About the Company

I have always had a dream to one day expand my team and my practice into a complete wellness and sport performance hub, offering world-class technology together with educators and practitioners in all aspects relating to health, wellness, recovery, rehabilitation, sport performance and longevity.

That dream was set into motion years ago but was paused when I needed to first find safety and a better life for myself and my family and migrated to Australia in 2018. Fast forward a few years, and it was time to re-ignite my dream and my passion.

The name ‘Rise Beyond Health’ is my aspiration and vision for my community to become educated and empowered to take ownership of their health and their choices, creating a space and a means for people to Rise Beyond their obstacles to higher highs, making people come to terms with, believe, and accept, that they are worthy of a happy, healthy, and long life, and the more people I can touch and help, the more people they in turn can touch and change, and in doing so, produce a continued ripple effect within my community, creating that future where our children’s children will still be enjoying the benefits.

More and more will be added to ‘Rise Beyond Health’s’ story and to the service list, as the actual story and dream unfold…so please check in regularly and make sure you are on our mailing list for all the updates and expansions to come.
