| Jane Hyde |
| MCSP Member of HPC, AACP, SOM, Physio First, ACPAT, VN |
I qualified from Bristol Physiotherapy School, in 1990, after which I worked for the NHS, gaining valuable experience in many of the different Physiotherapy disciplines before specialising in the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries, in particular, neck and back pain, soft tissue, sports injuries and foot biomechanics. I have developed a busy private Physiotherapy Clinic over the past 21 years, which for the past twelve years has been based in Lamerton, near Tavistock, and now includes Lamerton and Tavistock Physiotherapy Clinics. Along side my human Physiotherapy interests I am a founding member of the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Animal Therapy and regularly treat horses and dogs for back and related problems.
Post graduate studies have included a Diploma in Cyriax Orthopaedic Medicine, all levels of the McKenzie Back Care Institute, Muscle Energy Technique Seminars and a keen interest in the use of Pilates Exercise Therapy. I am a member of the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists.
When not working at the clinic, I lead a busy life as a mother of two children who attend Tavistock College. I also assist my husband in the running of his equine veterinary clinic, and whenever possible, persue my life long passion of horse riding. We love the outdoors, frequently spending time walking, cycling, canoeing or at the coast. |

I have over 18 years of physio experience, having worked in Australia, the USA, Nepal, and the UK. Since completing my training in Brisbane, Australia, I have gained a wealth of experience in a range of physical therapies, including all aspects of musculoskeletal manual therapy, acupuncture, Core stability and Pilates type exercise therapy.
I have a special interest in working in partnership with overweight & obese clients, enabling them to overcome their barriers to being more active. I am currently part of the Plymouth NHS Weight Management Team.
My most challenging job is as a Mother of two energetic youngsters. I am a great outdoor enthusiast, & one of my greatest experiences has been trekking to Everest Base Camp. My husband frequently takes part in Mountain marathons & adventure races, and as back up crew to these events I often finds myself Physio for any sporting injuries. I recently did the OMM (Original Mountain Marathon) with my husband, a 2 day event and was thrilled with our placing of 77th out of 176 teams.

| MCSP Member of HPC |
Since qualifying from the University of Hertfordshire in 2006 and becoming a Chartered Physiotherapist, I have gained a huge amount of experience working within private practice, treating a wide range of musculoskeletal and neurological problems, as well as through working within the sporting arena. I have also worked in the corporate sector in central London giving advice to employees regarding ergonomics and posture, completed Desk, Screen, Surface and Environment Assessments and taught lunch time Pilates classes.
I gained my Pilates qualifications with the APPI and have previously taught Pilates classes….up to 12 classes per week. The two per week now is much more manageable! In addition to Pilates, I am also qualified in the use of acupuncture for pain relief and musculoskeletal disorders, and I am a member of the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists.
I have a special interest in the treatment, management and prevention of sports injuries and for five years I spent my Tuesday and Thursday evenings, as well as Saturdays working with rugby players; initially a local amateur team and then in a semi-professional environment at Launceston. As well as rugby, I have worked at the London marathon, the Hertfordshire youth games and the Bedford half marathon.
Since moving to Cornwall in 2008 I have achieved a good work life balance, combining 3 part time jobs with my horse called ‘Mouse’ and my mad Springer ‘Bexie’. My greatest achievement so far has to be completing the London marathon in 2006. Although not in record breaking time, I did raise £3,000 for charity. |

Member of AACP, SOM, McKenzie Institute, ACPOHE
I qualified from The London Hospital in 1981, since then I have specialised in musculoskeletal injuries with particular interest in necks, backs and shoulders. I have been fortunate to move round the country working for the NHS and privately. I had my own private clinics in the North East for 8 years but on moving to Nottingham in 1999 until 2010 gained an interest in occupational physiotherapy and ergonomics.
I worked with Toyota as a specialist physiotherapist before becoming physiotherapy manager with a large occupational health company. During this time I studied for a Post Grad Cert in workplace Ergonomics at Nottingham University and I am now on the national executive of the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Occupational Health and Ergonomics. I enjoy the opportunity of looking at the workplace to ensure that it allows healthy working. This is an area I look forward to developing with Tavistock Physiotherapy Clinic and Lamerton Physiotherapy Clinic.
We had the opportunity to move to Launceston in August 2010 which has allowed us to pursue our love of the outdoors, especially the coast |

| After numerous falls from racehorses, I decided that it might be sensible to train as a Physiotherapist! I have since worked in both the NHS and the Private sector, with neurological and orthopaedic patients before undertaking a research fellowship (PhD) and lecturing position at Plymouth University, specialising in Physiotherapy for Multiple Sclerosis. I also love to teach Yoga and Pilates. Outside work, life is busy with a combination of horses, rock climbing and spaniels! |
