Galvanise was born from a lifetime in elite sport — and a journey through injury, resilience, and reinvention.

Founded in 2008 after retiring from international competition as a Marathon Runner, Elite Duathlete and Triathlete, Galvanise began as a way to continue serving the athletic world I loved. Having competed at the highest levels, I knew first-hand the physical demands of performance — but even more so, the realities of injury, recovery, and the long road back.

In the final years of my competitive career, I underwent three knee operations, followed over the next decade by two more, including a complete knee replacement. Add to that countless surgical procedures — and yet, through every setback, I kept moving. I continued to race in triathlons, compete in time trials, and cycle solo across continents. Movement wasn’t just something I did — it was something I refused to give up.

The therapists who kept me going inspired me to take the same path. Over the years, I expanded my expertise to understand injuries with depth and precision: backs, shoulders, chronic pain, biomechanics, strength asymmetry, and post-surgical recovery. In 2024, after intensive rehabilitation in Denver, Colorado, I certified in Dry Needling and deepened my clinical knowledge further.

Through my clients, I’ve learned that body composition and muscular distribution influence injury patterns, strength, and resilience. I now work with a wide range of people — from top-performing masters athletes to absolute beginners, and individuals relearning to walk after stroke, surgery, or medical complications.

What makes Galvanise different is the unique combination of lived elite athletic experience, a long personal journey through recovery, and hands-on clinical skill. It creates a level of understanding, empathy, and insight clients immediately feel. I don’t just treat injuries — I’ve lived them.

Galvanise exists to help people repair, rebuild, and perform — because I have proven that it’s possible.
