I enjoyed an exciting 18 year career in sports sponsorship that took me to Olympic and Paralympic Games, FIFA and Rugby World Cups but it came with a fair amount of pressure, stress and sedentary desk work interrupted sporadically by running around frantically at events. So, inspired by my own need for bodywork therapy I decided to take a new path and studied an HE Certificate in Health at the McTimoney School of Chiropractic with a view to then studying the Masters in McTimoney Chiropractic. However, happy circumstances amended my plans when I became pregnant. After having my daughter I took a step in a similar direction and completed Level 3 and 4 diplomas in Sports Massage. 

​

In 2016, I also completed the Well Mother Pregnancy & Massage Diploma that allows me to safely work with women in the all three trimesters of pregnancy and those with higher risk pregnancies. To find out more about the Well Mother organisation visit: http://www.wellmother.org/

​In 2022, I became a Mat Pilates instructor as a wonderful way to deepen my skills around bodywork so I could truly help people on their journey to a stronger, healthier, more comfortable body - and mind! I have loved creating and teaching Mat Pilates classes offering clients a friendly atmosphere and relaxed environment in which to discover and practise Pilates, and more importantly to connect with each other if they want, but also with themselves and their bodies. I also offer one-to-one Pilates sessions when it is always a joy to get to know a person individually and help them progress into fitness and strength. 

​

​​Whether you are looking for help to ease pain, discomfort, aches and pains in the body through massage or PIlates, I will be truly delighted to help you.​
