Jo-Anne has a BSc (Hons) in Sports Therapy from Teesside University and is a member of the Society of Sports Therapists.

Jo-Anne says “Sports therapy can be used to address a range of injuries; I use therapeutic techniques for the prevention, recognition and treatment of minor sports injuries. I can also help people wanting to maintain and improve fitness; it’s not just for athletes.

I use tried and tested techniques that reduce soreness and improve endurance and flexibility, as well as treat injuries and assist with rehabilitation. My aim is to prevent injuries and to help those who are injured to return to full fitness.”
