Ali’s mission is simple but powerful: to empower people to live well, free from the restrictions of pain. With over ten years of experience, she takes an integrative approach, blending bodywork, movement, and stretching to help the body find its own natural path to healing.
Her treatments are both research-based and intuitive. Many clients remark on Ali’s unique ability to identify and resolve issues they weren’t even aware of — preventing problems before they become bigger concerns.
Ali has learned not only through formal study, but also through close collaboration with physiotherapists, exercise physiologists, and Pilates instructors. This teamwork has given her a deep understanding of biomechanics and the ripple effect that poor movement patterns can have on muscles, fascia, and joint alignment.
She is currently completing her Studio Pilates Certification with Polestar International, adding another powerful tool to support her clients in their wellness journeys.
Special Interests
Ali is particularly passionate about lymphoedema management and scar tissue release.
-
- Five years ago, she trained in lymphoedema management, a decision that has since become one of her greatest joys. She loves helping clients reduce pain, swelling, and fatigue so they can live more comfortably.
- Her interest in scar and fascial release began while working with oncology and lymphoedema clients who had undergone surgeries such as mastectomies, lymph node removals, and port placements. This passion has since expanded to include supporting people after caesareans, tummy tucks, breast implant or explant surgeries, orthopaedic procedures, and more.
