A different approach to healthcare
Our difference
Designed around prevention
From your very first appointment, every aspect of your care aims to keep you active, support your recovery and reduce your risk of future pain or injury.
Our philosophy
Prevention is powerful
We believe prevention is one of the most powerful tools in healthcare.
Rather than just treating problems after they occur, we help you to stay strong, mobile and in control of your health, so you can keep doing the things that matter most to you.
Fundamentally, healthcare shouldn’t just support recovery. It should give you the tools you need to stay well.
Our vision
A new standard of care
Our vision is to make preventative care the new standard for musculoskeletal pain.
This means looking beyond the traditional pain-management model of care and helping people develop confidence in their body through movement, exercise and education.
By focusing on prevention, we hope to set a new standard of care and shift expectations of what modern care for musculoskeletal pain should be.
Our story
A vision brought to life
In founding Above Health, Jerome Smith sought to bring the expertise he gained from working in sport to raise the standard of care for active people in the broader community.
Through his work with athletes and sports teams, Jerome learned firsthand the value of preventative strategies in reducing injury risk, improving performance and protecting career longevity.
Combining the principles of osteopathy, sports medicine and strength and conditioning in his private practice, he developed a vision to raise the standard of care for musculoskeletal pain through prevention.
After a move to Sydney’s Upper North Shore in 2025, Jerome decided to make this vision a reality and in February 2026, Above Health was born.
Today, Above Health supports active people at every stage of life, from active kids and teens to athletes, busy professionals and older adults, helping the whole community keep moving for years to come.
Our team
Built on experience
Our passion for preventative care is built on years of experience working with athletes and sporting organisations, where reducing injury risk, improving performance and supporting career longevity are part of everyday practice.
