Hello, I'm Esme Soan!
I am Principal Exercise Physiologist & Women's Health Expert here at Pear, and I love education.
Esme has worked as an Accredited Exercise Physiologist with a Women’s Health speciality as part of multidisciplinary teams, and now both owns & works in her own clinic, Pear Exercise Physiology & Physio in Brisbane.
When she isn’t seeing clients, Esme is the Co-Director of The Women’s Health Collective, where she promotes & teaches allied health education in all aspects of Women’s Health. She is passionate about both learning more, & teaching more in Women's Health space, and feels we need to 'change the face' of women's health to reduce taboos & stigma, and welcome more younger practitioners into the field.
She is also the Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) Women’s Health Media Expert. Through these roles Esme is actively involved in teaching and presenting across Australia with a range of institutions, and has taught in the women’s health and exercise prescription space for ESSA, NSW Health, Sports Medicine Australia, and ACU.
