I’m Nicky, founder of ‘By Nicky’ and dedicated women’s health advocate.
​​
After a professional dance career, I earned an honour's degree in Physiotherapy from the University of Bradford in 2011. I gained valuable experience across NHS specialties in my early post-graduate years, before moving to one of the UK’s largest private healthcare providers, where I have spent the last 8 years leading their remote Physiotherapy triage service and specializing in women’s pelvic health.
​
I believe in a personalized, compassionate and holistic approach to healthcare. By understanding your goals, passions, beliefs, and challenges, we can achieve lasting results together.
​
Understanding that women require support at different life stages from various sources, I am committed to educating the broader community to ensure women receive the understanding and help they need beyond our clinic. I have presented at numerous conferences and community education events for GPs, AHPs, and more.
​
Beyond my professional life, I am a wife, dance and rugby mum to 2, yoga and weight lifting enthusiast.
