Lois also has a strong sporting background, having been a swimming national finalist, county runner, and national biathlon finalist. This personal experience of high-level competition allows her to guide athletes back to performance with clarity and realism.
She is passionate about helping clients return not just to pre-injury levels, but to improved strength, agility, and resilience.
Outside the clinic, Lois is a mother of four and enjoys outdoor adventures with her family.
