• Ally has experience working with people of all ages and abilities and is committed to helping each individual feel supported, strong, and capable.

• She is currently undergoing her APPI Pilates training and is excited to combine her background in fitness and her physiotherapy degree to help others move and feel better with confidence and safety within our Pilates classes!

•🤍• Loughshore Physio is delighted to welcome Kath to our team! We have been looking to find the right person to join our clinic now for quite some time- and we couldn’t have hoped for a better addition!

• We will now, at long last be adding some additional classes to our timetable, both Beginners Mat Pilates and our brand new Loughshore Longevity Class - a mixture of mat and standing Pilates poses with a slower pace. This new class has been a popular request for many patients looking to continue their rehab under physio supervision.
~ Keep an eye out for future posts with more info on our new classes and don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’d like to book a class, private session or arrange a group booking!

• Now a little about Kath 🤍

~Since graduating in 2015, she has worked as a Physiotherapist in both the NHS and within public healthcare in Australia. Her diverse experience spans a range of specialties including Cardiology, Post-surgical rehabilitation, trauma, and orthopaedics.

🤍 With this amazing skill set and experience, it is with great pleasure we can now offer another frequently requested service of post- surgical/ post hospital admission Physio AT HOME!
(more info to come on this- so please pass this on to any family or friends who require a home visit physio service)

~ In 2020, she completed her Pilates instructor training in Melbourne and has been teaching ever since. She is passionate about helping people move well and remain injury-free through a combination of evidence-based physiotherapy and functional movement training.

~ When not at work, you’ll find her cuddling her dog, lost in a good book, or out clocking up miles as she trains for her upcoming marathon.

• So, a lot of info to take in on one post, but we hope we can accommodate and see many more new faces over these next few months!

❔FAQs ❔

• We just wanted to post about some of the frequent questions we get through the week.

• The clinic is able to accept referrals and claims from all of the major health insurance companies. We have added a few of the most common on this post- but there are many more! Please get in touch if you would like to check if a policy/ company will be accepted here!

• All of our Physiotherapists are registered with the HCPC. This is the governing body for all health professionals and the required registration for using a health insurer.

• All of our Physiotherapists are also fully qualified Pilates instructors- so if a consultant or GP have recommended physio led Pilates classes then we are perfect for you!

• Additionally, each physio is registered with the AACP (Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists) so we can also offer acupuncture to treat any appropriate MSK related conditions if you have been recommended this as a treatment option.

• All clinicians within the clinic, both Physiotherapists and Podiatrists are able to make onward referrals to Specialists/ Consultants and also refer for further investigations such as MRI if appropriate. However, these referrals are for other private sector providers and not in to the NHS.

• If anyone has any other questions they would like us to post or provide updates on please just message or call us on 02893329932.
