Holistic physiotherapy and acupuncture for wellbeing.
Wisdom to rise, shine, enlighten, align.
Hi, I’m Kimberley Rennoldson – welcome to Ragnar Therapies.
Inspired by the Old Norse meaning of ‘Ragnar’, associated with wisdom and healing, I bring over 25 years of clinical physiotherapy experience with advanced acupuncture and holistic movement. This includes extensive NHS work and private and charity sector roles both nationally and internationally, delivering a calm, evidence-based approach to restoring health, balance and wellbeing.
Whether you’re recovering from an acute injury, managing a condition or chronic long-term pain, or seeking natural rejuvenation through aesthetic acupuncture, every treatment is tailored to your body and goals.
Grounded in clinical expertise and guided by mindful practice, I help you move, heal and feel more at ease in yourself.
Core Holistic Therapies
-
Physiotherapy
Comprehensive assessment and treatment for conditions, pain, injury and movement issues. Combining hands-on, multi-modality therapy with guided clinical rehabilitation exercises and recovery planning to restore strength, mobility and confidence.

Acupuncture in physiotherapy
Evidence-based needling to relieve pain, ease muscle tension and support healing. Integrating traditional TCM methods with modern clinical expertise to improve recovery and overall wellbeing with targeted, effective care.

Aesthetic acupuncture
A natural, non-invasive approach to improving skin tone, texture and vitality. Encourages circulation, holistic wellbeing, relaxation and cellular renewal to promote a brighter, refreshed and naturally rejuvenated appearance from within, supporting long-lasting skin health.

Specialist acupuncture supporting pelvic pain, hormonal imbalance, women’s health conditions, and perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms. Helping women through every stage with gentle, restorative treatments for body and mind.
My philosophy.
Guided by more than two decades of physiotherapy experience, I believe true recovery comes from understanding the whole person – body, mind and environment. My practice blends evidence-based physiotherapy with acupuncture, mindful movement and restorative care, helping clients reconnect with their strength and balance. Every session is collaborative, considered and tailored to the individual.
From my clinic at Croft House in Swalwell, I work with clients from across the North East who are seeking a thoughtful, evidence-based approach to their wellbeing. I regularly welcome people from nearby communities such as Whickham, Dunston, Sunniside, Blaydon, Rowlands Gill and Low Fell, as well as from wider areas of Gateshead and Newcastle, including Jesmond and Gosforth.
