There are a number of women’s health conditions that benefit from a holistic approach to treatment and management. I love to provide support that is not only based on the latest science but also tailor make strategies to fit in with your own unique lifestyle and goals. My aim is to make myself redundant in your life – no weekly massages for years on end – just equipping you with the tools to make the changes you need to recover from or manage your condition.

The aims of my interventions

• Increase your sense of wellbeing despite your health condition

• Enable you to enjoy and engage the activities (occupations) you love and value
• Establish an increased feeling of control on your day to day life

What type of interventions do I use?

Treating many of these conditions requires a holistic approach. One that considers your physical body, your mind, your environment, the things you do (occupations) and your routines and habits.

• Ergonomic strategies
• Modifying your home or work environment to better support your physical, psychological or sensory needs
• Recommending specific stretches, exercises, activities or equipment

• Conducting an evaluation of your digital inputs such as social media
• Teach relaxation strategies such as breathing, mindfulness or calming sensory strategies

All consultations include:

• Written recommendations
• Educational material to support your needs
• Referral to other health professionals if needed
• Phone / email support to clarify any questions you have in relation to what we covered
