Benjamin Shaw

Bachelor of Applied Science (Physiotherapy) (Honours)

Ben has been helping people move better and feel better for over two decades.

Since graduating in 2001, Ben has worked in some of Sydney’s top hospitals including Westmead, gaining experience in orthopaedic rehab, intensive care, casting, and complex musculoskeletal conditions. He’s also worked with elite athletes in leading sports practices — including NRL teams — so he understands what it takes to get people performing at their best.

Ben has been a key part of the Thrive Physio team since 2009. For over 13 years, he has worked closely with Peter Farmer, developing advanced skills in treating cervicogenic headaches, neck dysfunction, and back pain. He combines expert manual therapy with tailored exercise programs to help you stay pain-free and strong long-term.

Known for his calm, caring approach, Ben has built trusted relationships with GPs and specialists across the Central Coast, ensuring a smooth and coordinated path to recovery when extra medical input is needed.

When he’s not in the clinic, Ben practises what he preaches — enjoying cricket, running, and staying active with his family.
