I am a UK qualified Physiotherapist (1997) now residing in Auckland, New Zealand. In December 2011 I completed a PGDip in Health Science (Rehabilitation) which has opened-up a whole new way of looking at my profession, myself and how those two combine in my projected life map. Having come to my post-grad studies well and truly ensconsed in 'scientific method' I feel like a whole new world of exploration lies ahead.  To this end I am in the process of applying to undertake an MPhil, through Auckland University of Technology, and hopefully later take this on to a PhD.  My area of interest lies around the musculoskeltal physiotherapy practice that I have been involved heavily with since 2000, and in particular in what limits our scope of practice. I intend to use a Foucaudian discourse analysis to explore this in the first instance.
