Graduate Sports Therapist
I am a graduate sports therapist from the University of Gloucestershire. I have worked in a variety of sports including Rugby, Football, American Football and Volleyball. Through experiences with fantastic organizations the likes of Oxford Brooks American Football Club, Gloucester RFC, and Gloucestershire University Volleyball Club I have developed my knowledge of injury assessment, treatment and rehabilitation. Having many years of experience as a youth coach and understand the needs and demands placed on young athletes as they develop their athletic journey.
I am capable in delivering various treatments including: massage, manual therapy, electro therapy, KinesoTape application, whilst building personalized programs to get athletes back to what they love doing most. When it comes to training, I am a huge advocate of quality over quantity. I am constantly looking to expand my own knowledge and treatment methods through CPD, as well as individual experiences by developing authentic rapport with clients.
In my spare time I am quite an active individual. When not planning/training for bike packing trips across the UK, I coach and play Volleyball, run, surf and rock climb. My interests and experiences have driven me to broaden my understanding the various areas of health and fitness. Having worked through my own injuries, I understand that there is no single approach towards rehabilitation and being pain free.

2015. Using her now-retro GT MTB, she rode a local Western League Cyclocross race and was hooked! In her second season back she won the Cyclocross National Title in the Vet 55-59 category, relishing the tough Bradford course. She now rides for Team MAGSPEED.
‘As a masters athlete, it is even more important to keep my body in tip top condition! NMSPT have been instrumental in rehabbing a calf injury from last season and also helping me to recover fully so that I can put in the considerable training I need to succeed. The pre-race treatment I receive from Harriet will allow me to go into my races with the best possible chance of success! Thank you so much to the team for giving me this wonderful opportunity to be the best I can be! Watch this space for the results as my racing season begins next weekend.‘
