Meet Laura Founder & Osteopath

Hi, I’m Laura an osteopath, strength coach, and the founder behind The Recovery Project. Long before I was treating patients or coaching people through strength training, I spent most of my life in the equestrian world. It taught me a deep understanding of bodies in motion. Horses don’t hide their weaknesses they show you through movement, behaviour, and patterns. That ability to “read” subtle changes transferred naturally to how I assess human movement today.

What I Love Working With

I work best with people who are ready to understand why their pain keeps coming back and are willing to do the work to change it.

  • Long-term back and hip pain

  • Running injuries & strength for runners

  • Strength training for people who feel intimidated or inexperienced

  • Women’s health through strength

  • People who’ve relied on hands-on treatment for years

  • Hip labral tears, gluteal tendinopathy, and stubborn lower-limb issues

My Approach (and What to Expect)

I’m known for being:

  • Honest and direct I will tell you what you need to hear, not what sounds good.

  • Evidence-based but practical you get clear explanations you can actually use.

  • Movement-focused you’ll move, lift, and learn every session.

  • Calm but not soft I’ll push you (kindly) because growth doesn’t happen in your comfort zone.

  • Big on education you’ll understand your pain, why it behaves the way it does, and how to manage it confidently.

You’ll love working with me if:

  • You’re tired of quick fixes

  • You’re open-minded and willing to learn

  • You want to get stronger, not just “less sore”

  • You’re ready for a long-term solution

  • You value clear, honest guidance

  • You want a practitioner who will coach, mentor, and support you not just treat you for 15 minutes and rush you out the door

If you’re ready to finally get on the front foot with your body, build resilience, and understand what your pain is really telling you, I’d love to help you get there.
