Hi. My name's Jo.
I've been working as a Physio since 2002, and launched "Move More!" in 2013.
​I am driven to excellent practice by a strong desire for Justice, and 2 core beliefs.
​
Firstly, that all human beings were created to enjoy meaningful relationships, and the fulfilment that comes from having and achieving purpose.
​
Secondly, that Physical activity is a fundamental necessity for Physical and Mental wellbeing.
I long for all people to live and move freely, and it is my privilege to work with you towards that freedom through addressing symptoms, and building skills and abilities.
​​
I've worked with people with a range of physical impairments, at different stages of illness. I am highly experienced in working with people who have Neurological conditions, including;​​
​​Stroke
​With the right interventions, many people continue to make improvements in physical function for many months post stroke. I have many years of rehab experience, as well as contributing to 2 research projects investigating interventions to achieve best outcomes for people with chronic physical impairments post stroke.​ We can work together to maximise your physical capacity and keep it into the long term.
Parkinson's Disease
The right type, intensity, and amount of exercise makes a huge difference for people with Parkinson's Disease. I have looked after many people with Parkinson's Disease in various settings over many years, including the delivery of group and individual exercise therapy. I have completed training in LSVT BIG®, and contributed to a research project developing a new assessment tool for gait and stability in PD. As well as exercise intervention, we can help with education, functional retraining, and falls-prevention strategies.
Vestibular disorders
I have recently worked in a specialist Vestibular clinic, and have successfully completed competency- based training and examinations in this area of practice. If you are suffering from vertigo, I can help to diagnose the cause, and reverse or manage the symptoms. We will use Infrared goggles to improve the ease and accuracy of this diagnosis and treatment. In some instances, such as with BPPV, vertigo can be an easily reversible problem; symptoms can resolve in 1-3 treatments. In other cases, for people who have impaired vestibular function, we can work together to adjust and retrain your gaze stability, balance, and function.
Motor Neurone Disease
I have helped a number of people adjust to and manage the effects of MND. There are many ways that Physiotherapy can be helpful along this journey.
Spinocerebellar Ataxias
Multiple Sclerosis​​
