Working with Holly has been nothing short of empowering and amazing. For background, I am a male college soccer player in the United States who was dealing with hip pain for almost a year before speaking with her. I was diagnosed with hip dysplasia but was told it wasn’t a large concern and that I should just “let it rest” even though i was dealing with a lot of discomfort with my hip flexor and hamstring. I found her online through some research, and spoke to her through a zoom call.
From the beginning, she placed a large emphasis on providing me with power and the control to change my outcome, which up until that point I never had. She also did an amazing job of explaining my issue, both with anecdotes and relevant studies on the issue. She provided me with amazing education on my issue and specific exercises to improve my pain and performance to help me get back on the pitch. This fall, I was able to return to sport for the first time in a year, and I am not looking back! I still meet with her regularly for check ups to find new ways to get stronger, and I always feel like she is right there with me to guide me!
I found Holly from her Instagram, after being hopeless and scared about having to go through a PAO in both my hips. After a year- where both hips hurt every day, I found the courage to speak to her (I was afraid that living an ocean away, there was little she could do to help me). We set up an hour call and she gave me some background scientific explanation of the fundamentals around hip dysplasia and of exercises that would help and why. She provided me with an exercise programme and advised me on timelines to work on. I was told to work on it for 2 months, I was scared but did it and after that time I began to feel less pain. I continued with the workouts and progressively loading as per her guidance and the pain got less and less. I did not have to go through any surgery because of her advice and guidance.
There is not a day I am not happy and wish to give her IG to every other Dysplasia sufferers out there. Her work and knowledge, passion and service saved me and I will be forever grateful. I even managed to go through pregnancy and have my baby without issues.
Holly is a wonderful Physiotherapist, whose knowledge on Hip Dysplasia is unparalleled. She's given me the confidence and knowledge to understand my hip issues better, and the exercises she designs for me are perfect. She's also very kind and an amazing listener- I would strongly recommend her to anyone suffering with Dysplasia.
