About Me

Led with compassion, guided by science

Hi! I'm Mairead Lucy, founder and principal physiotherapist of Pelican Health Pty Ltd.

This business is built on a whole lot of heart and a lifelong mission to empower people to live a life of joy and movement.

Growing up on the shores of Lake Hume, I used to marvel at the strength and grace of the local pelicans while pounding the dirt in pursuit of my girlhood Olympic Marathon dreams.

I harness over 9 years of clinical experience, postgraduate development in pelvic, women's, sports and spinal health to get you recovered smarter, not harder. As a mum to 3 kids and partner of a Paralympic Medalist, I understand firsthand the juggle of keeping active and managing recovery while life hurtles us along.

Whether you're dealing with spinal pain, sports injuries, preparing for birth, or managing a niggle, my goal is to help you get answers, feel empowered, and start seeing real progress so you can get back to living and loving what this world has to offer.

Thank you for supporting a local, woman-led business.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to book a physiotherapy session?

No referral is needed to book an appointment—physiotherapists are first-contact practitioners. If your doctor or specialist has referred you, we’ll happily work in partnership with them. Some clients are eligible for Medicare rebates under a team care arrangement; find more about that here:

My Medicare Rebate Options

What should I expect during my first visit?

You’ll receive a thorough assessment, diagnosis, and treatment plan tailored to your goals. We explain what’s going on and why, provide hands-on care if needed and guide you with an individualised exercise program through PhysiApp.

Are your services safe during pregnancy?

Yes—pelvic health and pregnancy care are core areas of expertise at Pelican Health. Staff providing these services have undergone extensive post graduate training. All assessments and treatments are evidence-based, gentle and adapted to each stage of pregnancy or health condition. Your comfort, safety and confidence come first.

What do I need to know before a pelvic health assessment?

Your safety, comfort, and consent are our priority. Internal exams may be indicated to help assess pelvic floor function but are always optional. We’ll explain clearly, offer choices, and only proceed with your full consent—you’re in control throughout.

We routinely screen all clients for past abuse, acknowledging its lasting impact on health so we can tailor care sensitively.

If you’re a survivor of sexual abuse and need support, call 1800RESPECT (1800 737 732), a free 24/7 national service.

At Pelican Health, we deliver healthcare that is respectful, empowering and always on your terms.

What should I wear to physiotherapy?

Wear something comfy and easy to move in—loose clothing or activewear works well. Layers or shorts rather than tight leggings can help if we need access to specific areas like your back or knee, always with your consent.

Your safety, privacy, and comfort are our priority. We’ll explain everything clearly and check in often—you’re in control.

For classes: wear what feels good to move in, with non-slip shoes recommended.

We’re here to help you move freely and feel good doing it—Pelican style.
