Carol Carr Heads Up Physiotherapist
Carol has over 30 years of experience having qualified as a physiotherapist in 1992.
She knew from her early days in physiotherapy she wanted to specialise in neurology. Having initially worked in West Yorkshire, she then returned south to work at Epsom District Hospital. From there Carol moved to work at Harrowlands, a specialist neurological rehabilitation centre in Dorking, Surrey, and whilst there, she was involved in the early days of heads up!, helping to establish its reputation.
Her most recent role was as Head of Therapies at Queen Elizabeth Foundation’s Care and Rehabilitation Centre in Leatherhead. Carol was able to use her expert clinical skills, knowledge of neuro rehabilitation to develop a wide range of services. She joined heads up! again in 2022, returning to treating patients rather than managing a service.
Carol is trained in the Bobath Concept, completing 5 advanced courses, and has supported people following neurological injury or disease for the past 30 years. She is always keen to actively include everyone involved in the rehabilitation process and focuses on what’s most important for the people she treats. She has a holistic approach to treatment and incorporates all aspects of a person’s life into the rehab process.
At heads up! Carol is now able to do what she loves most – hands on treatment to directly influence rehabilitation for those affected by neurological disability.
