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.
