MEET THE DISTINCT WELLNESS TEAMline1line2

The team at Distinct is well-connected to Consultants, Sports Physicians and Personal Trainers locally and London-based. The beauty of this is that if we get to the end of the road with your treatment or recognise that you need to see a specialist or have longer-term fitness goals, we will be able to confidently recommend you to the right person and place for ongoing care. This is a unique feature because it means that we have the capacity to join you on your recovery journey.

Leanne is always looking out for new therapists who might want to join her at Distinct Wellness.  She is keen to work with life coaches, nutritional therapists, yoga and pilates instructors and sports massage therapists. If you would like to be a part of the team please contact us now.

Kenny Butler

Associate Physiotherapist | Healthy Ageing Specialist 

With over 30 years of physiotherapy experience across Canada, the USA and the UK, Kenny Butler has dedicated much of his career to helping older adults remain strong, independent and active.

Kenny specialises in healthy ageing, strength and balance training, falls prevention, mobility rehabilitation and helping people recover from illness, injury or surgery. He works closely with individuals who want to stay independent at home, keep up with grandchildren, continue participating in hobbies and maintain an active lifestyle. 

Known for his warm, encouraging and practical approach, Kenny combines expert physiotherapy with personalised exercise programmes to build strength and confidence. His philosophy is simple: “Muscle is your retirement plan.” Just as we prepare financially for later life, he believes we should invest in the strength, balance and resilience that help us live well for longer. 

Alongside his clinical work, Kenny has been involved in national healthy ageing and physical activity initiatives, helping shape programmes that encourage people to stay active and healthy throughout later life. His passion is empowering people to move better, age well and continue doing the things that matter most to them.
