My approach

“I spend a long time on each consultation which gives me a chance to really listen to you and then look, examine, give you my opinion and then treat you. Occasionally I will recommend that you see your doctor or other healthcare professional. I encourage you to ask questions so you are clear about what I think the problem or problems are.”

“When I treat you, my aim is to restore good function to your joints and muscles by using a combination of soft tissue techniques - different forms of stretching and massage - and articulation of joints - moving these through their range to restore quality of movement. I aim to work with your natural healing process and make recovery as quick and efficient as possible with new, acute injuries and encourage and restore the healing process in chronic, longstanding conditions, giving you the confidence to get back to your normal activities.”

“I will probably give you easy exercises to do at home or at work and are happy to offer advice over the phone.” 

“Everything I discuss is in the strictest confidence at all times.”
