About Fiona

I have spent nearly three decades working with bodies through movement, therapy and rehabilitation.

Over the years my work has gradually focused more and more on supporting people whose bodies have been through significant change — whether that change comes from cancer treatment, surgery, injury or simply the natural changes that come with age. As my focus has changed, my training has been built around these needs.

Experience and Approach

My background combines many years of work in movement, bodywork and rehabilitation. I have always been fascinated by how the body adapts and how the right support can help people regain confidence in movement.

My approach is gentle, thoughtful and practical. I aim to help people understand what is happening in their body so they feel less fearful and more confident moving forward.

Why I Specialised in Lymphatic and Cancer Support

Like many practitioners working in this field, my interest in cancer recovery and lymphatic health grew through both professional experience and personal connections.

I saw how many people were left trying to navigate swelling, scar tissue, fatigue and uncertainty about exercise after treatment.

This led me to undertake specialist training in Manual Lymphatic Drainage, oncology-informed movement and scar therapy so I could better support people through recovery.

Supporting the Whole Person

Recovery is not only physical. Many people also carry anxiety, loss of confidence and uncertainty about what their body can safely do.

My aim is to create a calm, supportive space where people can ask questions, learn about their body and gradually rebuild strength and confidence.

Community and Ongoing Learning

Alongside my clinical work I remain actively involved in professional development and community support projects, particularly those supporting people living with and beyond cancer.

Learning continues to be an important part of my work so that I can offer safe, informed and effective support to the people I work with.

People often come to see me with questions such as:

   • why does my arm feel heavy after cancer treatment?

   • Why does scar tissue feel tight or painful?

   • How can I return to movement safely?

These are exactly the questions many of my blog articles explore.
