daphné auclair

pelvic health + musculoskeletal physiotherapist

Daphné is a French-Canadian Physiotherapist with a fierce passion for helping people across pelvic health, oncology, and all stages of life. Having lived and trained internationally, Daphné has been working in Australia for the past four years and brings a diverse, inclusive, and empathetic approach to care.

Daphné has a strong clinical focus on gender-inclusive care, supporting people across a range of pelvic health concerns and life stages, including pregnancy and postnatal care, pelvic health for men and people of all genders, persistent pain, menopause, and cancer treatment and recovery. She is deeply committed to breaking down stigma and creating a safe, welcoming space where every person feels heard, respected, and empowered to work towards their individual goals. Daphné believes rehabilitation and exercise should be enjoyable, accessible, and something people can genuinely feel good about.

Daphné also has a dedicated interest and experience in exercise-based oncology rehabilitation, supporting people throughout and beyond their cancer journey. She works with people affected by prostate, gynaecological, breast, and other cancers, addressing concerns including pelvic health, incontinence, pain, fatigue, sexual function, strength, and confidence. She is incredibly passionate about the value of tailored exercise and education in helping people restore function, improve quality of life, and feel more confident in their bodies—and believes everyone should have access to this support.

At Embrace, Daphné takes a collaborative, evidence-based approach, using movement as a powerful tool to support pelvic health, wellbeing, and recovery during and after cancer treatment. She combines clear, supportive education with tailored exercise and lifestyle strategies, bringing an empathetic and creative approach to care that helps people build sustainable habits and feel confident in their bodies.
