Hello, and welcome to my site; here is a little bit about me, my work, and what led me to create The Rose Clinic.

Over the past 20 years I’ve worked in hospices, NHS hospitals, cancer support charities and private practice, supporting people recovering from cancer treatment, surgery and life-limiting illness.

Alongside this, my own practice evolved. Beginning with a foundation in Aromatherapy and Therapeutic Massage, I expanded into Manual Lymphatic Drainage and specialist Scar Therapy and, most recently, Photobiomodulation (red light therapy).

The more time I spent with clients, the more it became clear to me that many people had received excellent surgery and cancer treatment, only to find themselves navigating the long-term effects of recovery on their own. Pain, scar tissue, restricted movement and changes in confidence don't simply disappear when hospital appointments come to an end.

The Rose Clinic grew from a simple belief: recovery deserves as much care and attention as treatment itself.

I created The Rose Clinic to fill this often-unmet need — personalised support for recovery after cancer treatment.

From my peaceful garden studio in Hastings, West Sussex, I offer my own integrated oncology aftercare treatments; a bespoke combination of all my specialist therapies, tailored to each person, their needs and their stage of recovery.

“Recovery is about so much more than time. It requires expert care, thoughtful guidance and an approach that’s as individual as the person receiving it.”

My Approach

Everyone’s recovery is different. Every person heals differently and every stage of recovery presents its own challenges. I take time to understand your symptoms, your medical history, your lifestyle and what matters most to you, and use a personalised blend of therapies that will best support your body at that point in your healing.

Recovery is cumulative. Lasting change rarely comes from a single treatment. That's why my treatments are delivered as a course of sessions called the Recovery Pathway. Each session builds on the progress of the last to create meaningful, lasting improvements over time, helping you feel more comfortable, move more freely and regain confidence in your body.

“You have been a Godsend!!! I honestly can’t thank you enough and I hope many more ladies in my position are able to relieve some of the stress of such an overwhelming experience through the aid of your therapy for many more years to come. All my love and gratitude, xxxx”
