If your looking for a sports therapist , this is the best I’ve ever had, I’ve known Isy since I moved to Spain 5 years ago. I was disappointed when she told me she was moving back too the UK. Anyone would be lucky too have such a good therapist. Her knowledge is second to none and she has alot of knowledge with different methods.
If your in need of help with any injuries her technique is amazng. My husband had a bad back for such a long time. A few sessions with Isy got him back on track and playing better golf. I also had many massages with Isy she kept me going with my golf. She’s amazing . Highly recommend her, wish she was on my doorstep. 😊😊

I’ve been seeing Isy for a few months now following a lot of neck and shoulder pain. I’d had spinal surgery many years ago and have a metal rod in my spine to correct scoliosis. I was unsure if anything could be done and that it was just the long term effects from surgery, however Isy has worked magic on my neck using various methods of massage, acupuncture and suction cups and given me exercises to do at home. I am now pain free with a full range of motion and can’t thank her enough. Her friendly professional approach gave me confidence and the sessions were informative and enlightening! Thank you so much ☺️If your in need of help with any injuries her technique is amazng. My husband had a bad back for such a long time.

Isy has helped me more than words can describe! Over the last year I’ve broken back, skull fracture, humerus, pelvis, femur. My body was becoming seriously compromised- even my supposedly good bits hurt and weren’t working!! Very quickly with Isy’s help I improved enormously. I had rather resigned myself that I would have to put up with things I just couldn’t do anymore! Oh no!! Now I am walking better, my stride is longer. I am stretching parts of my body that were stuck. I’m competing more on my horses again and winning, recently qualifying for HOYS. I’m managing my new job as a fitness instructor not looking quite so crooked and able to perform a lot more of the exercises!! Thank you isn’t enough, this old broken thing is beginning to get inspired what to test her body with next..:come on the next challenge!!

Outside the clinic

Outside the clinic, Isy enjoys a balanced life in Hereford with her fiancé James. She loves cooking together, discovering new restaurants, and sharing wine and cheese nights. She also enjoys catching up with friends, exploring local areas, and spending relaxed downtime with a long bath, paint-by-numbers, or a jigsaw puzzle.

Having lived in Spain for many years, Isy learnt the importance of slowing down and enjoying life. That Spanish influence still stays with her — reminding her to live as a human being, not a human doing. This balance helps her recharge and brings a calm, grounded energy to her work with clients.
