After a rewarding career in hospitality and travel, including fourteen years in the French Alps, my life changed dramatically in 1996 when my husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer. This challenging period sparked my deep interest in drug-free approaches to health and well-being, setting me on a new and unexpected path. 

​

Building on my experience in the ski industry, I transitioned into sports event management. This role gave me the unique opportunity to work closely with professional athletes in cricket, tennis, and pro/celebrity golf. During a two-year stint managing Shenley Cricket Centre, a second home to Middlesex CC when not at Lords, I helped host warm-up matches for international touring teams, further expanding my understanding of the sporting world. 

​

Through this work, I witnessed first-hand the frustration athletes experienced with slow recovery from injuries. In 2004, I began exploring natural, hands-on therapies designed to accelerate healing. This journey led me to move beyond conventional treatments such as physiotherapy, sports massage, osteopathy, and chiropractic care, which were already widely used by athletes. My growing curiosity about respiratory health culminated in the development of my “Just Breathe – Body Breathing Practice,” a unique approach that integrates breathwork into physical recovery. 

​

Driven by my passion for sport, my practice naturally evolved to support elite, professional, and age-group athletes across a variety of disciplines. The effectiveness of my alternative methods quickly gained recognition within the triathlon community, both in the UK and internationally, as athletes sought my help for injury repair and to maintain peak performance. My work expanded beyond the sporting arena, assisting people of all ages with musculoskeletal and physiological challenges. 

 

My life has been enriched by living in France, Germany, Hong Kong, and several counties across the UK, from Yorkshire to Somerset and places in-between. I am now based in Hampshire, married to a commercial pilot and am proud to be both a mother and grandmother. Among my grandchildren, my work is affectionately known as “G’ma’s magic moves”.  It has become their much-loved remedy for every fall and bump. They love it so much they’ll even feign injury in the hope of a “magic move” or two!

My training journey began with Bowen Therapy. However, I quickly realized the importance of expanding my knowledge and experience to enhance my practice. I sought out additional training and explored various modalities to deepen my understanding and provide a comprehensive approach to healing and well-being. This commitment to continuous learning has allowed me to offer a more comprehensive and effective approach to helping clients find a speedy and lasting recovery.

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. ​​​​
