Laura Collins – Chartered Physiotherapist MCSP HCPC
Laura specialised in musculoskeletal and sport injuries soon after qualifying as a physiotherapist from Coventry University in 2004. Prior to this, she graduated from Loughborough University with a BSc in Sport Science and Physical Education, specialising in sport psychology, skill acquisition, fitness and training.
She worked first for the NHS in Worcestershire, gaining experience across a wide variety of specialities. During this period she also practised her physiotherapy skills volunteering at Worcester Warriors, Moseley Rugby club, and a variety of hockey clubs, before moving to private practice.
Laura is passionate about the functional rehabilitation of all her patients and maximising people’s potential through using manual techniques and creating succinct but effective exercise programmes. She is also qualified in the use of acupuncture, which she uses regularly to enhance her treatments.
Laura enjoys running and has tried her hand at events such as Tough Guy and half marathons, however it is as a hockey player that she has developed a true understanding of injuries, sport and physiotherapy. Playing at the highest level of hockey, at a national and international level, has enabled her to understand the need for athletes to rehabilitate as quickly as possible; the need to be ready for the next weekend, game or training session.
