Member of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy
I am a fully qualified HCPC-registered Physiotherapist with an MSc in Physiotherapy and a strong background in Sports Therapy, which I have been practising since 2018. I provide evidence-based assessment, treatment and rehabilitation for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, using a combination of hands-on therapy, exercise rehabilitation and personalised treatment plans.
My aim is to help you reduce pain, restore movement and improve your physical wellbeing, so you can return to the activities that matter most to you—whether that's work, sport or everyday life. I believe in treating the individual, not just the condition, and I work closely with each client to achieve their personal goals.
Committed to delivering the highest standard of care, I regularly undertake continuing professional development through postgraduate training, courses and workshops to ensure my practice reflects the latest evidence and clinical guidelines. My passion is helping people recover from injury, regain confidence in their movement and make lasting improvements to their health and wellbeing.
How I can help
I provide assessment, treatment and rehabilitation for adults and children of all ages with a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, including:
- Back and neck pain
- Sciatica and other nerve-related symptoms
- Joint pain, stiffness and reduced mobility
- Sports and soft tissue injuries
- Rehabilitation following fractures and traumatic injuries
- Pre- and post-operative rehabilitation, including hip and knee replacements
- Paediatric musculoskeletal assessment and rehabilitation
- Headaches related to neck dysfunction
- Balance, strength and mobility problems affecting everyday activities
If your condition isn't listed, please get in touch. I'll be happy to discuss whether physiotherapy is the right option for you.
Physiotherapy
Initial Assessment
£85.00 (60 min)
Best for: New injuries, persistent pain, reduced mobility, post-operative rehabilitation, or anyone seeking a professional assessment of a musculoskeletal condition.
Your initial appointment is a comprehensive assessment designed to understand the cause of your symptoms, rather than simply treating the pain.
During the session, I will discuss your medical history, assess your movement, strength and function, and identify the factors contributing to your condition. Following the assessment, I will explain my findings, provide a clear diagnosis where appropriate, and begin treatment if time allows.
You'll also receive personalised advice and an exercise programme to support your recovery, along with a tailored treatment plan to help you achieve your goals.
Physiotherapy
Follow-up appointment
£55.00 (30 min)
Best for: Ongoing treatment, rehabilitation and monitoring your progress following your initial assessment.
Each follow-up appointment is tailored to your recovery and treatment goals. We will review your progress, reassess your symptoms and movement, and adapt your treatment plan as needed to ensure you continue making steady improvements.
Treatment may include hands-on therapy, exercise progression, movement retraining, education and advice to help reduce pain, restore function and prevent future problems. Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing a long-term condition or returning to work, sport or everyday activities, each session is designed to support your recovery every step of the way.
Sports / Deep Tissue Massage
£65.00 (60 min)
Best for: muscle tightness, post-exercise recovery, general aches, reduced mobility, and those who prefer firm pressure.
Sports massage is a deeper, more focused treatment designed to relieve muscle tension, reduce pain, and improve flexibility. It works on the soft tissues of the body, including muscles, tendons, and connective tissue.
This treatment is ideal if you enjoy firmer pressure and want more targeted work on specific areas of tension. It can be tailored to your needs — whether you’re active, recovering from exercise, or dealing with everyday stiffness and discomfort.
Using a range of techniques, I will help release tight areas, improve movement, and support your body’s recovery and overall balance.
Swedish Style Massage
£65.00 (60 min)
Best for: relaxation, stress relief, gentle muscle tension, and those who prefer lighter pressure.
Swedish massage is a calming and restorative treatment designed to help you relax, unwind, and relieve everyday stress.
Using smooth, flowing techniques and lighter pressure, this massage helps ease muscle tension, improve circulation, and promote a sense of overall wellbeing.
This treatment is ideal if you’re looking to switch off, de-stress, and enjoy a more gentle, soothing experience.
Hot Stone Massage
£65.00 (60 min)
Best for: deep relaxation, stress relief, better sleep, and soothing muscle tension with gentle warmth.
Hot Stones Massage is a deeply relaxing treatment that combines the techniques of Swedish massage with the use of warm, smooth stones.
The heat from the stones helps your muscles relax more quickly, allowing for a soothing, flowing massage that eases tension without the need for deep pressure.
This treatment is ideal if you’re looking to fully unwind, reduce stress, and enjoy a calming experience that can also support better sleep and overall wellbeing.
Reflexology
£65.00 (60 min)
Best for: relaxation, stress relief, improved wellbeing, and support for various minor ailments.
Foot Reflexology is a deeply relaxing therapy that works on specific points of the feet, which correspond to different parts of the body. By stimulating these points, it encourages your body to relax, helps reduce stress, and supports overall wellbeing.
This gentle treatment is suitable for almost everyone — from young adults to older clients — and can be especially helpful for stress-related conditions, tension, or just a need for some personal downtime.
I specialise in foot reflexology, providing a focused and soothing experience that allows you to truly switch off and feel refreshed.

Myofascial Dry Cupping
£65.00 (60 min)
Best for: muscle tension, aches, reduced mobility, back pain, headaches, and stress relief.
Myofascial Dry Cupping is a therapeutic treatment that uses specially applied cups to help release muscle tension, improve circulation, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
This therapy can help reduce pain and stiffness, improve movement in tight areas, and encourage relaxation. It’s particularly effective for back pain, sciatica, headaches, and muscle discomfort from everyday activity or stress.
Using gentle suction, the cups lift and stretch the fascia and soft tissues, encouraging increased blood flow, oxygenation, and nutrient delivery to the muscles. This helps the body reset and recover, leaving you feeling lighter, looser, and more relaxed.
Baby & Child Massage
£65.00 (60 min)
Baby & Child Massage is a gentle, nurturing treatment designed to support relaxation, comfort and overall wellbeing for babies and children of all ages.
Massage can help promote relaxation, improve sleep, support healthy digestion, ease muscular tension and encourage body awareness. For younger babies, it may also help with symptoms of colic, wind and general discomfort. For older children, massage can provide a calming experience that supports relaxation, emotional wellbeing and recovery from physical activities.
Each session is tailored to the child's age, individual needs and comfort level, creating a safe and positive experience for both child and parent. Parents are welcome to be present throughout the treatment and can also receive guidance on simple massage techniques to use at home.
Suitable for babies, toddlers, children and young people of all ages.
Aromatherapy Massage
(Swedish Massage with essential oils)
£65.00 (60 min)
Best for: relaxation, stress relief, emotional wellbeing, better sleep, and gentle muscle tension.
Aromatherapy massage is a deeply relaxing treatment that combines the soothing techniques of Swedish massage with carefully selected essential oils.
The gentle massage helps ease muscle tension, improve circulation, and encourage your body and mind to relax, while the essential oils are chosen to support your individual needs, whether you're looking to unwind, reduce stress, boost your mood, or enjoy a better night's sleep.
This treatment is ideal if you're looking for a calming, nurturing experience that leaves you feeling relaxed, refreshed, and balanced.
