What I do in a nutshell
I try and identify where the system is struggling to find optimal health. Looking at the body in a holistic manner considering all aspects and how it affects and influences one another. Working with a variety of different treatment modalities, from visceral to functional, to structural. I tailor my treatments to my patients' needs and refer onwards where necessary.
Areas of interest
