Brid Walsh ( Chartered Physiotherapist and Hippotherapist )

Brid Walsh Founder of Alba Physiotherapy.

Brid qualified in 2004) with a BSC Honours Degree in Sports and Exercise Science from the University of Limerick, Ireland. In evaluating her future path, she spent a summer in Alaska with the Hope Foundation supporting disabilities of various sorts. Her further work experience in the Rehabilitation Centre in Dun Laoghaire, Dublin convinced her that Physiotherapy was the direction she wished to specialise in. In 2007 she subsequently qualified from the Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen with an MSC in Physiotherapy.

Since 2007 she has worked in Aberdeenshire, Edinburgh in a mix of private practice clinics and the NHS Highland. She has also enjoyed working with various Scottish Sports Teams, Scottish Surf Lifesaving Team, Gaelic Football, Scottish Women’s Academy Rugby Teams and Scottish Men’s University Rugby both at home and abroad.

After a holiday in the Highlands, she felt ‘at home’ with its people and culture feeling a close connection with her Irish roots. She relocated and founded Alba Physiotherapy in 2013, the first and only Chartered Human Physiotherapy and Veterinary Physiotherapy Clinic in the Highlands. She has postgraduate studies in Hippotherapy and Pilates and continues to keep pace with research, training and development.

When not in the Clinic Brid enjoys biking or hillwalking and returning when possible to her family in Ireland.

FUN FACT! – Brid has recently learnt how to ride a dirt bike motorbike “and now I’m hooked”.

Tabitha

Tabitha is the friendly face behind Alba Physiotherapy and helps keep the clinic running smoothly day to day. From welcoming clients and managing appointments to supporting the team and helping with marketing, she plays a huge part in creating the warm and positive atmosphere that Alba is known for — and making sure the clinic never runs out of coffee or tennis balls!

Originally from Manchester, Tabitha moved to the Highlands when she was young and spent much of her childhood living in the countryside before eventually settling in Inverness — the perfect balance between city life and the outdoors.

A self-confessed people person, Tabitha loves a chat and built her career in sales and customer service, gaining experience in management, marketing, social media, and client care along the way. Her love of learning and helping people is at the heart of everything she does.

“My favourite thing about working at Alba is the people — both the staff and the patients. There’s always a story to be had, and I love helping create a positive experience for everyone who visits the clinic.”

Outside of work, Tabitha enjoys cooking, football, country rock music, and hill walking — although she admits she complains all the way up and says “weeeeee!” all the way back down! She also loves spending time with her three grown-up children and her grandson.

Fun Fact: Tabitha once had a children’s story written by her father illustrated and published, selling over 500 copies in support of Bowel Cancer UK.
