Bio
Pamela Scarborough is a CF physiotherapist, yoga teacher, and co-founder of Beam, an online community that helps people with CF be more physically active. Now living in Australia, Pamela spent over 15 years working with adults with CF for the NHS in the UK and is dedicated to helping people find treatment regimens that are not only effective but are also sustainable in daily life. Her approach to care has been influenced by all the people with CF she has had the privilege to work with, and also by her best friend who has CF and received a transplant four years ago. Pamela undertook a MSc in Physiotherapy and explored areas such as exercise and rehabilitation, the role of yoga for managing thoracic kyphosis and low back pain in adults with CF, and psychological interventions for managing non-adherence to therapies. Pamela has presented at international conferences on numerous occasions including sessions at the North American CF conference on “Improving Adherence to Therapies” and “Developing a Biopsychosocial Approach to CF Care.” She's very excited to be a part of BreatheCon.
