About our Team

Kate Markland

Clinic Director and Specialist Physiotherapist, BSc (Hons) PG Dip MDT SRP MCSP

Kate graduated from Kings College London where she received training at St Thomas's and Kings College Hospitals, London. Since qualifying Kate has completed The McKenzie Institute International's Diploma, which identifies the highest level of clinical excellence in Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy. Although this method enjoys an excellent reputation internationally and scientifically, Kate is one of very few clinicians in the UK to hold this qualification.

Kate enjoys the personal challenge of competitive sport. She rowed at a National level and was selected for Great Britain Team Trials in 1999. She is now a keen runner and has completed the 2003, 2006 and 2007 Flora London Marathons.
