Jo initially studied Sport & Exercise science at University in the UK, obtaining a BSC(Hons) degree, because of her involvement and passion for sports, but due to a natural eagerness to help others she was encouraged to pursue a career as a Physio.
Since qualifying as a Physio in 2004 in the UK, Jo has combined her physio work with another passion in life, travelling, and has spent time working in Australia, New Zealand and China gaining experience in many different fields of Physiotherapy and working with some amazing therapists.
Along the way, Jo has developed into a well rounded therapist whose focus is very much patient-led and loves problem solving in order to get her patients back to doing what they love most. Jo’s biggest attributes are in empathising, problem solving and inspiring change, and most importantly listening well to others. Her clinical strengths lie in a combination of using manual therapy, exercise prescription and education to get her patients better.
With many years experience, and qualifications gained, Jo has also invested a lot of time using Clinical Pilates, both mat-work and equipment- based, to either rehabilitate someone from injury or surgery, or to avoid problems arising and promote well-being. She’s passionate about Clinical Pilates after seeing so many people benefit so greatly from it, including herself.
When Jo isn’t working, she’s spending time outside somewhere, usually beach or trail, with her young family and exploring NZ.
