About me

On completing a Master’s degree in Physiotherapy I've worked both in a clinical and community setting, covering musculoskeletal injuries, post-operative rehabilitation, neurological conditions and general mobility rehabilitation. Originally completing an undergraduate degree in Sport and Exercise Sciences, I began working as a personal trainer and sport Masseuse and therefore use a holistic approach to treating patients. My previous work experience has taken me to a variety of countries including being a teacher at the Australian Institute of Fitness, a masseuse for the local rugby team in Spain and a personal trainer on board Superyachts and at weight loss retreats. I love to travel but finally settled in Poole to start a family and I’m excited to now combine Pilates with my physiotherapy work.
