Meet the team

After suffering a significant back injury following a fall from a horse in her younger years, Louise began to experience increasingly debilitating pain as she got older. The pain was erratic and unpredictable, often leaving her feeling unheard and misunderstood. Like many people living with persistent pain, she struggled with the feeling that no one truly believed the extent of her symptoms.

Everything changed when she met fellow osteopath, Jonathan Butterworth. For the first time, Louise felt genuinely listened to, believed and supported. Through his care, she experienced not only physical relief but also the profound impact of being truly seen and understood.

It was at that moment that she found clarity in her own path. Through her experiences of pain and recovery, she realised she wanted to help others facing similar struggles—to provide the kind of compassionate, holistic care that had made such a difference in her own life.

This journey did not end with osteopathy.

In 2014, Louise met an Apache medicine man named Gianni, an encounter that would set her on an unexpected and deeply transformative path. Through her own healing, she has come to understand that pain often has roots that extend beyond the physical body. Her experiences with Gianni ignited a desire to explore the deeper emotional, energetic and spiritual dimensions of healing.

Shortly afterwards, she met her teacher, Wendy, and began her formal training as a shaman. She later continued her studies with Chris Waters of Spirit of the Inca and with Don Alejandro Apaza, founder of the Inca Medicine School, with whom she now has a close working relationship.

Today, Louise continues to immerse herself in the rich traditions of indigenous wisdom and healing. She has also felt a profound calling towards Nordic Shamanism—a path that speaks deeply to her ancestral roots and the grit, courage and resilience of her Viking lineage.

These shamanic practices have brought an additional dimension to her work, allowing her to support people through healing that extends beyond the physical body and into the emotional, energetic and spiritual aspects of wellbeing.

Louise firmly believes that healing is rarely about treating symptoms alone. It is about being heard, understood and supported as a whole person. Her own journey through pain, recovery and profound personal transformation enables her to walk alongside others with deep empathy and integrity.

More recently, another deeply personal chapter has further shaped her work. Following her own diagnosis of endometriosis, Louise once again found herself navigating the challenges of living with chronic pain, unpredictable symptoms and the emotional impact that can accompany a long and often misunderstood condition.

Drawing upon both her professional knowledge and lived experience, she has developed an even deeper understanding of what it means to feel unheard, to have your symptoms questioned, and to search for answers whilst trying to continue living life to the fullest.

This experience has ignited a growing passion to support other women facing similar journeys. Louise is increasingly dedicating her work to helping women living with endometriosis, persistent pelvic pain and complex chronic health conditions, offering a compassionate, whole-person approach that addresses not only the physical body, but also the emotional and energetic impact of long-term illness.

She believes that no one should have to walk these journeys alone. Through osteopathy, coaching and her holistic healing practices, she hopes to empower women to better understand their bodies, feel truly heard and supported, and reclaim a sense of trust, strength and possibility in their lives.

It is this lived experience that sits at the heart of her work today. Louise's own experiences of injury, chronic pain, trauma, healing and transformation allow her to meet others not only as a practitioner, but as someone who truly understands the courage it takes to heal. She is certain that without the teachings, practices and tools she has gathered along the way, she would not have navigated some of life's greatest challenges with the strength, resilience and grace she has found, and it is now her calling to walk alongside others as they find their own path back to health, wholeness and themselves.
