Meet Yolande, Chiro at Belrose

Hi I'm Yolande! I'm a Chiropractor

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO PEOPLE’S LIVES?

Making a difference to people's lives to me, means having a positive impact, improving people's outcomes and their daily function.

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO GET INTO CHIROPRACTIC?

My passion for Physiotherapy was sparked in my younger years whilst taking part in multiple sports and inevitably picking up multiple injuries along the way. I have first hand experience of how pain and these set backs can impact people, this lit my desire to help people through those tough times.

WHAT TYPES OF PATIENTS DO YOU ENJOY WORKING WITH THE MOST AND WHY?

I enjoy working with a variety of patients, including CrossFitters, weekend warriors, athletes, young guns, and post-op clients. What I love most is helping people work towards their goals—no matter what those goals may be or the level we’re aiming for. The most important thing is trusting the process and working together to achieve great results.

SHOUTOUT TO ONE PERSON WHO HAS INSPIRED YOU AND WHY.

Jessica Ennis, British Heptathlete, the dedication and discipline it takes to be world class in any sport is very commendable. However, being able to perform and succeed in multiple disciplines within the Heptathlon is a different level of motivation and determination which I admire.

WHAT IS THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE YOU'VE EVER RECEIVED?

Never give up, because you deserve to see what happens when your hard work pays off.

What is the one thing you have achieved that, if you could time travel, you would want to tell your 10-year-old self?

Moving across the other side of the world to continue my Physiotherapy career.

IF THEY MADE A MOVIE ABOUT YOU, WHO WOULD YOU WANT TO PLAY YOU?

This is tricky, it would be between Scarlett Johansson and Emily Blunt.
