Therapist - Rachel Canham-Maddock MSc

​

Rachel's background is in Ballet Education. After training at the Royal Academy of Dance she ran a dance school for over a decade, during which time she developed an interest in dance injuries. She then studied for an MSc in Dance Science which presented many opportunities to further her knowledge. After experiencing a number of injuries herself, and struggling to find a therapist who understood the demands of dance, she decided to take the plunge and train as a Soft Tissue Therapist so she could help other people in her situation. She qualified with a Level 5 Diploma from Cambridge School of Sports Massage in October 2021.

​

Following the birth of her third child, and after seeing the pain and challenges endured by so many mothers coming through the clinic, she moved her attention to women's health. As of January 2026 the clinic is proud to offer specialist scar therapy services supporting women who have undergone c-section births and abdominal surgery.
