After qualifying with 1st class Honors in Physiotherapy from Cardiff University in 2019, Holly has spent the last few years completing NHS rotations across Edinburgh. This provided opportunities to work with clients from many specialties, with differing rehab goals and physical challenges. From busy acute wards to busy and varied physio clinics, Holly has developed the skills, knowledge and understanding in all core physio specialties – neurology, cardiorespiratory and musculoskeletal/orthopedics. With this, Holly is excited to come home to Northern Ireland and progress her journey in private practice.
Alongside being an energetic, enthusiastic and dedicated Physiotherapist, Holly is a qualified Yoga and Pilates teacher. Trained in Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga and APPI Matwork Pilates, Holly truly believes in the power of movement, body awareness and mind-body methods. Aiming to instil in clients/students an appreciation and sense of wonder at their own bodies, focusing on what they can do and not their limitations. You can be assured there is always a sense of play and light-heartedness to Holly’s classes, allowing you to detach from self-judgement or intimidation and instead connect back to yourself – mind and body.
Holly’s physio practice is individual to each client and their rehab goals. Built upon seeing each person holistically, helping them understand, be aware of and appreciate their body. Providing manual techniques, exercise prescription, Pilates and Yoga principles, 1:1 sessions and movement/postural education.
As a trained dancer and Yoga teacher, Holly has a special interest in hypermobility and foot health (barefoot principles). In addition, Holly has an adventurous spirit, fulfilled through wild/cold water swimming, hiking, sailing, surfing, trail running and climbing/coasteering, with a commitment to strength and conditioning training in the gym. She is always found encouraging folk into the cold water, keen for them reap the physical and mental benefits!
Holly would be delighted to be a part of your rehab journey, whether that be in the physio clinic or Yoga/Pilates studio.
