Since graduating from Harper Adams University in 2020 with a degree in Veterinary Physiotherapy, I have been a vet physio for both horses and dogs. I joined Mathilde’s team in 2021 and love the challenge and diversity of the practice. It is very rewarding to see the improvement dogs make in their condition week on week.

​

From a young age, my love for biology began to grow. I remember sitting in science class being in total awe of what teachers were describing when it came to the human body (which is incredibly similar to the animal body). The intricate design of anatomy, the wonders of physiology and how every day, all these elements manage to work in (almost) complete cohesion, captivated me. 

​

What astounds me, still today, is how the body is able to heal itself almost completely on its own. As a Veterinary Physiotherapist, I see it as my role to do everything I can to empathetically promote and encourage this musculoskeletal healing. I am a firm believer that everything is deeply connected, and if one element is out of place, this will have a knock on effect for many other mechanisms of the body.

​

My other passion has always been animals. I have grown up around dogs and the unconditional and underserving love animals give to us continuously, has always kept me close to them. There is a deep spiritual understanding which they seem to connect to us with. 

​

Sport and exercise has also been a huge part of my life. I was a competitive swimmer for almost 10 years, quitting only to focus and pursue my studies and a career in veterinary physiotherapy. I feel this gives me a great understanding of the importance of movement and exercise in the rehabilitation of a veterinary patient.
