Physiotherapy services for you to move with confidence

We’re a Melbourne physio clinic transforming how people in larger bodies experience healthcare. From our Carlton North clinic, we’ve created a space where you’re seen, heard and respected – exactly as you are.
Physiotherapist Nadia provides online physio consultation for exercise habit formation and getting started with exercise via telehealth.

We make movement feel safe and empowering for people in larger bodies

We understand that traditional healthcare spaces haven’t always felt welcoming or suitable for larger bodies. That’s why we’ve created a space where inclusion is the foundation of everything we do.

Founded by physiotherapist Nadia Walton, a recognised leader in size-inclusive and weight-neutral care, and inspired by the individuality of Melbourne’s laneways, Laneways is committed to helping you feel seen, heard and respected.

When you work with us, you’ll find:

  • Expert care that considers your whole story
  • Equipment and spaces designed for comfort
  • Support that focuses on your personal goals
  • Understanding of the challenges and strengths that come with living in a larger body

Hi, I’m Nadia Walton

She/Her | Founder of Laneways Melbourne, Physiotherapist & Bariatric Care Consultant

As one of Melbourne’s leading physiotherapists for size-inclusive care, I’ve helped hundreds of clients across Australia find movement that feels good for their bodies.

I’ve worked in both public and private healthcare for the past decade, helping individuals living in larger bodies manage pain, find confidence in movement, and build sustainable habits. I understand the unique challenges of navigating healthcare in a larger body, and I’m here to make it easier, safer, and empowering for you.

Whether returning to movement, managing a condition, or seeking support as you build new exercise habits, I’m here to support your journey, your goals, and your body exactly as it is.
