Like many I have always been a keen follower and participant in many sports, from running, cycling, racket sports, football, and cricket at a local level. Whilst training for a marathon I experienced an injury that almost curtailed my involvement and led to me not training for 6 weeks prior to the event. The frustration of being injured and fear of not being able to achieve my goal after months of training and commitment, led me to start exploring the role of a Sports Therapist in more detail. I studied for a Diploma in Sports Therapy and then later for a BSc (Hons) Degree, gaining a First-Class classification. As well as these qualifications I also have a level 4 Certificate in Sports Massage Therapy, gaining a distinction.

I appreciate the potential difficulties and frustrations associated with injury and rehabilitation and hope to make that process easier for my clients passing on my knowledge and using shared experiences to help people of all ages, abilities and those with non-sporting injuries return to play, activities of daily living or back to work as quickly as possible. The process is a shared one, where I encourage each client to work with me to gain the best possible results through a range of evidence-based treatment approaches.
