Physiotherapist
Therapist

My career at HFTK began as a client when I was looking for help for my long-standing lower limb problem.

I was so impressed by the work of my current colleagues and HFTK's unique philosophy and way of finding and treating the root cause of the problem that I wanted to get involved.

I graduated as a physiotherapist in 2020. I am specialised in musculoskeletal physiotherapy, maternal and pelvic floor physiotherapy and fascia manipulation (Stecco I). I treat active and less active exercisers, athletes, adults and babies. You can come to my clinic because of various musculoskeletal pains and movement limitations, for example, tension headaches, "mouse hand", back and shoulder pains, pains in the lower extremities. My practice also provides help with recovery from childbirth, pain and dysfunction during pregnancy, and pelvic floor dysfunction. I also treat various surgical scars (eg. C-section, breast cancer, knee surgery) tightness.

My previous education is Master of Science in Economics and Business Administration. As someone who has experienced busy and stressful office work and has since found my passion for working as a physiotherapist, my approach to work also reflects the psychophysical approach. I think about the connection between bodily symptoms and mental well-being and the person's current overall load. In addition, I have a long background as an instructor and coach of various sports (SomaticPilates instructor, yin yoga instructor, snowboarding/ski instructor, baby swim instructor, competitive cheerleading, cheer dance), so I have a good understanding of body movements and the impact of possible movement impairments on body function.

I enjoy meeting different patients and solving problems. It is important to me that every client feels heard in my practice. 

You are warmly welcome!
