This World Physiotherapy Day 2025, we’re celebrating the incredible work of our team members who bring movement, independence, and joy into people’s lives every single day. Meet Him Lam, a community physiotherapist whose calm energy and dedication are making a real difference, one home visit, one milestone, and one stretch at a time.

A Journey of Care

Him began his career as a community physiotherapist in Hong Kong, where he developed a strong foundation in client-centered care. Now based in Melbourne, he’s grateful to continue this meaningful work in Australia and is enjoying getting to know the country. Him’s international experience brings a rich cultural perspective to his practice, enhancing the way he connects with clients from all walks of life.

Life on the Road

An average day for Him involves some travel “Melbourne really is a big city, I must say!” he admits. From one location to another, he visits clients in their homes or in the community, tailoring each session to their unique needs.

The flexibility of his role is a major perk and is something that benefits his schedule. “I hate staying in the same place all day, it stresses me out. I love that I get to move around” he shares.

Making a Difference

Him’s motivation comes from the progress he sees in his clients, especially the children. “It’s incredibly rewarding when I can help them learn a new skill or task,” he says.

One moment that stands out is when a young client, who had never been able to kick a soccer ball, managed to do it on their own. “Even though they did it just once, it felt like I was making a meaningful contribution. Moments like these remind me why I chose this career.”

When he’s not helping clients improve their mobility, Him is mastering the art of traditional exercises like Tai Chi and Kenjutsu. “I think I’m pretty good at it,” he laughs. These practices not only reflect his love for movement but also his deep respect for discipline and mindfulness, qualities that shine through in his work.

Celebrating Physios Everywhere

Him’s story is an inspiring reminder of the impact physiotherapists have on both physical health and building overall confidence. This World Physiotherapy Day, we celebrate Him and all the incredible physios who help people live bigger, fuller lives.
