About Carla

About I am a Clinical Scientist and respiratory specialist with over two decades of experience working in both hospital and community settings. My work has focused on lung function testing, breathing pattern disorders, and helping people understand and improve their respiratory health.

Alongside my clinical background, I have trained as an Oxygen Advantage Advanced Instructor, combining evidence-based science with practical breathing techniques to support clients with a wide range of goals. These include improving everyday health and wellbeing, managing dysfunctional breathing, and enhancing sports performance.

I regularly work with people living with breathlessness, fatigue, or anxiety linked to breathing, as well as athletes looking to optimise performance and recovery. My approach is person-centred, supportive, and practical therefore giving clients tools they can use immediately to feel and perform better.

Whether you are looking to overcome breathing difficulties, build resilience, or push your physical limits, I can help guide you with tailored techniques rooted in both clinical knowledge and the Oxygen Advantage method.
