We asked Kim a few questions
Tell me about the business Established for over 25 years, Kim and her business partner Nik with a team of experienced therapists offer a range of therapy treatments for everybody– from injury treatment and prevention, Sports therapy, Osteopathy, Remedial and Sports Massage, Muscle Activation, Fascial Stretch Therapy, Podiatry and Beauty therapy (Withdean Treatment Rooms) - at their up-to- date premises in the Withdean Sports Complex. What do you aim to achieve for clients? “Our Continuing Professional Development commitment means we are using the latest therapy techniques. We take time to listen to people and understand the root cause of their symptoms and when we advise treatment we make sure they understand how they can achieve lasting results with simple exercises and adjustments to posture.” What excites you most about the job? Kim has treated plenty of fit young athletes – including Olympic and world champion runner Sally Gunnell who she has travelled with to competitions – but is passionate about helping people of all ages achieve an active and pain-free life: “We are passionate about getting people back to doing what they love the most.” “Simply walking is a wonderful exercise and people should do it as often as they can. Combined with simple muscle exercises using body-weight resistance, this can help us get so much more from life as we grow older. We have a range of specialised treatment techniques to help get all individuals back to doing what they enjoy most” |
