Bsc Hons Physiotherapy, CSP (089255), HCPC (PH96839) and AACP (16869)

Steph is our senior Physiotherapist. She started her career graduating from Northumbria University in 2011 before moving back home to South Yorkshire where she worked for 9 years, then returning to her love for the North East in 2020. Having always worked in private practice, she has developed a vast array of clinical skills over the 13 years’. Her passion for Physiotherapy started from a young age with a fascination for anatomy and problem solving combined with her compassionate and empathetic nature.

She specialises in the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of a wide variety of neuromusculoskeletal pathologies ranging from traumatic sporting injuries to postural neck and spinal issues, long term chronic and acute pain conditions, post-operative management, and headaches. Steph has also worked in occupational health, medico-legal clinics and musculoskeletal outpatient settings.

Steph understands and strongly believes in the importance of thoroughly understanding and identifying the root cause of the problem, the application of hand of manual therapy techniques, dry needling and acupuncture, combined with specific evidence based Pilates and exercise rehabilitation programs, in order to provide fast relief, achieve long term resolutions to pain and maintain patient specific goals whilst keeping you off the treatment table! She approaches problems with an optimistic outlook with a strong commitment and devotion to personal and professional development, regularly keeping up to date with advances in research and treatment evidence proving her expert knowledge.

Steph is a keen Crossfit athlete, both competing and judging. This plays a huge part in keeping you moving with an understanding the importance of biomechanics, movement analysis and movement standards with an appreciation for all sporting disciplines. You can otherwise find her travelling and ticking off a new country, at live music events or cooking!
