The Team

Katie understands that walking into physiotherapy rooms can be daunting for some. 

Katie has joined us here at Palms Physiotherapy to offer reassurance and work with you to set achievable goals whether it be treating your neck and shoulder pain so you can hang out the washing, or your low back pain so you can pick up your children or be effective at work or sit comfortably at a desk;  improving your knee and ankle mobility so you can enjoy playing competitive netball or walk the tracks of Machu Pichu and tick that off your bucket list!

Whatever your goals big or small Katie is here to help using the latest evidence to treat a variety of conditions. 

When not at work Katie can be found enjoying cooking and vegetable gardening and looking after the families’ horses and dogs. She also enjoys supporting her two children and husband in their various sporting endeavours. And in her “spare” spare time, an avid swimmer Katie has just taken up water polo which enables her to combine the water with her love of team sports. And goes to show it is never too late to start something new!

Outside of work, Olivia can be found in the gym lifting weights, running, reading a book with a cup of coffee or teaching herself a new hobby, such as crochet!
