About Me

Hi, I’m Michelle. I’m a Physiotherapist and Health Coach, specialising in chronic pain management.

I qualified in 2009 and I now have over 16 years’ experience as a physiotherapist in the NHS. Early in my career I made the decision to specialise in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. This is when I first became interested in the management of chronic pain.

I trained with the Health Innovation Network to be able to deliver the ESCAPE-pain© programme and I delivered several successful groups. This has given me valuable insight into the complex nature of chronic pain, and the incredible value of a holistic approach.

I have since continued my learning, keeping up to date with new developments and I am dedicated to exploring effective, evidence-based strategies tailored to your unique needs.

​

​

What I Offer

I provide specialist, evidence-based care for people living with persistent and chronic pain. I am dedicated to supporting individuals whose pain has lasted longer then expected - often months or years - and who may have tried previous treatments without lasting success.

​

Unlike traditional physiotherapy models that focus primarily on short-term symptom relief, I take a comprehensive and personalised approach to understanding pain. Chronic pain is complex. It involves the nervous system, movement patterns, stress, beliefs, and lifestyle - not just tissues or scans.

​

Appointments are longer, unhurried, and designed to build clarity, confidence and control. Each patient receives:

  • A thorough, in-depth assessment

  • Clear explanation of their pain

  • A structured rehabilitation plan

  • Practical strategies for flare-ups

  • Ongoing guidance and progression

​

The goal is not simply to reduce pain in the short term, but to help people rebuild trust in their body and return to meaningful activity with confidence.

​

I combine clinical expertise with a calm, personal and compassionate environment.

​

I work collaboratively with each individual, recognising that recovery from persistent pain requires partnership, consistency and a clear strategy.

​

This is physiotherapy designed for complex, ongoing pain - not just injury treatment.
