My path into therapeutic practice began following a profound personal turning point in 1996, when my husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer. That experience led me to explore evidence-informed, drug-free approaches to health and recovery  and ultimately reshaped my professional direction.

​

With an international background in hospitality and event management within leisure and professional sport, I gained a clear understanding of the physical demands placed on the body — and the limitations of conventional injury care.

 

In 2004, I began formal training in progressive manual therapies, specialising in Bowen Therapy, fascial and soft tissue rehabilitation, scar work and nervous system regulation.

​

This clinical evolution led to the development of my “Just Breathe - The Body Breathing Exercise,” integrating specialist breath-work to support vagal tone, systemic resilience and deeper recovery.

​

Whilst my client base was mainly professional and elite athletes, today I work with individuals seeking lasting solutions to pain, injury and stress-related conditions. 

​

And at home, amongst the family and grandchildren, this work is simply known as “G’ma’s magic moves”  frequently asked for after every bump and fall and mystery pain and any other excuse they can make up!

My formal training began with Bowen Therapy, forming the foundation of my clinical practice. Early on, I recognised that effective rehabilitation requires more than a single modality. Since then, I have pursued extensive study to deepen both structural understanding and systemic integration. This commitment to continued professional development allows me to work with precision, depth and adaptability, supporting efficient, lasting recovery rather than isolated symptom management.

2026 brings some exciting news as I venture to bring my breath work to Horse Therapy.  More on this soon.

Having had to take time out in 2025 for a very severe arm/wrist injury I look to be back in full swing very soon with a brand new wrist.  Watch this space to follow the updates.

22 years after leaving the work of Cricket I'm back working in my other happy place. In 2025 I took on the role of Honorary Secretary to St Mary Bourne Cricket Club.  We have a big project ahead to replace the pavilion. ​​​​
