Be Free to Do The Work You Love.
At Freedom Sports Medicine, we exist for one reason: To help people be free to do what they love.
Freedom Sports Medicine was built from lived experience, shared values, and a clear belief: people don’t just need pain relief – they need a clear path forward.
Free to Move.
Free to Heal.
Free to Connect.
We are not just another private practice clinic. We are a purpose-led physiotherapy team built on structure, mastery, and heart.
With 500+ five-star Google reviews and multiple industry awards, we’ve earned a reputation for clinical excellence – but what truly sets us apart is how we deliver it.
Founded on Vision + Built on Architecture
Freedom was founded by APA-Titled Sports & Exercise Physiotherapist Ross Kinsella – known for decisive, heart-led clinical care and exceptional outcomes.
Co-led by Sophia Rovira – educator, strategist, and architect of The Freedom Method™ – the clinic has evolved into a high-performance environment grounded in: Joy, Courage, Service & Connection.
Together, we are building more than a clinic.
We are building a new standard.
How we operate
Today, Freedom operates through a dual-leadership approach. Ross leads from the treatment room with decisive, heart-led care, while Sophia provides the strategy and structure that holds the entire journey together.
And quietly observing it all is our unofficial mascot, Jesse – reminding us daily why freedom matters.
Guided by the values of joy, courage, service, and connection, the Freedom Method™ leads clients through three clear phases:
- Fight the Pain (relief and calm movement)
- Fix the Foundations (stability, support, and capacity)
- Future-Proof (strength, resilience, and a framework for real life)
This shared model means clients aren’t treated appointment by appointment – they can see the map, understand the purpose of each phase, and track their progress over time.
The same framework also unites the team, creating clarity, consistency, and collective ownership – because when everyone works from the same model, together we achieve more.
The team that makes it possible....

Sophia is the CEO of Freedom Sports Medicine and the strategic architect behind its evolution into a structured, values-led shared model of care. She holds responsibility for clinic strategy, brand direction, growth, systems, and long-term viability – ensuring the clinic works together as a coherent, enduring whole.

For Physios Who Care About Outcomes
At Freedom, physiotherapy isn’t just about relieving pain in the moment.
It’s about guiding people through a structured journey toward long-term change.
If you care about outcomes, relationships, and professional progression – read on.
The Friction You’ve Probably Felt
You care deeply.
You engage.
You inspire.
You feel energised when clients commit.
But without structure, even strong clinicians end up:
-
carrying treatment plans mentally
-
re-convincing direction session by session
-
watching clients drop-off once pain settles
-
finishing days mentally full
Not because you lack skill.
Because structure determines whether care compounds.
The New Standard
At Freedom, we don’t practise appointment-to-appointment.
We lead structured journeys.
Fight Pain → Fix Foundations → Future-Proof
This creates:
<1% self-discharge
Strong client commitment
Lasting outcomes
Sustainable energy
The system holds the micro-decisions.
You bring the relational leadership, trust, and direction.
That’s how care compounds.
What It Feels Like Here
We are deeply relational – and deeply accountable.
We build trust.
We hold direction.
We follow through.
Clients commit to 12-week progressions.
Standards are shared.
Wins are collective.
There is no quiet competition.
Excellence is encouraged.
Growth is safe.
Success is celebrated.
It feels mature.
Professional.
Forward-moving.
Who Thrives Here
You’ll thrive here if you:
-
already hold yourself to a high standard
-
follow through without being chased
-
communicate clearly
-
value feedback
-
want to keep improving
-
believe collaboration strengthens care
-
want to build something – not just consume it
We don’t need perfection.
We need ownership, maturity and care.
What This Role Offers
4-day clinical week
No weekends
No late nights (never past 7pm)
Client-free Fridays for a day of collaboration & refinement
Purpose-built designer space
Structured progression pathways
Strong earning capacity
This isn’t hustle culture.
It’s intelligent structure.
High standards.
Clear systems.
Sustainable excellence.
Not For You If
You prefer working in isolation.
You resist shared standards.
You need chasing.
You want flexibility without responsibility.
We protect our culture carefully.
