Ms Lisa Opie

Lisa began her career as a professional squash player, competing internationally for more than a decade. In 1991 she became the first British woman in 30 years to win the British Open squash tournament, and she represented England for over 12 years. In recognition of her contribution to the sport, she was awarded an MBE in 1995.

After retiring from professional squash, Lisa completed qualifications in sports massage and went on to study at St Mary’s University in Twickenham, where she gained a degree in Sport Injury Rehabilitation and Sport Science. She has since worked for 15 years as a sports massage therapist and personal trainer in Nottingham and London, treating a wide range of individuals including professional tennis and squash players, triathletes, marathon runners, wheelchair tennis players, recreational athletes and people who are not active in sport.

Lisa continued her clinical training at the British School of Osteopathy, where she completed a master’s degree in osteopathy over five years. Her background in elite sport, combined with extensive one-to-one clinical experience and osteopathic training, enables her to work with patients of all ages and activity levels. She treats a broad spectrum of presentations including sports-related injuries, age-related concerns, work-related postural issues and functional complaints such as digestive problems.
