Leanne graduated from Robert Gordon University in 2019 with a BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy. In 2018, whilst at university she carried out her elective clinical placement at SPEAR, attracted by her strong interest in sporting injuries, rehabilitation and return to sport. SPEAR were so impressed by Leanne and her work ethic that on graduation Leanne started a mentorship program at SPEAR.

Prior to Leanne’s Physiotherapy journey, she completed a football scholarship in America where she gained a degree in Exercise Science & Strength and Conditioning.  On return from the US, she worked as personal trainer. She worked with a variety of individuals with varying abilities, helping her clients reach their goals. This is where she found her love for analysing human biomechanics and fuelled her drive to help individuals move better.

While at SPEAR she has continued to further her learning, which has fuelled a special interest in running and sport specific injuries. She combines exercise prescription and her Physiotherapy skills to provide a personal approach to rehabilitation and injury prevention.

In 2020 Leanne researched and then developed her Gym:Ready service where she assesses patients coming back from injury to see what their capabilities are. She then puts together a progressive individualised programme to help her patients achieve their goals.
“I like to treat an array of musculoskeletal conditions with the aim to get you back to what you love doing!”

When not at work, Leanne continues to play football. She plays football for Buchan Ladies and has competed at a National level for Scotland at u-15, u-17 and u-19 levels.
