I’ve been a massage therapist since 2009 and have worked consistently since then across a variety of clinical settings. I’ve worked mainly alongside physiotherapists and chiropractors, playing an integral role in ongoing maintenance programmes within these teams. My client base has ranged from belly dancers to marathon runners—and just about everything in between. I’ve supported teenagers, older adults, adaptive athletes, and clients with complex needs who use massage to maintain mobility. My background is in special needs education which I still split my time between; I’m a qualified teacher of the deaf, visually impaired, and also work with individuals with ADHD and ASD. My massage work has tended to be divided between sports massage and maintenance treatments for chronic conditions—ranging from work-related back pain to joint pain relief for conditions like fibromyalgia. I began developing my interest in nutrition in 2013, having seen first-hand the impact that optimal nutrition had on client progress—and in my own health journey. I qualified as a Nutritional Therapist in 2018 and have since worked in clinical settings, using nutrition as a key tool within recovery programmes. Alongside working with clients on a 1:1 basis, I’m also the Nutrition Coach for members at the local CrossFit box. In addition, I’m part of the team at a community interest company, The Academy Program, where I provide nutritional support for the Ambassadors they sponsor. I’m also a keen athlete myself and have been doing CrossFit for over 11 years. I love to stay active, and you’ll most often find me walking my dog and enjoying the beautiful surroundings here in Exmouth.
