About Me
For 30 years, it has been an honour to support so many clients in challenging times. I aim to reduce your pain, stress and anxiety and enable you to thrive in life. I listen really carefully to you and draw on my wealth of knowledge to develop a bespoke treatment to meet your needs on the day of treatment.
My years of experience have led me to a deep understanding that our body physiology holds our whole life story. It is my intention to hold a safe space to allow change to take place. My gentle, informed touch encourages your body to heal at a deep level, facilitating physical, emotional, and psychological change to provide profound and long-lasting results. Many clients talk about “miracle” cures or my “magic hands” but really the miracle lies in your body, which, given the correct circumstance, finds a path to greater health, less pain and improved function – always a joy to witness.
I am passionate about my work, and therefore stay up to date with the latest developments in the field of bodywork, trauma, and pain. I use my skills to aid your return to an active, pain free and fulfilled life, better able to manage the stresses that life presents.
When not in clinic, I teach advanced bodywork therapy both nationally and internationally. I founded School of Bodywork, in 2009 and continue to teach here. You can read my published articles here.
I am committed to my own physical and emotional wellbeing; this ensures I can fully support you.
