Welcome to Vive
Our mission is simple: improve the lives of people suffering from persisting pain, fatigue, and invisible illness.
We provide compassionate, online support direct to you, anywhere in Australia.
If you live with pain, fatigue, or invisible illness, every day can be exhausting.
Even basic tasks can require a delicate balancing act, and you might feel like you’re being pulled further and further away from the people you love and the activities that fill you with joy and purpose: the things that make you, you. You’re working unbelievably hard just to survive, but that’s all you’re doing… surviving, not really living.
Worse still, it can seem like no one understands what you’re going through, or appreciates what your symptoms have cost you. Finding support feels impossible, and even if you knew where to turn for advice or information that might help you, you probably feel so overwhelmed by the complexity of your symptoms that actually putting it into practice feels overwhelming - where would you even start?
How would it feel to have someone in your corner…
Someone who “gets it” and genuinely wants to see you thrive?
Someone with expertise in pain, fatigue and invisible illness, but also recognises your expertise in you?
At Vive, we take a compassionate, holistic approach to care, tailored to your unique needs. We will be there every step of the way, helping to shoulder the challenges but also celebrating your wins. We support you to navigate a path forward, and reconnect with life again.
Our Areas of Expertise
We provide integrative physiotherapy services to anyone experiencing persisting pain or fatigue, but have particular interest in treating:
Myalgic Encephalomyelitis / Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS)
Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)
Long COVID/Post-Viral Syndromes
Fibromyalgia (FMS)
Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders & Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (HSD/hEDS)
Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)
Autoimmune Conditions
We understand that often, the challenge is not in knowing, it’s in the doing.
If you live with pain, fatigue or invisible illness, you might likely know more about your condition than most health professionals, having sought out any information you can get your hands on. You’ve had no choice - what other option do you have if everyone seems at a loss to help, has ignored or dismissed your symptoms, or even suggested it must be “all in your head”?
But knowing the information is only one part of the equation - it’s harder still to figure out how to put it in practice in a way that works for you. In theory, you know a lot of things you could try to improve your health and well-being, but when you’re already exhausted and your situation is complex, it can get overwhelming and you might not know where to start.
We get it. At Vive, we don’t believe in a “one size fits all” approach. That’s why we take the time to listen, to understand the big picture of your life and the challenges you’re facing, your values and goals, and where you want to be. We marry up our expertise in pain, fatigue & invisible illness with your expertise in you, so together we can find the most effective way forward and help you to reconnect with life. And should you get thrown a curveball, we’ll be there to help you rethink, adapt and get back on track.
Get Social.
