About Us – A Pinch of Prevention

physiotherapist mt gravatt peter missingham

Hello and welcome to A Pinch of Prevention. I’m Peter Missingham, the co-founder of this comprehensive health haven in the heart of Mount Gravatt. 

From my days as an elite sprinter to my current role as a devoted physiotherapist and acupuncturist, my path in healthcare has led me to establish a place where prevention is just as crucial as treatment. 

At A Pinch of Prevention, our philosophy centres on comprehensive, client-focused care. This ethos is the foundation of our practice, ensuring we treat not just the symptoms but the entire person. Alongside me, I am proud to have Johanna Kohn and Naomi Hester, two professionals who share my passion for holistic health. 

My Approach – A Unique Blend of Skills  As a physiotherapist and acupuncturist, I offer a unique combination of skills to our clinic. My approach is straightforward yet effective: efficient treatment and enduring prevention. The 4-step process I’ve developed – Release, Re-educate, Reinforce, Retain – reflects my commitment to not only treating your ailments but also teaching you how to maintain your newfound health. My philosophy focuses on treating you in as few sessions as necessary, respecting both your health and your time.
