Hi, I’m Camilla, and I just want to let you know a little bit about myself.
I qualified as a Chartered Physiotherapist in 2007, and since then I have worked extensively in the NHS. I am a Senior Physio in MSK Outpatients and alongside this I have been working for Action First Physiotherapy since November 2024.

I have extensive experience assessing and treating people with sporting injuries, fractures and soft tissue injuries such as ligament sprains and ruptures, tendon pathologies and ruptures and muscular imbalances.

I have experience in chronic pain pathologies and rheumatology conditions. I have extensive experience in rehabilitation post injury and post surgery, and in pre-habilitation for those preparing for surgery.
My repertoire includes assessment and treatment of spinal conditions and peripheral limb injuries, and pre and post surgical rehab.
I also have experience in obstetric physiotherapy and women’s pelvic health. Injuries and pathologies of the hand such as tendon ruptures, carpal tunnel and RSI’s.

I am also an experienced qualified APPI Pilates Instructor, and have been running my own classes in local communities since 2017, and a seated Pilates class at Action First in Snaith.

As part of my Pilates skills, I have completed several specialist Pilates courses focusing on specific joints such as the shoulder and the hip; sport specific courses including Pilates for Cyclists and HIIT Pilates, and more recently Pilates for the Menopause.

In my spare time I enjoy running, I organise a small running club and annual Santa run in my local village. I love cycling and being outdoors, I have a young family and a dog who loves a good game of tug of war.

I am happy to announce i will now also be working from Action First's clinic at Rock fitness in Goole, every Monday from 9th February. You can book an appointment with me here https://www.actionfirstphysio.co.uk/online-booking-form/

or by calling reception on 01405 949134.

I look forward to seeing you !!

‘Hi all!

I’m happy to say I’m back at Action first, offering Sport Massage on Tuesday mornings, after having 2 months off. My time off was partially due to University commitments, focusing on exam season and more excitingly my current placement. Since November, i have been working with Hull KR, as placement for my Degree in Sport Rehabilitation. This experience so far has been amazing, and allowed me to gain further knowledge of the career I’d love to peruse in the future! I’m grateful to say my placement will continue to the end of my academic year, allowing a few more months of hands-on experience within the medical team.’

I am working from our clinic at Fitness Gym and you can book online through the website
https://www.actionfirstphysio.co.uk/online-booking-form/

Don't forget there is currently an offer for £5 off sports massage so make sure you select the correct treatment!!

I look forward to seeing you.

Have you got pain in the soles of your feet? Especially first thing in the morning and when weight bearing for periods of time? Is it stopping you from taking part in your daily routine?
Physiotherapy can help ease the symptoms and allow healing to occur.
Booking a physiotherapy assessment as a first point of contact is a step in the right direction!
Traditional physiotherapy methods such as stretching, strengthening, hands on interventions and advice may be enough to resolve your pain.

If your problem has been lingering for more than 3 months, shockwave therapy is an alternative option, especially if first line treatments haven't worked.
Shockwave therapy helps plantar fasciitis by stimulating healing in damaged tissue, increasing blood flow, and reducing pain signals.

💥 How Shockwave Therapy Works

Stimulates tissue repair: High‑energy sound waves are directed into the heel, which encourages the plantar fascia to heal by increasing cellular activity.

Improves blood flow: The acoustic energy boosts circulation in the area, helping the body repair chronic inflammation.

Reduces pain signalling: Shockwaves disrupt nerve activity that sends pain signals, often giving relief after a 3-6 sessions.

Breaks down scar tissue: Long‑term plantar fasciitis can cause thickened, stiff tissue; shockwave helps remodel it over time.

Non‑invasive alternative to surgery: No injections, no anaesthetic, and minimal downtime.

🦶 Why It’s Used for Plantar Fasciitis

Chronic cases: lasted for 3-6 months + and hasn’t improved with stretching, orthotics, or rest.

Targets the root cause: Instead of masking pain, it encourages the fascia to heal at the tissue level.

Quick sessions: Usually 3–4 sessions, about 20–30 minutes each.

⚠️ Things to Keep in Mind
Not instant relief: Improvement often builds over weeks as tissue heals.

Mild soreness is common: Some people feel temporary discomfort after treatment.

Success rates are encouraging: Many patients report reduced pain and better function, especially in chronic cases.

2026 is the year of the horse! 🐴

Are you feeling motivated to get fitter in the saddle for the upcoming season?

Physiotherapy for horse riders focuses on improving balance, symmetry, core strength, and pain‑free movement so you can ride more effectively and keep your horse comfortable. Recent guidance stresses that rider imbalances directly affect a horse’s performance and welfare. It is important to improve you and your horses performance for the upcoming competition season.

Why Physiotherapy Matters for Riders:

✅ Improved posture and balance — Riding demands stable alignment; physio strengthens core and hip control to prevent collapsing to one side.

✅ Better communication with the horse — A balanced rider uses subtle aids instead of relying on reins for stability, reducing stress on the horse.

✅ Injury prevention — Addresses stiffness, weakness, and asymmetry that can lead to pain in the back, hips, knees, or shoulders.

✅ Enhanced performance — Helps riders sit the trot, improve transitions, and ride evenly on both reins.

Common Issues Physiotherapy Helps Riders Solve:

✅ Problems on one rein

✅ Difficulty sitting to the trot

✅ Gripping with thighs or collapsing to one side

✅ Back or hip pain during/after riding

✅ Reduced mobility or stiffness

✅Post‑surgical or injury rehabilitation

What a Rider Physio Session Typically Includes:

✅ Full postural and movement assessment

✅ Core and pelvic stability training — Essential for independent seat and soft hands.

✅ Strength and conditioning — Targeting glutes, adductors, deep core, and spinal stabilisers.

✅ Mobility and flexibility work — Especially hips, thoracic spine, and ankles.
