What do you like to do away from work?
Get out on my bike (when I can escape the kids) and be outside walking, Northumberland and the lakes. Watch rugby and enjoy going to Novos RFC to watch games and ‘socialise’ (pre covid!)

I also had a labral tear from rugby which I had operated on, it can still give me trouble now if I don’t do my exercises.

Why did you become a soft tissue therapist?
Why did you become a soft tissue therapist?
I enjoyed science and sport at school, and at University I did my dissertation on rugby injuries so it seemed a natural progression. I enjoy helping people with pain and empowering them about their body. Its great to be able to get someone back to activity, whether that’s playing sport or just being able to get down on the floor to do gardening or play with kids.
