The Hollinton Health Team

Meet our MSK Clinicians:

Samantha Holland BSc (Hons) MSTO CSPs

Your Senior MSK Specalist & Clinical Director 

My passion to help others combined with exreme drive and enthusiasm has enabled me to become the proficient practioner I am today. I thrive off complexity and handling multiple high pressure tasks; my motivation is drawn from the accumilation of sucess stories from patients under my care, ranging from living comfortably day-to-day to achieving world champion statuses. I have great satisfaction and have pride in everything I do, which is projected into my work and the care I take with each individual I treat. I couldnt be happier in my career, and it shows.
In 2008 I gained BSc Sports Therapy and am near the end of MSc Physiotherapy, allowing me the diversity needed to tackle and treat most physiological conditions.

I take a personal approach to caring for my patients, building trust by sharing my experiences and understanding their unique needs. I customise my treatment and rehabilitation methods to fit each person's lifestyle and goals. My genuine care and dedication often lead to lifelong friendships, making my work incredibly fulfilling. 

Personal Interests:
When I'm not working, I love music. I enjoy producing my own tracks and have even released some of them! I also perform live with my bands, ARC and AlphaFuse. I find them to be a great creative outlet and stress reliever. There's nothing quite like the satisfaction and sense of achievement I get from singing while performing on stage!


Community Involvement:

I founded the Baldock 5k 'Rat Run' to support the Garden House Hospice, raising over £10,000 to date. This annual event brings the community together with a run, BBQ, children's amusements, and a raffle.


Continuing Education and Professional Development:

I am currently completing my master's degree (MSc Physiotherapy) and stay updated with the latest research and developments in the field. I attend workshops and conferences and collaborate with sports therapy and physiotherapy leaders to continually enhance my skills and knowledge.



"I went to see Sam after a surfing mishap left me with a high-grade MCL sprain. Being a sportswoman and a karate coach, being out of action was damaging not only to me but also to my students. Sam gave me fantastic advice and got me back on my feet super fast! After six weeks of treatment, I had a second MRI scan, and the specialist was stunned at the recovery! Sam has been incredibly helpful, supportive and always on the end of the phone whenever I have a concern, or I’ve done something else! I would highly recommend them to anyone for any treatment; you couldn’t get better care! Thanks, Sam"

Miranda P - Stevenage

"Big Thank you to Sam at Sports Therapy 4U. My father was recovering from a serious illness, and despite Intensive therapy while in hospital, he still struggled with his balance. Within my father's first session with Sam, she discovered the issues and started to build a plan to get him mobile again. My father is now fully mobile and still making progress daily. Thank you, Sam. We could not have done this without your help."

Xhenanni BSc (Hons) PgDip

Your Expert MSK Clinician

I am a fully qualified MSK Clinician with BSc in Sports Therapy and PgDip in Health and Social Care. My journey into this industry was inspired by a personal injury I sustained as a teenager. The exceptional care and support I received ignited my passion to help others overcome their injuries and achieve the best possible care. With 5 years of experience, I specialise in the assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions. My expertise includes dry needling, laser therapy, kinesiology taping, and cupping.

Therapeutic Approach:

I believe in a hands-on approach to therapy, combining techniques such as stretching, soft tissue mobilisation, and joint manipulation. My focus is on reducing tension, improving mobility, and optimising tissue recovery. Every treatment is personalised to address your specific needs and promote overall well-being. I centre on patient education and personalised care. I aim to ensure you understand your condition and the steps involved in your recovery. This empowers you to take an active role in your healing process.

Client Success Stories:

One of my clients, suffering from severe plantar fasciitis, experienced significant improvement within a few sessions. By using a variety of treatment modalities, I helped them become pain-free and restore full functionality. They were delighted with the results and have remained symptom-free since. This is just one of many, many patients I have helped over the years!

Personal Interests:

When I'm not working, I enjoy dining out, indulging in bottomless brunches, and occasionally napping. I also stay current in my field by reading new research papers. My most recent professional development includes obtaining a postgraduate diploma in health and social care.

Continuing Education and Professional Development:

I stay updated in my field by continuously engaging with the latest research and attending relevant workshops. My commitment to ongoing education ensures that I provide the most effective and up-to-date treatments for my clients.


Despite my height of 4'10", I bring surprising strength and effectiveness to my sports massage sessions. My ability to simplify complex medical and MSK jargon ensures that clients fully understand their treatment plans, enhancing the overall therapeutic experience.

I have BA Hons in Politics & Economics, a Diploma in Nutritional Therapy combined with 500hr Yoga Teacher Training.

Professional Experience:
With 3 years of practice, I specialise in women's health, gut health, and chronic fatigue. My expertise includes food intolerance testing, hormonal function testing, and breathwork assessments.

Therapeutic Approach:
No two people are the same. I use a personalised and holistic approach to health and wellbeing, empowering you to discover how food is medicine. By making small changes to your diet, lifestyle, and mindset, we can transform your life. I focus on finding and supporting the root causes of health issues to end the chronic cycle of unwanted symptoms effectively.

Professional Philosophy:
I follow an evidence-based naturopathic model, combining biochemistry and nutrition with natural therapies and lifestyle changes to help you maintain optimal health.

Client Success Stories:
A 41-year-old female client suffered from recurrent foot infections for three years despite multiple treatments. Within eight weeks of working together, her feet healed completely, and she has not had any infections since. She gained more energy, lost weight, and enjoyed her first pedicure—something she never thought possible. By simplifying my recommendations and addressing her whole health, we found and treated the root cause.

Personal Motivation:
My passion for food and personal health struggles, including digestive issues and recurring infections, led me to pursue nutritional therapy. My journey of healing began when I met a naturopath in Canada, and I experienced firsthand the transformative power of food and lifestyle changes.

Supplements are only suggested when necessary and for a short period to address specific imbalances and deficiencies.

Let's work together to unlock your health potential and achieve lasting well-being.
