In 2002 he moved to the UK where he took up a number of appointments in the British National Health Service as a musculoskeletal physiotherapist and student educator. Whilst in the UK, Michael was also appointed as a physiotherapist by Fulham FC for three seasons in the English Premier League. During this time in the UK he worked with leading British authorities in the field of medicine and rehabilitation.

On returning to Australia, Michael returned to Jubilee Sports Physiotherapy and has since become a principal at the practice.
