Dr. Ben Weavell

Registered Osteopath

Hailing from the foothills of the Dandenongs in Melbourne’s outer east, Ben came directly to Osteoworks as a graduate of Victoria University.

After seeing the Karate Kid movie as a seven-year-old, Ben says he was inspired to get his junior black belt before the call of team sport became too loud to ignore. A diehard Hawthorn fan, Ben played AFL at the local and representative level as a youngster and has worked as an Osteopath with the women's VFL team Western Spurs.

Before his studies in Osteopathy, Ben completed Certificates III and IV in Fitness and has a particular interest in rehabilitation and movement training.

Ben uses a combination of hands-on structural osteopathic techniques such as mobilisation, manipulation, stretching and massage, depending on the needs of the individual. Ben strongly believes that the body is a unit. Therefore, to help his patients function efficiently and achieve their goals, he considers all facets of health.
