Cibele Pinheiro

Cibele is a passionate Physiotherapist who loves the beach, surfing, pilates, yoga and hot weather.

​

Cibele’s approach at Body Flow Physiotherapy in Byron Bay focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of pain by viewing the body as a whole. She specialises in treating back pain, neck pain, as well as  shoulder, hip, knee and ankle injuries, including sports-related conditions through a personalised, holistic lens.

She integrates a wide range of evidence-based physiotherapy techniques to help her clients achieve long-term results. These include dry needling, manual therapy (such as therapeutic massage and joint mobilisation), Clinical Pilates, and DNS (Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization). DNS is a world-renowned technique used by elite athletes, including World Surf League surfers. It is based on developmental motor patterns from infancy and aims to improve core stability, shoulder and hip mobility, diaphragmatic breathing, and functional movement patterns, making it ideal for both rehabilitation and performance enhancement.

Cibele’s treatment philosophy is centred around education and empowerment—helping you understand your body, reduce pain, and move with freedom and confidence. Her goal is to support you in reclaiming your active lifestyle and achieving optimal physical function.

She also utilises the Connect Therapy™ model, a holistic framework that considers the interconnections between different regions of the body and the influence of emotional and social factors on pain. This approach is particularly effective for clients with chronic pain, recurrent injuries, and complex movement dysfunctions.

Whether you’re recovering from injury, dealing with chronic pain, or looking to enhance performance, Body Flow Physiotherapy Byron Bay offers expert, compassionate care tailored to your goals.
