Tim Bransdon

One of the most influential Podiatrists in Australia today. Tim travels both interstate and internationally, teaching his StrongFeet™ and Running Lab programs to practitioners and coaches

Tim’s resume says he is a Podiatrist ... and he is ... But to Tim his podiatry degree is his ticket to continually explore Human Movement and Performance (including Nutrition, Breathing, Stress and Sleep optimisation).. Strength and Conditioning for Feet and the rest of the body.. and ultimately how to apply this journey of discovery to every client who walks (or hobbles) into his pride and joy, Wollongong Podiatry
