Masters in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy (Curtin, Australia)

Adele is a registered physiotherapist in 1995 (with over 28 years of clinical physiotherapy experience).

She has experience in treating national athletes as well as recreational athletes having worked in Singapore Sports Council and Singapore Sports Medicine Centre.

She is currently an adjunct lecturer for the Graduate Diploma in Sports Medicine at Nanyang Technological University, and she was previously a lecturer for the Diploma Physiotherapy Course at the Nanyang Polytechnic.

Adele believes that pain is a highly personal and individualized experience, and hence understanding and validating the person having the pain experience is an extremely important part of recovery and healing.

She strongly believes in patients being empowered and having more confidence and trust in their bodies and themselves as part of the recovery process.

Having experienced migraines herself for years following a whiplash injury, as well as recovering from hip injuries sustained from running, she has experienced first hand the importance of physiotherapy and rehabilitation, in helping her recovery. 

Adele is an advocate for strength training for women, and believes everyone, especially the elderly, would benefit from strength training. Though she prefers running, she has personally experienced the benefits of strength training on her physical and mental well-being.

Adele is also trained in Polestar Pilates and has benefited from it, having had scoliosis since her teenage years.

In her free time, Adele enjoys

• Meeting up with family and friends to “makan” (eat)
• Reading, baking and watching movies
