Kate is an integrative physiotherapist who works with patients whose symptoms don’t fit neatly into one system—where hypermobility, autonomic variability, pain sensitisation, fatigue, and nervous system overload intersect. Her approach is holistic, evidence-based, and grounded in nervous-system-aware care, supporting people whose bodies require more nuance than standard rehabilitation models allow.
Kate brings a calm, adaptable, and future-focused style to complex presentations. Drawing on her training in yoga-based nervous system care, pain science, and clinical Pilates, she helps clients rebuild movement confidence while respecting physiological limits. Her goal is not just recovery, but resilience—supporting people to return to the activities they love with greater safety, capacity, and self-trust.
Kate provides physiotherapy tailored to the unique movement demands of hypermobility spectrum disorders and Ehlers–Danlos syndromes. She understands that joint laxity changes how the whole system functions—altering muscle recruitment, increasing energy expenditure, amplifying pain sensitivity, and placing additional load on the autonomic nervous system.
Working within Biio’s dysautonomia pathway, Kate assesses how autonomic changes affect posture, movement tolerance, and recovery. Treatment focuses on gradually widening upright tolerance through carefully paced, horizontal-to-vertical exercise progression, threshold-based loading, and personalised self-management strategies. Her nervous-system-aware approach supports regulation alongside physical conditioning, helping clients build capacity without overwhelming already sensitive systems.
Kate has a strong interest in pain science and works with people whose pain is shaped by central sensitisation and prolonged nervous system stress. She treats pain as a whole-person experience rather than a purely structural problem, integrating education, movement, and regulation strategies to reduce threat and restore confidence.
Kate is a Clinical Pilates and Yoga teacher. She emphasises control, alignment, breath-led movement, and functional integration. Her Pilates work supports strength and stability while remaining adaptable for hypermobility, dysautonomia, chronic pain, and fatigue presentations. Sessions are carefully progressed and always responsive to the client’s nervous system, energy levels, and goals—supporting both rehabilitation and long-term movement confidence.
