you’re failing.
⁣
We commit to all the things:
✨ 5am wake-ups
✨ Journaling before sunrise
✨ Movement
✨meditation
✨supplements
✨breathwork
✨meal prep
✨dry brushing....all before 9am
⁣
And then… we feel guilty when we don’t tick every box.
⁣
Here’s the truth:
If your routine adds more stress to your life, it’s not serving you.⁣
⁣
Journaling in the morning might sound beautiful.
But if you’re wrangling 3 kids out the door, it’s just another stressor.⁣
⁣
For me?
I’ve learned not to force things that don’t fit my life.
I don’t work out at 5am. I’ve got a little one in my bed who gets upset if I leave.
So instead, once all the kids are dropped off — that’s my time. That’s when I run, train, breathe.
It’s quiet. Peaceful. And it works.
⁣
I believe in routines.
But I also believe in flexible ideals that mould to the day you’re actually living — not the fantasy one you saw on Instagram.⁣
⁣
Be honest about what season you’re in.
Set yourself up to succeed, not shame yourself for falling short.⁣
⁣
💛 Create a lifestyle that meets you where you are.
Not where you think you should be.
⁣
✨ What routines or health “hacks” are you forcing… that might not actually be working for you?

Let’s talk about it — drop them in the comments.

Meet Leanne — the heart and soul of our front desk (and often the first smile you see when you walk through our doors). 💛

Originally from the UK, Leanne moved to Perth 23 years ago and fell in love with this beautiful country — and it’s safe to say, Perth is lucky to have her.

With a background in hairdressing, beauty therapy, makeup artistry, and years of managing high-performing salon and spa businesses, Leanne has always had a gift for making people feel seen, cared for, and completely at ease.

It was her curiosity for holistic living — paired with her deep love of people — that led her to us at Effortless Superhuman. And we’re so glad it did.

Leanne isn’t just our receptionist. She’s the glue that holds the day together. She’s reliable, open, grounded, and full of life. Whether she’s greeting clients, managing the schedule, or reminding us to drink more water — she does it all with kindness, joy, and a fierce dedication to the people around her.

She lives what we teach: balance, connection, vitality. She’s always outdoors, exploring events around Perth, catching sunsets at the beach, and living life with a beautiful blend of fun and rest. Her family and friends are her world, and she pours so much love and presence into her relationships — it shows in everything she does.

Leanne is more than just part of the team — she is part of the reason this place feels like home. 💫

If you’ve ever been greeted by her warm smile or calming presence, you know exactly what we mean.

Leave her some love below 👇
She deserves it.

Hi, I’m Max — co-founder of Effortless Superhuman, business manager, mum of three, ocean lover, and passionate advocate for real, grounded health.
⁣
My career began in executive recruitment — placing top talent into senior roles within the mining industry. I loved listening to people, understanding what made a workplace feel aligned, and helping others find their fit.⁣
⁣
But everything changed when we started our family. I wanted a different rhythm. So my husband Steve and I ...(I think you know him ;).. we built The Body Genius Institute and then Effortless Superhuman — a holistic clinic designed to help people heal deeply and live fully.⁣
⁣
He’s the clinician. I run everything behind the scenes — social media, marketing, finance, payroll, brand messaging, client communication, systems, and operations. If it doesn’t involve hands-on treatment, I’m probably the one doing it.⁣
⁣
In 2020, life threw me the ultimate curveball: a cancer diagnosis. That experience cracked me open. I dove into the world of healing, detoxification, and natural health — not because it was trendy, but because it was essential.⁣
⁣
I studied hard, became a certified detox specialist, and even started coaching others. I loved helping people — but with three young kids and my own healing still unfolding, I stepped away from formal coaching.⁣
⁣
Now, I share what I’ve learned through our business and with our community — no pressure, no perfection, just real insight and honest support.⁣
⁣
I love long open water swims, gym and sauna, a good book and a warm drink, deep conversations, and finding joy in simple things — a sunset, dancing around my kitchen or a fun boardgame with friends.
⁣
I believe health isn’t a destination — it’s a relationship with yourself. And I believe business can be built with heart, integrity, and intention.⁣
⁣
💛 If you’re into holistic healing, honest conversations, and living well — stick around. There’s space for you here.⁣

GLP-1s explained — the science, the risks, and the bigger picture.

You’ve probably heard of Ozempic or Wegovy by now.
Originally designed for type 2 diabetes, these injections are now being used widely for weight loss — and it’s sparking a lot of conversation.

But are we asking the right questions?

💭 What are the long-term effects?
💭 Are we treating symptoms instead of causes?
💭 And how do we support people in a way that’s actually sustainable?

In our latest blog, we take a balanced look at this growing trend — what the research shows, what it doesn’t, and why health is about more than a number on the scale.

📖 Read it here: https://www.effortlesssuperhuman.com.au/glp-1-medications-and-weight-management-a-cultural-shift-worth-understanding/

Whether you’re considering medication or just curious about what’s behind the hype — this one’s worth a read.

🔁 Feel free to share this with someone navigating their own health or weight journey.
💬 And we’d love to hear your thoughts:

Do you think GLP-1s are helpful tools, or are we missing the bigger picture?

GLP-1 meds offer weight support for some, but lasting health comes from understanding your body and choosing care that fits your unique needs.

The man behind Effortless Superhuman .... If you’ve met Steve, you’ll know — he’s not loud, he’s not flashy, and he’s not trying to sell you anything.

He’s quietly dedicated. Focused. Someone who genuinely wants to help you heal.

Born in Kitchener, Ontario, Steve grew up immersed in sport — ice hockey, baseball, powerlifting, and track. He was a national-level athlete, a committed student, and someone who’s always been deeply driven by performance, health, and discipline.

He moved to Perth in his 20s to study physiotherapy, and since then, he's built an incredible body of work — from founding the Body Genius Institute to co-creating Effortless Superhuman with me, his wife Max.

Steve has authored five books, lectured for the Australian Institute of Fitness, and worked with thousands of clients — but what people don’t often see is the day-to-day dedication that makes it all possible.

He’s up at 4:30am every morning preparing for clients, researching, writing, and refining his systems. He trains four times a week — not for vanity, but for clarity. The gym is where he reflects. Recharges. And shows up for himself in the same way he shows up for others.

At home, Steve is a devoted husband and father of three. He’s currently coaching our son Ryder’s soccer team — two nights a week and every Sunday — and still makes time for beach walks, picnics, and watching the sunset when we can. He loves a quiet game of cribbage, movie nights, and those evenings when we’re all around the table sharing a meal. Sometimes you’ll find him sitting and colouring in with the kids while everyone talks around him — present, calm, and completely content just being with his family.

Steve is softly spoken, deeply generous, and quietly intense. He has strong opinions and shares them with honesty, integrity, and care. He’s always learning, always growing — and never content with surface-level solutions.

Effortless Superhuman is an extension of who he is.

If you’ve worked with Steve, you’ve likely felt it — his precision, his presence, and the sense that you’re finally in the right hands.

We’re proud of what we’ve built.
But more than anything, I’m proud of him.

"I’ve tried everything — and nothing works."

We hear this all the time from clients who’ve been to multiple clinics but are still in pain.

Because the problem isn’t always where it hurts. It’s why it hurts.
At Effortless Superhuman, we look deeper — at your stress load, nervous system, biomechanics, movement patterns, breathing, sleep, even gut health.

Pain is rarely just a physical issue. And true healing only happens when we treat the whole person.

If you're ready to stop guessing and finally get to the root of it, we’re here to help.

🌿 What it is:
A simple, nutrient-rich breakfast of poached eggs, avocado, asparagus, truss tomatoes, and greens. No powders. No processed cereals. Just real, whole food.

🥑 Why it works:
This plate is full of protein, healthy fats, fibre, and antioxidants—everything your body needs to stabilise blood sugar, support brain function, and fuel your morning without a crash.

🍳 The truth about breakfast:
Your first meal doesn’t just fill your stomach—it sets your hormonal rhythm, energy curve, and nervous system tone for the whole day. Skipping or choosing processed foods? That’s a fast track to cravings, fatigue, and irritability by mid-morning.

Starting the day with real food sends a powerful signal to your body:
I’m nourished. I’m safe. I’m ready.

What’s your go-to breakfast when you want to feel steady, clear, and energised?
We’d love to hear what works for you 👇

🧄✨ One of our favourite immune-boosting remedies this winter: raw garlic soaked in honey.

When anyone in our house starts to feel rundown, this is our go-to.
It’s simple, powerful, and backed by centuries of traditional use.

We crush 5 cloves of raw garlic, let it sit for 15 minutes to activate the allicin (the compound responsible for its immune-boosting effects), then soak it in raw honey.
We take 1 tsp a few times a day—straight off the spoon or stirred into warm water.

💥 Garlic is a natural antibacterial, antiviral, and immune-modulating powerhouse.
🍯 Honey soothes the throat, supports immune health, and helps make the garlic a bit more… well, palatable.

Not a cure-all—but definitely a support act your body will thank you for.

👇 We’d love to know… what’s your go-to winter remedy?
Let’s share what works and keep our families well this season.
