Specialist Clinics & Treatments
OSTEOPATHY
Gentle, restorative osteopathic care to ease pain, improve mobility and support whole‑body wellbeing. Treatment is tailored to your individual needs, using a combination of soft‑tissue work, myofascial release, joint articulation and subtle techniques to help you move with greater comfort and ease.
Osteopathy can support a wide range of presentations, including postural tension, back or neck discomfort, joint or muscular pain, and the effects of stress or fatigue. Each session is adapted to your energy levels and treatment goals.
Where helpful, Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) or Scar Therapy can be integrated to support tissue health, reduce swelling and enhance recovery.
MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE
(MLD) to aid Post-operative recovery
Evidence‑based Manual Lymphatic Drainage, delivered using the Fill & Flush® clinical method, combined with clear pre‑ and post‑surgery guidance to support recovery and optimise surgical outcomes.
I regularly work with a wide range of procedures, including:
-
Cosmetic surgery — abdominoplasty, 360 procedures, breast reduction or augmentation
-
Oncology surgery — mastectomy, lymph node removal, breast reconstruction
-
Orthopaedic procedures — joint replacements
-
C‑section recovery
This list is not exhaustive — MLD can be helpful after many types of surgery, and I’m always happy to discuss your individual needs.
The Fill & Flush® method is a structured, research‑validated approach based on lymphofluoroscopy studies, ensuring treatment is safe, clinically grounded and appropriate for each stage of healing.
Scar Therapy and Gentle Osteopathic Care can be added as needed to support comfort, mobility and long‑term recovery.
SCAR THERAPY
MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE (MLD) for Limb Lymphoedema
Specialist hands‑on care to improve mobility, comfort and integration of new or old scars.
I am trained with Restore Scar Therapy, a clinically informed approach that supports healthy tissue recovery, improves glide and reduces restrictions around surgical or traumatic scars.
MLD or Gentle Osteopathic Care can be incorporated where helpful to support comfort, movement and the wider recovery journey.
I use the Fill & Flush® method of Manual Lymphatic Drainage, a clinical, research‑validated approach based on lymphofluoroscopy studies.
This structured method ensures treatment is safe, effective and aligned with best practice in lymphoedema care.
I commonly support people with secondary lymphoedema related to oncology surgery or radiotherapy, but MLD can help with other causes of lymphoedema too.
ONCOLOGY CARE
MLD, Scar Therapy & Wellbeing Massage
Specialist, gentle hands‑on care for people undergoing or recovering from cancer treatment, including lumpectomy, mastectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and lymph node removal.
Your treatment is tailored to where you are in your recovery and what you need at each stage. This may include aromatherapy, oncology‑adapted massage, Manual Lymphatic Drainage (MLD) or Scar Therapy. Gentle osteopathic care can also be incorporated to support comfort, ease of movement and your wider healing journey.
