Daniel Castellano
Daniel Castellano is a caring, professional and experienced Osteopath. He is passionate about helping individuals with pain; assessing, treating and returning them to doing the things that they love. Daniel adopts a holistic approach to his treatment of various injuries. This involves identifying and addressing all the contributing factors to a patient’s pain.
Daniel has always loved sport and from a young age competed at state level in both Cricket & AFL Football. Unfortunately, he sustained significant injuries, but while being treated, discovered his interest and passion for anatomy and physiology- which led to his decision to pursue Osteopathy after completing high school.
Daniel attended RMIT university, where he obtained a double degree in Health Sciences & Osteopathy. Since then, he has also completed extra Professional Development courses & training and obtained additional qualifications. Some of which include ACL rehab, Shoulder injury & management, Hamstring rehabilitation and Electro Dry Needling & Cupping.
During your initial consultation, Daniel will identify all factors relating to your pain through a thorough case history and physical assessment. Treatment will involve soft-tissue massage, stretching techniques, joint mobilization/manipulation and dry needling or cupping (if required). A management plan that includes specific exercise prescription will also be derived, to allow the patient to take an active role in their own health care in the comfort of their own home, in between additional appointments. He’ll even recommend a movie or TV series to watch while you undertake your rehab.
Daniel is excited to have moved his business in 2025 to new larger premises, with multiple treatment rooms, a comfortable waiting room and three brand new team members to treat clients of all ages- including adults, children, NDIS patients and Indigenous people- and is proud to provide an inclusive, supportive space for the LGBTQIA+ community.
In his time outside of the clinic, Daniel is a family man. Happily married with two young children keeping him very busy. In his limited free time, Daniel can be found playing or watching sport, and spending time in the gym. He loves cheering on his beloved Richmond Tigers! Daniel is also a foodie with a sweet tooth. He enjoys a Netflix night-in and bingeing the latest TV Series or Documentary. Feel free to recommend something you’ve recently watched.
