Senior Physiotherapist (Psychologically Informed Care)

Antony Lung is a senior physiotherapist with a strong interest in sports, nutrition, and whole-person health. He takes a psychologically informed, client-centred approach, helping people not only recover from injury, but understand their pain and build long-term confidence in their body.

Antony graduated with a Bachelor of Exercise and Nutrition Science from The University of Queensland in 2014, followed by a Master of Physiotherapy Studies in 2016. He is an AHPRA-registered Physiotherapist (Registration No. PHY0002073303) and a member of the Australian Physiotherapy Association.

Chronic Pain & Education Work

Alongside his clinical role, Antony is the founder of NxHLife, an evidence-informed education and coaching platform dedicated to helping people better understand persistent pain and regain control of their lives.

Through NxHLife, Antony develops educational resources and programs that translate modern pain science, physiotherapy, and behavioural health into clear, practical strategies for people living with ongoing pain. This work supports and complements his clinical practice by ensuring his care reflects the latest research, best practice frameworks, and whole-person models of recovery.

Patients working with Antony benefit from this integrated perspective — where hands-on physiotherapy, movement, education, and self-management strategies work together.

Why Antony Specialises in Chronic Pain

Persistent pain is rarely caused by one structure or one injury alone. Over time, the nervous system, movement patterns, stress, beliefs, and lifestyle factors all play a role.

Antony has a strong clinical interest in chronic and persistent pain because he has seen how confusing and discouraging the journey can be for people who have “tried everything.” His approach focuses on helping clients understand why their pain persists and guiding them through evidence-based strategies that restore movement, confidence, and quality of life.

By combining hands-on physiotherapy with education, movement retraining, and psychologically informed care, Antony supports people to move forward safely and sustainably.

Beyond the Clinic

Antony is an active athlete who plays golf (lowest handicap: scratch), tennis, basketball, and soccer, and enjoys running, sprinting, swimming, rock climbing, and parkour. This firsthand experience helps him understand the physical and mental demands of sport, allowing him to support athletes in recovery, injury prevention, and performance.
