PILATES & MOVEMENT THERAPY
Do you dream of moving better and feeling stronger?
If you love the idea of moving better in a holistic way, my Pilates and movement therapy programmes are for you. I incorporate Pilates Reformer and mat work, targeted core activation movements, gentle physiotherapy-based techniques, and cutting-edge muscle strengthening, lengthening, and releasing methods based on the latest anatomical insights.
Together we will delve into the world of Pilates and movement, coupled with mindful breathing exercises, and to add a bit of flair, I may use resistance bands and balls. If you haven’t already got these props I can recommend the best places to source them.
My movement therapy sessions are a dynamic and enjoyable mix geared towards making you feel better, move better and challenging you to connect with every part of your mind and body.
If you experience back or shoulder pain, spinal conditions, hernias or disc bulges, difficulty in movement, or conditions like hypermobility, MS, or fibromyalgia, these sessions are designed just for you. Provided there are no contra-indications, we are good to go.
NEUROKINETIC THERAPY®
Have you had enough of endlessly searching for what's causing your pain?
Neuro-Kinetic Therapy® is the magic shortcut. Stop guessing, find out for certain, and address it - permanently.
NKT® is like a fast-track to figuring out and untangling our bodily compensation patterns.
It is based on kinesiology and applied neurology and works directly with the muscle, skin and ligament receptors, through which we find out if a particular stimulus, or pattern of movement, feels unsafe for the body, and why... and then we can reverse that, permanently.
Much of the pain and imbalance that we experience is due to these patterns which are stored in the motor control centre in our brain. NKT® uses a sequence of challenges and soft-tissue releases to resolve these patterns at their source.
This work will reinforce new movement patterns and switch you away from the ones that aren't doing you any favours.
With NKT® we are not just chasing your pain around, but are getting to the real cause of it, whether it is something new, is a recurring issue or is something you have lived with forever..
I am proud to be NKT® Level 3 (Advanced) certified.

HYPOPRESSIVES® & PELVIC FLOOR WELLNESS
Is your pelvic floor struggling to deal with the day-to-day demands of life?
Your pelvic floor is constantly under some tension. But you may be one of those women suffering from excess tension - giving you symptoms such as heaviness, obvious prolapse, or incontinence.
My programmes are designed to address any concerns you may have such as incontinence, pelvic pain, and postpartum recovery.
Using a mixture of Yoga, Pilates, rehabilitative movement, relaxation, and specific breathwork and strengthening postures, I will take you through a series of practices that are based on a multi-faceted approach to women’s health - more open breathing, better hip and ribcage mobility, less neck tension, and so much more.
A stronger, more resilient pelvic floor will reduce your risk of embarrassing moments when exercising, laughing, or simply going about your normal day.
It is far, far removed from boring and ineffective Kegel pelvic floor squeezes.
HYPNOTHERAPY AND EMOTIONAL TRANSFORMATION
Does the fast pace of life and a never-ending ‘to-do’ list affect your well-being?
If your nervous system is out of balance, it can affect your digestion, sleep patterns, heart rate and blood pressure. Being able to relax and feel connected to everyone and everything is so good for your health, happiness, and pain management.
There are many ways I can help re-balance an overstressed nervous system including addressing past trauma and grief or helping you combat deep-set anxieties, feelings of being held back in life, or having imposter syndrome.
Don’t feel stuck any longer. There are so many things that can be done to make you fly higher and freer in life.
As a qualified Cognitive-behavioural Hypnotherapist and Integrated Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT) practitioner, I will help you identify triggers for unwanted emotions and strategies for reducing their effect on your well-being and help you with a programme for effectively increasing your inner resilience to stress and anxieties of modern day living.
