What’s in a Name…
Hawthorn serves as a connection and tribute to my dearest “Little Mumma”. It was the name of my childhood home, where she cared for and nourished us. She made osteopathic treatment a core part of our upbringing, and so it became an integral part of my own healthcare journey navigating chronic pain, and sparking a curiosity and passion for better Healthcare.
Health is a fundamental part of our human existence but being and feeling healthy is unique to each of us; we are all on our own individual paths. As a health professional I offer person centred care and a biopsychosocial approach. This means taking a wider view beyond just tissue damage, addressing the many varied factors in our lives that contribute to our pain and capacity to cope when our health is challenged. At Hawthorn Health Alliance we aim to support you in finding your health, whatever that looks like for you.
Alliance is about cooperation and working together for a common purpose. Osteopathy is an Allied Health Profession (AHP). Our role as an AHP is to develop a partnership where we act as both support and advocate for patients and their health, forming a therapeutic alliance. This may mean working together to develop a management plan through shared decision making, or helping patients to access other services through advice, resource sharing, education, and referral.
Hawthorn Health Alliance are committed to providing evidence based Osteopathic care in East Sussex at accessible prices.
