Hi, I’m Dr. Kieran Richardson!


I work as a Specialist Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist in Australia. I am also the Director of Global Specialist Physiotherapy, a consultancy company providing Formal Mentoring, Second Opinions and Professional Development for physiotherapists and clinics in Australia and internationally.


I have completed my Physiotherapy degree, a post-graduate Masters degree in Physiotherapy and a doctorate-level Fellowship in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy!


I run lectures and workshops to health care professionals nationally in Australia on the topic of ACL tear non-surgical management. I have also overseen 1000's of successful ACL tear-injured patients managed non-surgically, including return to high-level activity and confirmed healed ruptures on repeat MRI scans.



I have created this bundle to help patients better understand their ACL tear treatment options and manage their ACL injury non-surgically.
