My Journey

My path to becoming a physiotherapist has been deeply influenced by my own experiences. As an avid basketball player in my youth, an unexpected injury requiring surgery abruptly ended my engagement with sports and led me to confront a leg length discrepancy and chronic joint pain by my twenties.

Turning Point

2006 was a pivotal year for me as I explored traditional martial arts. This marked the beginning of a profound transformation in my overall wellness, offering a way out of chronic pain and immersing me in more than a decade of practice in Chinese internal martial and healing arts. My passion for fitness and holistic well-being flourished, earning me certifications as a Personal Trainer and Boxing coach, while actively engaging in white-collar boxing matches.

Enlight Holistic Fitness

During my eight years as a full-time personal trainer in London, I expanded my expertise, gaining additional qualifications as a strength and conditioning coach and sports massage therapist. In 2015, I founded Enlight Holistic Fitness, aiming to balance holistic health practices with more conventional forms of gym based exercise.

Path to Physiotherapy

A quest for deeper understanding of human anatomy and rehabilitation led me to pursue Physiotherapy at King’s College London. I graduated with a first class Hons in 2022 whilst gaining experience in a variety of NHS settings. Since qualifying, I’ve focussed my clinical development in the assessment, treatment, and management of musculoskeletal, sports, and orthopaedic conditions.

My Approach

As a physio, I’m motivated towards educating patients on managing their injuries and making the rehab process more approachable. Using my broad background in martial arts, holistic health and personal training, I aim to create engaging, evidence-based treatment plans that include a combination of hands on therapy, exercise, education and onward referral if required. My personal and professional experiences have aided me to assist a wide range of patients, from youths to seniors, in managing their conditions and receiving positive feedback.

Lifelong Learning

I remain dedicated to continuous professional development and regularly attend courses and shadow esteemed clinicians to learn from them. This enables me to stay at the forefront of physiotherapy and provide the most current and effective treatments.
