Liaan studied and qualified as a Physiotherapist at the University of Stellenbosch in South Africa. With 20 years of experience in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy, she also extended her scope of practice and holds diplomas in Orthopedics and Injection therapy. She gained invaluable knowledge and skills working alongside Associate Orthopedic surgeons for 7 years during her time in the NHS. In 2014, she left the NHS to start work in private practice. Brambles Physiotherapy opened its doors in 2023 in Eythorne. Liaan's vision is to serve her community, whilst raising her young family.

Liaan appreciates the freedom that pain-free movement provides and works with clients to achieve this in various ways.

In addition to physiotherapy she enjoys practicing and teaching Pilates to a wide range of clients. She advocates the benefits of preventative treatments and exercise, good habits and postures: "You do not need to be injured to want to move better. I am a strong believer that if we invest more in our wellness we can prevent a lot of our illness."
