We are excited to announce that we have the amazing joining the highfivefitness team, welcome Katie ❤️
Hi everyone, I’m proud to introduce KCS Physiotherapy & Wellbeing at Highfivefitness. I’m a HCPC-registered Physiotherapist and a member of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy. I began my physiotherapy journey three years ago at the University of Sunderland, where I gained valuable experience across all core areas of physiotherapy, including neurology, cardiorespiratory, and musculoskeletal rehabilitation. I’m passionate about every aspect of physiotherapy and excited to continue developing as a professional through my own private practice.
My passion for physiotherapy stems from my lifelong love of sport. I’ve been playing football since I was eight years old and have spent the last five years playing women’s football for Heddon United. I’ve also been training at Highfivefitness for the past five years, and I love being part of such a supportive community. It’s an exciting opportunity to now be joining Clare and Cal’s team and offering physiotherapy services at the gym.
More recently, I’ve taken up running and am currently training for my second Great North Run. My first experience of the event was inspired by my physio placement with Marie Curie, where I saw first-hand the incredible impact the charity has on patients and their families. It motivated me to take on the challenge while supporting such an important cause.
Alongside my physio training, I’ve worked with Ryton and Crawcrook Albion for the past two years as a Sports Massage Therapist and First Aider. During university, I also completed qualifications in sports massage and sports taping, giving me additional skills to help people recover from injury, manage pain, and optimise performance.
My goal is to support clients rehabilitation journey and to keep people doing what they love. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing a long-term condition, or simply looking to stay active the goal is to provide holistic care and to help you achieve your goals. I’m looking forward to meeting you all and becoming part of your health and wellbeing journey 🖐
