B. Physiotherapy (Hons), La Trobe University, Australia 1998
Miffy has been working for almost 25 years in the field of Sports and Orthopaedics, in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, England and the UAE. In the UAE alone, she has worked for 15 years. Her special interests have always been around the mechanics of the body, and her physio philosophy is 'Improve the way the body moves, and you improve the condition'. Her favourite areas are lower limb injuries, especially knee injuries, particularly if they are related to her personally preferred sports - running, skiing, tennis and CrossFit. She has extensive knowledge and experience with tendon pathology, particularly long standing, failed tendons, as well as post-surgical rehab for knees and ankles. Miffy's main treatment utilises education, manual therapy and exercise - for strength, mobility, balance, power, coordination, movement patterns, taping and some dry needling. Her assessment is biomechanical in nature, looking for the cause of things going wrong, then helping you to correct it. Outside getting you better, Miffy keeps active with tennis, running and CrossFit, looking after her dog and the clinic Kitten. She travels whenever there is an opportunity, and sometimes when there isn't, and skis every winter.
