Who I am
I’m Jo — a Chartered Physiotherapist and Pilates specialist with over 23 years’ experience helping people move better, feel stronger, and recover with confidence. My approach blends clinical skill with a whole-person perspective, addressing not just pain or injury, but the movement patterns, habits, and stresses that shape everyday wellbeing.
My early career in respiratory physiotherapy gave me a deep understanding of the vital connection between breath, posture, and the nervous system. I’m also a certified BradCliff Breathing Method practitioner, trained in the clinical assessment and treatment of dysfunctional breathing. This work supports clients recovering from issues such as Long Covid or chronic stress, and it underpins much of my practice — whether we’re working on pain, posture, or performance.
Over the past 9 years, I’ve focused on musculoskeletal physiotherapy and movement rehabilitation. I’m a Level 3 trained Pilates instructor, offering 1:1 and group support to help people improve strength, mobility, and body awareness — whether they’re recovering from injury, managing long-term conditions, or simply seeking to move with more ease and balance.
As a lifelong horse owner and rider, I also offer rider-specific support, including Pilates for Riders classes and Equipilates™ workshops. With specialist training in rider biomechanics and ongoing study in Equine Assisted Physiotherapy, I help riders develop the symmetry, postural control, and stability needed for clear, confident communication in the saddle.
At Fosse Physiotherapy, I aim to offer care that is clinically grounded, personally tailored, and enriched by a deep respect for the body’s capacity to adapt and recover. So if you’re managing injury, persistent pain, or performance limitations, I’ll work with you to create a personalised path forward — one that supports your whole self, not just the part that hurts.
