Patient journeys…

“I put my complete faith in Kerry and did everything she asked of me. I cannot thank her enough for how she listened and watched how I moved/run and her findings resulted in me getting back to running and competing in the Duathlon European Championships where I got 4th place in my age category”

Ruth McKee

“When I met Kerry I was injured and felt helpless and worried about my back pain. After working together I became more confident and I was more sure about what was safe to do. If you have a specific problem that you need to fix, it’s such a relief to have someone that knows what you can and can’t do”
