She has practiced as an Osteopath in Hertfordshire-UK, Dominica, St Kitts, Montserrat-Caribbean, Glasgow-Scotland, Zambia-Africa, Lincolnshire -UK, for 19 years and for the last 20 years has been settled in Norfolk, establishing 2 highly respected practices in the Norfolk communities.

As a mother of 3 grown-up children, she has always treated pregnant and postpartum women, babies and children. Recently the desire to expand and extend her knowledge in this area resulted in the completion of the 2 year Paediatric Osteopathic Diploma, run by the Sutherland Cranial College; with whom she is also a Fellow having completed the comprehensive training on the Pathway in Cranial Osteopathy, which runs over 6+ years.

Other postgraduate studies include a yearly Biodynamic course, now in the 7th year, alongside the Paediatric Biodynamics course run in the USA by Jim Jealous, ‘the father of osteopathy’ to osteopathic learning.

She is training towards being a consultant for Rhythmic Movement Therapy, having worked with Primitive Reflexes for the last 12 years.

She enjoys treating patients from birth to the elderly with a wide range of conditions, using a variety of osteopathic techniques in her practices with Cranial Osteopathy at the heart of treatment. The importance of preventing symptoms, maintaining their recovery through exercise and lifestyle is vital to sustain patient changes.

Hobbies are trying to stay fit, hitting a ball in tennis and table tennis, running and body awareness and strength with Pilates, which she has studied for 15 years with a view to guiding patients towards the best exercise regime.
