Helping you back to health
I am a Totnes based Physiotherapist with 30 years experience working in hospitals, clinics and home settings.
What I do
- Treatment at home
- Recovery following a hospital admission, accident or illness including longer term disabilities such as stroke
- Skilled advice and treatment options for all range of ailments or pain related conditions
- Link with social prescribing options and community groups (if requested) and consider wider aspects to your physical and mental wellbeing.
My Mum is 98 years of age and Carolina supported her in getting home following a hospital operation and significantly transforming her quality of life. Mum has regained her spirit of independence and we, as her two daughters are so incredibly grateful.

- Stroke and neurological conditions
- Falls or difficulties with mobility / balance
- Joint, muscle or ligament issues / pain
- Exercise plans aimed at getting you where you want to be
- Options of hydrotherapy, gym or sports centre based sessions

Pricing
I offer a sliding scale according to circumstance. Home visit prices may vary depending on your needs and my travel requirements. Do please contact me for a chat, or send a message and I will get back to you within 2 working days.
I am fully covered by the major health insurers and can manage your course of treatment accordingly.
Carolina has been so kind, and I look forwards to my sessions each week. I always know I am going to enjoy them – despite difficulties I have with my walking. She is patient with me, and that makes a difference.
