Kieran Spillane
Founder of Trust your body again, Physiotherapist & Wellness Coach
“Hi, I’m Kieran Spillane, the founder of Trust Your Body Again (TYBA) and TYBA Physio. For over 12 years, I’ve helped thousands of clients reconnect with their body’s innate wisdom to overcome pain, recover from injuries, and thrive in a chaotic and overwhelming world.
My journey into this work began with a hard lesson in recovery. As a teenager, I fractured my spine in a mountain bike accident, and the rehabilitation process left me frustrated and disconnected. The focus was on routines that felt impersonal—treating me like a condition rather than a whole person, or at least a teenage boy. That frustration planted the question: What if healing could be more meaningful?
This question followed me into adulthood. When I was diagnosed with ADHD during university, I again faced the feeling of being boxed in by a label. Instead of helping me thrive, the diagnosis felt limiting, reducing my identity to a set of perceived deficits. These experiences could have left me feeling stuck, but they fueled my passion for reimagining health, wellness and recovery. I wanted to build an approach that saw people as more than their injuries or diagnoses—an approach that helped them rediscover their body’s ability to heal and thrive.
Through years of studying neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and psychology, I developed the Trust Your Body Again method, a proven approach refined by delivering 20,000 consultations. This method, the cornerstone of TYBA Physio, helps clients reconnect with their body’s natural healing wisdom, addressing the root causes of stress, pain and injury rather than just treating symptoms.
This philosophy is also at the heart of my book, Trust Your Body Again: 5 Principles to Reconnect with Your Body’s Ancient Wisdom, Relieve Stress, and Thrive in a Chaotic Modern World. In the book, I explore the idea that the stress and discomfort we feel today aren’t personal failures—they result from a mismatch between the fast pace of modern life and the slower, more natural environments in which our bodies evolved to thrive. We can heal and truly flourish by reconnecting with the body’s wisdom that has guided us for tens of thousands of years.
At TYBA Physio, this isn’t just a philosophy—it’s the foundation of everything we do. We guide clients to rediscover their body’s innate wisdom, supporting their recovery journey with personalized care and focusing on lasting relief. Whether overcoming persistent pain, recovering from an injury, or managing stress, I’m here to help.
When I’m not in the clinic, I enjoy life on the Southern Gold Coast with my family. Whether I’m brewing coffee after a morning roll at BJJ, diving into an audiobook, or sharing my knowledge through community workshops, I find joy in connection—both with others and within myself.
My mission is simple: to help you reconnect with your body, heal at the root, and thrive in a world that often pulls us away from our natural balance.
I hope I can be your guide on that journey.
