About Tanya
DSC_6685.jpg

 I'm Tanya Croall

I qualified as a physiotherapist in 2001 and started Copford Physiotherapy in 2013 after leaving the Army. 5 years later I launched PhysioNatal® to serve women and their specific health needs.

 

While I am proud of being a physiotherapist, I realised that to fully be effective I had to consider more than bones, muscles and joints. This led me to study other therapies: to enhance my touch and hands-on skills through Visceral Manipulation, Myofascial Release and Craniosacral Therapy. To be able to work with the connection of mind, body and trauma through Somatic Experiencing. And to recognise how the interplay of past experiences, physiology, beliefs and emotions are expressed in dysfunctional movement patterns.

​

I believe that healing is possible and no one has to live in pain. 

​

How I can help

If you are experiencing pain or symptoms, anywhere in the body, which aren't medically explained or haven't got better by treatment so far.

If you want someone who will spend time to understand and address the root cause of the problem

If you want expert hands-on treatment with someone who is able to put their hands on the right spot.

If you want an integrative therapist who understands the mind/body connection

If you are seeking trauma-informed care

If you have had a traumatic birth experience

If you are pregnant or had a baby and feel that you have not adjusted mentally, physically or emotionally to motherhood or recovered from the birth no matter how long ago it was. 

​

Book a free consultation

I understand, you may not be sure if I am the right therapist for you. Perhaps you've seen other therapists and had previous treatment which hasn't helped. Perhaps you aren't sure whether I am able to help your condition. Perhaps you would like more information about what the treatment will involve and how many sessions you would need. Perhaps you have other questions. If so, a free, no obligation, video or telephone consultation is available.

The Copford Physio and PhysioNatal clinic

What to expect during your visit

A comprehensive assessment is important. I will carefully listen to the story of what brings you to see me. I will look at your movement and use my hands to feel where the body is restricted.

​

I generally work through clothing but may ask you to remove items if you are comfortable doing so. Loose clothing and layers are best.

​

Some treatment is usually given during the initial assessment, however most conditions will require follow-up appointments; how many will be discussed after the assessment.

​

I will often give you ‘homework’ exercises to do to continue benefiting from the treatment received in the Clinic.
