What I do in a nutshell

I try and identify where the system is struggling to find optimal health. Looking at the body in a holistic manner considering all aspects and how it affects and influences one another. Working with a variety of different treatment modalities, from visceral to functional, to structural. I tailor my treatments to my patients' needs and refer onwards where necessary. 

 Areas of interest

• Paediatrics 
  

• Pregnancy 
  

• Working with post-operative scar tissue of any kind, to restore elasticity in the tissues affected and prevent long-term issues. (Never too late to work on these! Keyhole surgery - C-sections etc.) 
  

• Working with Trauma in all forms and how it affects the system
  

• Working with resolved fractures to restore flexibility in the bone and or joints, to aid with return to activity. 
  

• Gut and Visceral Mobility and it’s effect on the musculoskeletal system. 
  

• Woman health
  

When I am not at Connect Health Clinic,
