Surrey Sports The Treatment Room Therapists

Initially working for Optimum Fitness, I was quickly recruited to provide therapy services for Surrey Storm Super-league Netball squad during training and on match days and further went on to work with Surrey United & Surrey Scorchers BBL squad.

Coming from a teaching background, with 4 years in further education and a Post Graduate Certificate in Education, my aim is to give my clients the knowledge and power to improve their condition whilst away from The Treatment Room. I am dedicated to fitness, in particular strength training, so understand the frustrations an injury can cause, but this passion also provides me with empathy to channel those frustrations positively.

As The Treatment Room manager Danielle has used her wealth of experience, in particular at Surrey Sports Park, to recruit a team of practitioners to suit all needs and provide the standard of treatment one would expect from an elite sporting facility

In both settings I have gained valuable experience in rehabbing individuals back to not just day-to-day life, but to a desired level of sport/activity, whether that is at a professional or recreational level.

Over this time I have been able to develop my clinical skills to include a range of treatment methods, for a large range of injuries seen in individual sport as well as within team sport settings.

I am a key member of the medical team at Harlequins Rugby Club, having been a physiotherapist for the team that won the Allianz 15's Premiership. I have extensive experience in working with squash, netball, ice hockey, and rugby players, but always welcome anyone of any training ability. I have worked in multiple hospital environments including Acute Care of the Elderly, stroke and neurological rehabilitation, first contact GP physiotherapy, and Intensive Care respiratory team. I was a key member of the ICU physiotherapy team during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic which, when combined with my elite sports experience, has enabled me to experience a wide range of patients and conditions. I always seek to consider every patient on their own merit and presentation, never using a one-size-fits-all approach and tailoring every session to each patient.

Having the experience of working within a clinical environment as well as semi-professional football I have gained valuable skills and experience to ensure the best treatment tailored to the individual.
Patients can expect a complete assessment of their injury, where I will guide them through each stage of the session as well as educate them on the clinical reasoning behind the treatment. Treatment and training will be discussed together to work towards the patient’s goals.
