Behind the Scenes of Excellence: 3D Physio Healthcare at the 2025 Bendigo Business Excellence Awards

Health and Care Award Winner - 3D Physiotherapy Health Group

Episode aired - Thursday, February 12, 2026

For a second time Julie joined Caleb from Hebron Films in a special limited series, where he takes listeners behind the curtain of the 2025 Bendigo Business Excellence Awards.

About the episode

In this special episode, Julie Sheen, founder of 3D Physio Healthcare Group, shares the story behind winning the 2025 Health and Care Award—marking an extraordinary third consecutive year of recognition.

Julie explains how 3D Physio has evolved beyond a traditional physiotherapy clinic into a truly preventative, wellness‑focused healthcare model. With clinics in Bendigo and outreach services in Boort, the team supports clients across all stages of life, with a strong emphasis on education, strength, and long‑term health rather than short‑term fixes.

A major focus of the conversation is 3D Physio’s commitment to healthy ageing. Julie challenges the belief that decline and frailty are inevitable, sharing how structured strength training, connection, and confidence can help people remain strong, independent, and vibrant well into older age. The clinic now runs more than 30 group programs each week, many focused on strength training for older adults, helping clients reduce falls, stay active and thrive.

Julie also discusses recent growth within the business, including the addition of a lifestyle medicine GP, plans to introduce cancer rehabilitation services and the impact of having a dedicated change management consultant to support sustainable growth and team wellbeing.

Reflecting on the awards process, Julie describes it as a powerful opportunity to step back, reconnect with purpose, and clarify the ‘why’ behind the business. Her advice to others: commit fully, dig deep and use the process as a chance to shape the future, not just win an award.

This episode offers an inspiring insight into how passion, prevention, and community‑focused care can truly change lives.
