Alix Long,
BSc, CPAM, HCPC
Alix graduated from the School of Health and Sciences in Lausanne, Switzerland with a degree in Physiotherapy in 2015. She is bilingual, with fluency in both English and French. Since graduating, she gained extensive experience at Geneva University Hospital, Switzerland’s largest health system, where her rehabilitation focused on patients with complex neurological disorders and injuries, such as strokes, Parkinson’s disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Guillan-Barre Syndrome and back surgery. With her diverse physiotherapy expertise, Alix applies her in-depth neurological knowledge to treat both musculoskeletal injuries and post-operative patients.
She is always striving to further expand her skill set and has completed multiple rehabilitation training programs, including becoming a qualified APPI Pilates instructor. Alix leverages her physiotherapy training, neurological rehabilitation expertise and Pilates knowledge to create synergistic, individualized treatment programs for her patients. She is also a great advocate of aqua therapy, an evidence-based rehabilitation approach which many of her patients have benefited from. Alix is dedicated to her patients and is available by appointment in the clinic, for home visits and in-patient consultations.
When she is not helping her patients return to full function, Alix enjoys running and building sandcastles on the beautiful Seven Mile Beach with her daughter.
Kelly Smith,
BSc (Hons), CPAM, HPCSA
Kelly graduated from the University of the Western Cape in Cape Town, South Africa with a BSc in Physiotherapy in 2018. She then completed her community service year in 2019 in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape, working at Settlers Hospital where she managed a variety of inpatient and outpatient cases, including post-op rehabilitation, neuromuscular injuries, sports injuries, and pediatric developmental delays and disabilities.
Kelly continues to expand her knowledge and skillset by completing online and practical courses in physiotherapy, including completing her Dry Needling certification, courses in specialized shoulder pain in the sportsperson, courses in the treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ), and COVID-19 courses for healthcare professionals. Kelly also has a variety of experience in both the public and private sector in South Africa, treating complex cases in surgical, medical, ICU and COVID wards as well as in outpatient private practices.
Having played field hockey and water polo at provincial level and rhythmic gymnastics at a national level, Kelly has a deep love for everything exercise- and sports-related. Her first-hand experience with the impact that a talented physiotherapist can have on an athlete’s performance is what initially sparked her deep passion for physiotherapy. As a life-long athlete, she had numerous experiences with physiotherapists as a patient herself and uses that insight of the physical and mental challenges that sportspersons experience to provide a holistic approach to her patient care.
Kelly also has an immense love for the outdoors, whether it is hiking or a beach day, especially with friends and family. In her free time, you’ll find Kelly playing sports or enjoying the stunning beaches of Cayman.
