Heather is an osteopath specialising in hands on manual therapy, assessment, diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, exercise rehabilitation, patient education including occupational and injury prevention advice.

Heather graduated from the New Zealand College of Massage in 2001 specialising in clinical Remedial massage, Neuromuscular and Trigger Point Therapy, Lymphatic drainage and Myofascial release. Further UK study has included sports injuries management and treatment and exercise rehabilitation and coaching.

She completed the Integrated Masters degree in Osteopathy from the British School of Osteopathy (BSO), a 5 year program which included 2 years clinical experience at the BSO clinic and community clinics for the elderly, homeless and children.

Heather furthered her study with osteopathy because it reflects her beliefs on treatment of the human body treating the person as a whole and to gain a better understanding of medical pathology and differential diagnosis.


"As a professional athlete I sometimes didn't look forward to my massage appointment but that has totally changed when I have been working with Heather and it's now my weekly routine to go and see her when I'm home in London!
She is the Best of the Best!"
