About Neurokinetica
Neurokinetica is a therapeutic framework—a heartfelt response to the quiet gaps where traditional care leaves chronic illness unmet and unheard. It blends clinical physiotherapy with somatic education, breath-led movement, and restorative practices to support nervous system regulation, physical resilience, and embodied awareness.
Why Neurokinetica?
The name Neurokinetica brings together two key ideas: “neuro”, referring to the nervous system, and “kinetica”, from the Greek kinesis, meaning movement. At its core, the word speaks to the dynamic relationship between the brain, body, and lived experience.
It reflects the belief that movement is therapy—not just in the physical sense, but in its impact on the brain and its role in shaping how we feel, function, and heal. Movement positively influences inflammation, mood, energy, pain, and cognitive clarity. It shifts our biology at the deepest level, and when approached intentionally, becomes a direct pathway to restoring health and self-trust.
-
Long, curious conversations about habits, stress, sleep and daily rhythms. Breathwork, mobility and somatic practices. Strength work that feels nourishing, not punishing. Education and reflection that help you connect the dots in your own experience.
-
Passive treatments like manual therapy, acupuncture. Approaches that reduce the body to isolated parts or symptoms. Neurokinetica is not about fixing you—it’s about helping you participate more fully in your own healing.
“When an illness is incurable it can still be possible to ‘recover’ — in the sense of building towards a life of greater dignity and autonomy.”
— Gavin Francis, author of “Recovery: The Lost Art of Convalescence”
My story
Understanding how psychosocial factors and nervous system dysregulation influence our health has profoundly shaped my approach to care. My work centres on integrative strategies that address the interplay of body, mind, and environment—supporting people in discovering sustainable ways to feel better and live well.
My journey began with yoga—as a way to discover movement and experience stillness as pathways to meet myself with compassion, after years of experiencing exercise as punishing. Over time, yoga became a practice of mental resilience and a way to access a sense of quiet calmness. Later, this path expanded into physiotherapy, where I deepened my understanding of biomechanics, physiology, clinical exercise, rehabilitation, and evidence-based care. Along the way, I’ve worked with people living with chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, persistent pain, burnout, and stress—and witnessed the transformative power of personalised, integrated support.
Living with my own diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis has deepened my understanding of persistent symptoms, cognitive fatigue, and what it means to navigate an incurable illness. It has shaped my belief in compassionate, person-centred care that honours both the challenges and the possibilities of long-term conditions.
This work is deeply personal to me, and Neurokinetica was born from that lived experience—a framework designed to address the very gaps I’ve encountered. Blending clinical knowledge with therapeutic presence, my mission is to support others in navigating complex symptoms with greater understanding, autonomy, and ease.
