Anna Loughead is a Specialist Musculo-Skeletal Physiotherapist.  Graduating in 2000 from Northumbria University with BSc (Hons) Anna worked in the NHS for many years.  She then moved into the private sector to utilise her hands on manual therapy skills, and persue her interest in Ante-natal and Post-natal rehabilitation.

Anna, mother to 3 children, also enjoys all aspects of health and fitness.  Anna trained to a high standard in ballet and with her daughters following her example, has a specialist interest in treating and rehabilitating amateur and professional dancers.

Physiotherapy helps to restore movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability.  Through movement and exercise, manual therapy, education and advice, we seek to empower patients in their recovery.

From her dancing and fitness background Anna is also keen on the use of Pilates exercises, and core strengthening, particularly in the long term management of musculo-skeletal problems.

Anna has a post-graduate qualification in foot biomechanics, and can advise on footwear or carry out biomechanical assessments where appropriate.
