Hi! My name is Alex Hammond.
I come from a small town called Terang in Southern Victoria, but have lived in a few places up and down the East Coast of Australia since leaving there at a young age.
I first started my university education in a Bachelor of Arts at Griffith University on the Gold Coast, but after one year I transferred into a Bachelor of Clinical Sciences at Southern Cross University in Lismore. I graduated from SCU in 2018 with a Master of Osteopathic Medicine then moved to Newcastle, where I continued my Bachelor of Arts at the University of Newcastle. I completed the Bachelor of Arts with a double major in creative writing and linguistics in 2023, and am in the process of applying for medicine.
I have a keen interest in the function of the human body and love combat sports/martial arts like Brazilian jiu jitsu and mixed martial arts, as well as Winter sports like snowboarding.
I originally came to The Movement Improvement Clinic as a patient after a severe shoulder injury, and consequently became a big believer in its methods. I bought MIC in 2022 because I love the space and equipment it provides for our patients, and it allows me to fully utilise my knowledge and skills to accommodate for each patient’s needs.
