My Journey Into Physiotherapy

The Beginning

My interest in physiotherapy was sparked by witnessing the transformative impact it can have on people's lives. I saw how dedicated physiotherapists could help individuals regain movement, strength, and confidence after life-changing events.

This inspired me to pursue a career where I could combine my passion for helping others with my interest in human movement and rehabilitation. I wanted to be part of that journey of recovery and empowerment.

Specialising in Neurological Care

During my training and early career, I discovered a particular passion for neurological physiotherapy. I was drawn to the complexity and challenge of helping people with neurological conditions, where every individual's journey is unique.

The opportunity to work with people living with conditions like stroke, MS, and Parkinson's disease showed me the incredible resilience of the human spirit and the importance of personalised, compassionate care.

My Approach to Care

❤️

Person-Centred Care

I believe in treating the whole person, not just their condition. Every individual has unique goals, challenges, and circumstances. My approach is to listen, understand, and work together to create a treatment plan that fits your life and aspirations.

🌟

Holistic Care

I take a whole-person approach — combining clinical expertise with encouragement and care. My focus is on supporting progress not only during sessions but also in everyday life, helping you build confidence, strength, and independence where it matters most.

🏠

Home-Based Care

I chose to offer home visits because I believe rehabilitation is most effective in your natural environment. Working in your home allows me to see how you move and function in your daily life, leading to more practical and meaningful treatment.

What Drives Me

🌟

Seeing Progress

There's nothing more rewarding than witnessing someone regain their confidence and independence, no matter how small the improvement may seem.

🤝

Building Relationships

I value the relationships I build with my clients and their families. Trust and understanding are the foundation of effective rehabilitation.

💪

Making a Difference

Every day, I have the privilege of helping people improve their quality of life and achieve their rehabilitation goals.
