Ashleigh Cattle

Position: Chiropractor
Categories: Chiropractor

Originally from Welwyn Garden City, Ashleigh graduated from the prestigious AECC University College in Bournemouth with a first class integrated master’s degree in chiropractic. She is registered with the General Chiropractic Council and the British Chiropractic Association and was awarded full membership of the Royal College of Chiropractors in 2019.

Having always been interested in health and fitness from a young age, Ashleigh competed at a county- national level in tennis, swimming, biathlon, middle- distance running and cross country. Ashleigh injured her knee at the age of 16 and struggled to find anyone who could help her until she found chiropractic. The help and support she gained from the profession made her want to study to become a chiropractor herself so she could foreseeably help others who are in pain like she was.

Ashleigh loves treating patients of all ages and uses a combination of techniques including joint manipulation and mobilisation, soft tissue work, dry needling, taping methods and exercise rehabilitation/ stretching and tailors this to every patient she sees.

She believes that it is important to not only treat the symptoms, but to also figure out the cause of the problem so that it can be prevented from coming back in the future.

Alongside sport and chiropractic, Ashleigh enjoys catching up with friends and family, travelling and eating out!

Amanda Lonergan

Position: Hypnotherapist
Categories: Hypnotherapist

Amanda originally graduated from De Montfort University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology of Human Communication and French. She has since qualified as a hypnotherapist (Cert Hyp CS) and is able to offer a variety of treatments, in particular for anxiety and chronic pain.

Amanda takes a “working together” approach in her sessions and considers hypnotherapy to be one of the most empowering therapies there is. She says “I lay the groundwork to enable the client to make the changes they require, opposed to making the change happen myself. Ultimately the only person who can change their perspective and make things happen is the individual themselves. The more open the individual is to the possibilities hypnotherapy can offer; the more hypnotherapy can offer the individual.”

Sarah Baker

Position: Tai Chi Teacher
Categories: The Studio

Sarah Jayne Baker has been a Tai Chi Practitioner for more than 35 years, trained through the Bryan Nuttall and John Reed – with direct lineage to Li Deyin a founding master of the Beijing Short Form.

Sarah Jayne teaches the many principles and applications with a dash of fun and shows direct links between this ancient “soft” martial art and everyday life with practical ways to use Tai Chi in the modern world – not just something to practice in class.

At is simplest Tai Chi is a falls prevention system, teaching students how to gain confidence in movement through creating stability. Gaining understanding of the form and philosophy it is built upon, leads to the understanding “motion is lotion”, and Tai Chi is a powerful low impact, strength building, gentle exercise that also brings mindfulness to those studying.

At it’s most complex Tai Chi is considered a complete health system that improves lung function, mental health and improves internal organ health too, all while being simply focussed on slow precise movement.

‘Having discovered the benefits of Pilates 10 years ago, and progressing to an advanced level over the past 7 years with the help of Body Control Pilates teachers’, I decided to enrol myself on a matwork teaching course with Body Control Pilates.  Body Control Pilates teacher training course is the most comprehensive of its kind in the world and is widely seen as an international benchmark.  Following completion of their extensive and rigorous matwork course I qualified as a Pilates Level 3 Matwork teacher in September 2021. Since then I’ve also completed a course in bone health enabling me to teach people with Osteoporosis and Osteopenia.

 

The Body Control Pilates teaching method will help you rebalance your body – achieving the perfect balance of strength and flexibility.  Pilates will help you find, understand and maintain better posture, you will learn how to breathe more efficiently and improve your core stability.  By targeting the deep postural muscles of your body, you will literally build strength from the inside out.  Perfect for athletes looking to enhance their performance and minimise the risk of injury, Pilates is also ideal for first-time exercisers of all ages. ‘

Homam Limam

Position: Chiropractor
Categories: Chiropractor

Being a member of the Team GB Olympic Wrestling development Team, Homam suffered an agonizing lower back injury in his teenage years whilst training at the national training center. His chiropractic journey began here where he saw a Chiropractor in London who helped him get back on the mat and competing again. 8 years later, after a turbulent yet empowering journey as a student athlete, Homam graduated with an integrated Masters in Chiropractic whilst still competing in Olympic Wrestling internationally. Outside of his sporting career Homam is also a UKCC level 2 Wrestling coach for both kids and adults at his Wrestling club in London.

Naturally, Homam has a special interest in Sports Chiropractic. As with any athlete he has faced a number of hurdles along the way having endured two consecutive ACL reconstructions and a bucket handle meniscus repair on the same knee as well as an MCL tear injury on his other side. His experience firsthand as a patient combined with his knowledge of functional anatomy and research into exercise rehabilitation have all contributed to his competence in treating peripheral joints in a more holistic manner, considering causes further along the human kinetic chain.

Homam uses a combination of Chiropractic manipulation, active release techniques, mobilisations and other soft tissue techniques. Having also studied the McTimoney Technique at university he is also able to perform more gentle techniques which best suit the patients’ needs. He is currently registered with the General Chiropractic Council and United Chiropractic Association.

Homam is a firm believer of patient centered care and is extremely driven to change people’s lives no matter their age or activity levels, just as the profession has changed his.
