I am a Hand Therapist specialising in the assessment and treatment of acute injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, and long-term conditions affecting the hand and upper limb. I have worked in hand therapy since 2018 across both the NHS and private practice, developing a broad and well-rounded clinical experience.

I have been supporting musicians and performers with their return from injury. This has shaped my approach to rehabilitation, focusing on helping people return not just to daily activities, but to the specific demands of their work and performance.

I treat a range of conditions including tenosynovitis, trigger finger, De Quervain’s tenosynovitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, thumb osteoarthritis, and acute trauma such as fractures and ligament injuries. My treatment approach may include hands-on therapy, splinting, tailored exercise programmes, ergonomic and performance advice, and post-operative wound and scar care.

I have a particular interest in working with musicians and performers. Having grown up playing piano, cello, and violin, and performing in orchestras and solo settings, I understand the physical demands and pressures of performance. I aim to work collaboratively with each person to support recovery, prevent recurrence, and optimise performance.

I am committed to providing personalised, evidence-based care that supports each individual’s goals, whether that is returning to performance, work, or everyday life.
