Pain Practitioner in London
A gentler and wiser approach to pain and recovery.
What if..?
Whether you’re looking to understand your pain more clearly, move with greater ease, or simply feel better in your body, this approach offers something different.
For many people, the cycle of pain and tension becomes a frustrating loop. You’ve tried treatment after treatment, hoping something will finally “fix” the problem. You might have been told it’s all in your head, or that nothing can be done. Perhaps you’ve even started to feel disconnected from your body altogether — unsure what to trust, or how to move without flaring things up.
But what if your day to day didn’t have to look like that?
What if it wasn’t about pushing through pain, or endlessly chasing the right diagnosis or technique — but about building a new kind of relationship with your body?
I offer a personalised, whole-you approach built around three key areas:
Gentle Manual Therapy
Light-touch approaches like McTimoney Chiropractic and the Emmett Technique can offer support when your body feels stuck, tense or overwhelmed—always guided by what feels safe and helpful for you.
Pain Coaching
Learn what modern pain science tells us about how pain works, why it can persist, and—most importantly—what you can do about it. Understanding pain is often the first step toward changing it.
Movement & Reconnection
Gentle, exploratory movement practices designed to help you reconnect with your body, calm your nervous system, and rediscover comfort and confidence in how you move.
What if pain recovery looked different?

Working Together
The approach I use is based on a simple but powerful shift in perspective: that meaningful, lasting recovery starts from within. That doesn’t mean going it alone — quite the opposite. It means being supported in learning more about your body, your pain, and your options — so you can begin to move, feel, and live with more clarity and confidence.
In sessions, I offer a space where you can slow down, learn, and explore — without pressure or judgement. Whether we’re working with movement, manual therapy, or pain coaching, the aim is the same: to help you feel safer, clearer, and more connected to yourself.
You don’t need to be anywhere other than where you are. We begin from there, with a little curiosity about what might feel possible.

What people say
“You were absolutely invaluable in getting me through my pregnancy. I had pelvic girdle pain from around 16 weeks and was really beginning to struggle with the discomfort. Your expert touch definitely got me through the pregnancy without needing crutches, or becoming a lot more immobile. I still benefit from the occasional visit to you, but you worked your magic brilliantly!! Thank you…”
~ Alison, Cardiff
“Since seeing Marie just twice about low back pain and a ‘tennis elbow’…both issues are now no longer troublesome and full range of movement/strength has been restored. Marie is kind and attentive and explains everything she is doing. She has magical hands and I would recommend her to anyone with musculoskeletal problems.”
~ Milly, Marlborough
“My first appointment with Marie today since before lockdown. All the expected health and safety precautions were in place (masks, sanitiser, social distancing where possible) but nevertheless, my treatment still felt more like a wonderful beauty treatment than anything else.
Marie put me at ease the very first time I met her (years ago) and now we always have a great chat and a giggle during my treatment. I left feeling as though every bone in my body had been pampered – and the stiffness in my neck had gone!
Thanks Marie – I’m already looking forward to my next appointment.”
