Prior to studying osteopathy, he began his career in holistic health in 1995 gaining qualifications in both Remedial Massage and Myofascial Release and worked as a massage therapist for seven years. Mark is continually inspired by the applications of osteopathy. "What I have learnt during my time is that the body truly does have a strong capacity and drive to maximise its health and recover from physical strain, pain and illness, I feel that osteopathy is a modality that naturally supports this inherent process".

As an osteopath, Mark is honoured to work with a diverse range of people with a diverse range of needs. Mark combines the practicalities of osteopathy with pragmatic take-home advice to ensure that clients are well supported.

A keen community volunteer, Mark was a massage therapist for Surfest in 1995 and 1997 and was a co-founder of the North Wollongong Community Garden in 1999. "The Garden" as it is affectionately known, continues strong to this day as a demonstration site on the principles of sustainability and permaculture. Mark also volunteered his time at Mayumarri in Quarrobolong, a unique healing retreat for survivors of child abuse, helping to create a productive kitchen garden for the centre. Mark is also a mad keen surfer and has a healthy respect for the ocean.
