Effie Sibson

I am an experienced occupational therapist with a passion for innovative and evidence-based neurological arm and hand rehab. I am a Co-Founder at Elevate Neuro Rehab, a private practice located on the Sunshine Coast, Australia. Our team is dedicated to helping individuals regain meaningful arm and hand function after neurological events like stroke, brain injury, spinal cord injury. Beyond clinical practice, I provide professional development for allied health clinicians around the world working in neuro rehab. In particular, evidence based arm and hand therapies such as motor learning and task-specific practice, electrical stimulation and constraint induced movement therapy. I'm driven by a vision that all people living with neurological conditions have access to the latest advanced technologies and evidence-based therapies to optimise their recoveries and improve quality of life. In 2025, I founded Banksia Tech, an Australian distributor of advanced rehabilitation technology. We partner with individuals, clinics and hospitals, to bring cutting-edge technology to those who need it most.
