About me

My training took place at the specialist Royal Orthopaedic Hospital Birmingham and since qualifying back in 1982 I have always maintained an interest in Orthopaedic medicine and specifically problems affecting the musculoskeletal system. This interest lead me to gaining post graduate qualifications in Orthopaedic medicine and Occupational health.Many problems relate to poor and adapted 'postures' at work or during leisure pursuits and treatment must address these issues to be effective in the longterm. I have been fortunate in private practise to manage a vast range of both acute and chronic conditions and also set up and run 'Fit to Work' workshops for small companies both locally and London based. I presently work single handed but consider myself a professional but approachable therapist that will always go the extra mile for my patients. I participate in regular courses/lectures to maintain and update my continual professional development
