I’ve been working for Katie Bell since 2016. I’m a Senior MSK Outpatients Physiotherapist and MSK Ultrasonographer. I am passionate about finding the root cause of any injuries I am faced with, rather than fighting fires. I like the variety of patients we get at the clinic from adolescents, to athletes to the elderly. We have a very dynamic and inspiring team here at Katie Bell who work hard to support each other and provide the best treatment possible for our clients. I also love working at Katie Bell Physio because of… Kerry’s cakes!

Having previously played Rugby and Australian Rules Football, I have worked as a physiotherapist for a number of different teams, including Sheffield Rugby Club and Mens 9-a-side England Slayers Australian Rules Football team, as well as Great Britain Swans 18-a-side Australian Rules Side who were European champions 2016 and came 3rd at the International Cup in Melbourne in August 2017.

Having grown up down south I always wanted to be involved in sports either playing or helping my team however I could. Having played rugby since the age of 6 I managed to pick up a few injuries on the way and the rehabilitation process and the conditioning needed really interested me to pursue a career in physiotherapy. My hidden talent is organisation, specifically in regarding the ability to pack the dish washer and car!

I am one of the sports massage therapists here at KB physio and I joined the team in April of 2024. I am also a Pilates instructor so you might find me covering in the studio from time to time here too.

There isn’t a sport that I haven’t played over the years and I started Pilates at the insistence of my other half as a way of increasing my strength and preventing injury. It really does work! After attending a Pilates retreat in Kefalonia, I realised the benefits of Pilates for all and began my instructor training. Already a ski instructor and athletics coach, Pilates complimented my existing skills set and my new found knowledge and love of anatomy meant that sports massage was the next natural step.

Qualifications, Achievements, and Relevant Experience: – Level 3 sports massage therapy – Level 3 mat work Pilates, reformer – Level 3 emergency first aid – Level 2 UK athletics coach – Level 1 Be activated.

London Marathon 2019 3hrs 57mins 20 secs Comrades Ultra Marathon 10hrs 45mins 45secs Madeira Island Ultra Trail (60km) 10hrs 34mins 55secs

Hobbies, Hidden Talents, and More: I am a born and bred Londoner but despite now living ‘up north’ for longer than I lived in London for, I still can’t shake the accent! Sheffield is a very special place and you’ll often find me out running up and down the hills and dales of the Peak District or pounding the streets of the City Centre. I enjoy running further afield too, competing in the Comrades Ultra marathon in South Africa was a life changing experience and a whole new level of mental as well as a physical challenge. My race calendar is looking fairly quiet this year so I’ll be keen to talk about any new runs during your massage. I previously lived in the Italian Alps when I was a ski instructor so I think the peaks reminds me of that, although my Italian is a little rusty now.

I’ve been working for Katie Bell Physio since 2016 and am a fully qualified MLD therapist having trained here in the UK and at the renowned Dr Vodder School in Austria, where this specialised technique originated. This intensive training allowed me to study all aspects of this incredibly worthwhile and effective treatment, to include Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Decongestive/Compression Therapy. I have been working with clients who have lymphoedema, using MLD to improve their condition leading to a better quality of life. I’ve also worked with clients post operatively to speed up the healing process by using MLD.

I enjoy meeting new clients and I try to help them not just with physical problems but also emotional ones too. If people walk out of my door feeling better than when they arrived then I have done a good job. My desire to help clients with specific problems relating to lymphatic disorders evolved from my training over 30 years ago as a Massage Therapist and Further Education Teacher. This gave me a broad range of experience both hands-on and teaching in massage, anatomy and physiology. I am passionate about the more beneficial and challenging medical aspect that this treatment offers.

I feel valued as a member of the team at Katie Bell which is important to me. I feel supported by my colleagues and there is a very positive vibe at the clinic which our clients pick up on and embrace.

Qualifications, Achievements & Relevant Experience Vodder Manual Lymphatic Drainage CDT – Training in Ludlow and at the Vodder clinic in Austria 5 years experience as a Manual Lymphatic Drainage Therapist Using MLD to improve clients with lymphoedema Working with clients post operatively to speed up the healing process by using MLD Experience in Massage Therapy Hobbies, Hidden Talents & More Info Hobbies outside of work include cooking, entertaining friends and family. I love singing (in the car!), attending concerts, and going on holiday. I also like painting and sketching.

As a child I didn’t think too much about a career, I wanted to have a happy family life for my kids like I was lucky enough to have. Having completed a beauty therapy course in the eighties and also taught beauty, I decided to retrain after having my children to become an MLD therapist which gives me more job satisfaction.

I’ve been with Katie Bell Physio since 2021. I decided to specialise in the field of musculoskeletal Physiotherapy as a junior Physiotherapist in 2005. Since then I have completed post graduate courses to develop my skills and over the years I have treated a wide variety of people with all manner of different problems.

I have been a Physiotherapist since 2005 – how time flies! I like that there’s always opportunities to learn and develop my skills and I get great satisfaction from helping people achieve their health goals. Whether it’s recovering from an injury, managing a long term problem or supporting someone to be stronger for longer. I really enjoy working with people to improve their pain and give them the confidence, and ability to do what they want to do when they want to do it.

Katie Bell Physio is such a friendly place to work. When I first started I received lots of welcome messages which made me feel very comfortable. I like that KB Physiotherapy really values the local community. The staff here really do care and go that extra mile for their clients.

We enjoy camping and the great outdoors. We recently tried abseiling and canoeing – we had a great day and by cheating my daughter and I won the canoe race against my 2 sons. I do spend a lot of time taking my kids to their various sporting activities and embarrassing them (so they tell me) when I cheer them on. I enjoy reading when I have a quiet moment and I try to keep myself fit by participating in HIIT classes – I do like that post workout buzz.

As a working mum with 3 kids I am busy most of the time. I love being Physiotherapist, however when I was at school I wanted to become a Vet. I wasn’t successful getting into vet school so I graduated with an Honours degree in Biological Sciences from the University of Edinburgh in 2000. I used to participate in a lot of sport, particularly athletics and through injury I learnt about Physiotherapy. After graduation I worked as Physiotherapy assistant for a year in a Mental Health hospital – I loved this so much I decided to go back to University to become a Physiotherapist. As for a hidden talent, I don’t have one. I enjoy singing but my kids reassure me that it’s not a talent.
