Working Background:
Claire has been working as an upper limb specialist for many years and has a wealth of experience in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy. Whilst working in private practice in London, Claire had the opportunity to work in The Shoulder Unit at the Hospital of St John and St Elizabeth. This was the beginning of Claire’s road to specialising in the treatment and rehabilitation of surgical and non-surgical shoulder injuries.
Claire has continued this work with her move to Sevenoaks in 2005 and has built up a close working relationship with shoulder specialists. She continues to incorporate all aspects of physiotherapy into the rehabilitation of these patients.
She has a special interest in shoulder rehabilitation and shoulder disorders and hypermobility but also works with the team at Manor clinic treating a wide range of injuries using her skills of Clinical Pilates, Acupuncture and Rehabilitation.
