Experienced clinicians, supportive care

Michelle is the Founder and Clinical Director of Pro‑Form Physio, with 13 years’ experience as a physiotherapist, including over 10 years specialising in musculoskeletal physiotherapy. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy and has built a broad and highly respected clinical skillset across both NHS and private practice. She began her career within the NHS, working across large Trusts and alongside orthopaedic consultants, GP doctors and advanced physiotherapy services. Through these roles, Michelle gained extensive experience in complex case management, advanced assessment, and onward referral pathways. This includes imaging interpretation, detailed medical history screening, and referral for injections, specialist investigations and surgical opinion where appropriate.

Alongside her physiotherapy background, Michelle is a qualified personal trainer with a strong personal interest in gym‑based training and fitness. This allows her to deliver highly individualised exercise programmes, carefully tailored to each client’s ability, goals and lifestyle – whether returning to sport, work or everyday activity.

Michelle places strong emphasis on education and empowerment, ensuring clients fully understand their condition, treatment options and recovery pathway. She is deeply committed to guiding clients through their entire rehabilitation journey, often spending additional time discussing wider treatment planning – including what to do if physiotherapy alone is not sufficient.

She is known for providing ongoing support beyond appointments, remaining accessible via email and the clinic WhatsApp line wherever possible. This includes clear guidance on when further medical assessment is required. Most recently Michelle advised a client presenting with severe shin pain to attend urgent care due to concern for a stress fracture – imaging later confirmed multiple tibial stress fractures, allowing timely referral back to orthopaedics. This level of proactive, patient‑centred care reflects the standard she strives to provide for every client. Michelle is passionate about creating a safe, supportive and nurturing environment, recognising the strong link between psychological wellbeing and physical recovery. She regularly supports clients not only with injury rehabilitation, but also with confidence, reassurance and long‑term health education to help clients move forward both physically and mentally.
