I have been a physiotherapist since 1995 and specialise in the management of persistent neck and back pain. My book “Overcoming pain” outlines my principles of management, which have a strong sense of self management and self empowerment.
My Physiotherapy approach involves:
- Educating you regarding the cause of your pain or dysfunction
- Discussing openly with you any potential treatment plans
- Encouraging you to make positive life changes that encourage wellness
- A holistic approach to personal wellbeing
- A problem solving approach to overcoming pain
- Refering you on to another specialist if I don’t believe I can help you
My hands on treatment is based around soft tissue massage and gentle mobilisation. I also use a lot of exercise therapy based on a lifetime involvement with yoga, pilates and other movement therapies including Feldenkrais method.
For more information on my approach please refer to my book “Overcoming pain“.
