Kit is a highly experienced Women’s Health and Pelvic Health Physiotherapist with a longstanding interest in pelvic floor health, continence and women’s wellbeing. Her background in community and women’s health physiotherapy has shaped a holistic, individualised approach to care, with a strong focus on helping each person feel understood, supported and confident throughout their treatment.

Kit has worked alongside obstetrician and gynaecologist Dr Ken Leong, providing personalised, evidence-based physiotherapy care for women throughout pregnancy, postnatal recovery and the different stages of life.

Becoming a mother of two further deepened Kit’s understanding of the physical and emotional changes associated with pregnancy, childbirth and recovery. She also spent several years working as a physiotherapist in a specialist school, supporting children and adolescents with additional needs. This experience developed a particular passion for improving bladder and bowel health in children with disabilities and additional needs, while reinforcing the importance of patience, clear communication and care that is genuinely tailored to the individual.
​
With extensive clinical experience and ongoing professional development in pelvic and women’s health, Kit is passionate about helping women and children improve their function, confidence and quality of life. She takes a compassionate, practical approach to care, working collaboratively with each patient to support their individual goals and long-term wellbeing.
