About Felix
Dr. Felix Leung is a Lecturer in Physiotherapy at Griffith University, within the School of Allied Health, Sport and Social Work in Griffith Health. He is a clinical and research physiotherapist with an area of expertise in sports and exercise physiotherapy. Leung completed his PhD in Physiotherapy at Griffith University from 2015 to 2019, focusing on the effect of concussion on vestibular and cervical spine function in adolescent rugby union players. He also holds a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours). His career emphasizes injury prevention and rehabilitation in contact sports, particularly rugby union and league, where he investigates risk factors such as neck strength deficits, cervical spine function, vestibulo-ocular screening, and lower limb musculoskeletal injuries.
Leung's research outputs include the study 'Neck strength deficit is a risk factor for concussion in high school rugby union and rugby league players' published in the Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport in 2025, which links weaker neck strength to increased concussion risk. He co-authored 'Cervical spine and vestibulo-ocular screening in elite female athletes with a history of concussion' in Musculoskeletal Science and Practice in 2025, and 'Lower limb MSK injuries among school-aged rugby players' in 2020. Additional publications cover trunk muscle relationships to landing tasks in 2024 and exercise-induced hypoalgesia in elite athletes in 2024. Leung contributed to a National Health and Medical Research Council funded project from 2017 to 2019. He serves as Program Director for the Bachelor of Physiotherapy, overseeing teaching and supervision. His findings advocate for incorporating neck strength testing into concussion prevention, as noted in Griffith University news releases. Leung's Google Scholar profile shows 444 citations, highlighting his influence in physiotherapy and sports injury research. He has discussed his work in professional podcasts, including with the JSAMS Editor-in-Chief.
