I treat a broad range of musculoskeletal problems, including:
Back and lower back pain
Neck and shoulder pain
Sciatica and nerve-related symptoms
Hip and knee pain

Tendon and muscle injuries

If your pain is affecting your ability to work, exercise, walk, sleep or enjoy everyday activities, an assessment can help establish what may be contributing to the problem and what you can do about it.
Physiotherapy for busy Burnage professionals
A large part of my work involves people whose symptoms have developed alongside busy working lives.
You may spend much of your day at a desk, work from home, commute into Manchester or simply find that there isn’t enough time in the day to look after yourself properly.
Neck tension, headaches, shoulder discomfort and back pain can gradually become normalised when you spend hours in the same position.
Rather than simply telling you to “sit up straight”, I look at the wider picture — including your movement, strength, habits, workload and the activities that may be aggravating your symptoms.
You’ll receive practical recommendations that you can realistically incorporate into your day.
For Burnage runners, gym users and active people
If you’re active, being told to stop exercising completely can be particularly frustrating.
Whether you’ve developed knee pain while running, an ankle injury during sport, a tendon problem from training or back pain after increasing your gym workload, rehabilitation should help you understand how to return to activity safely.
Your programme may include:
- Progressive strengthening
- Load management
- Movement retraining
- Running or exercise modifications
- Mobility work where appropriate
- Gradual return-to-sport planning
- Strategies to reduce the likelihood of recurring problems
The goal is not simply to get you through your next session. It is to help you develop the capacity and confidence to keep doing the activities you enjoy.
What happens when you come from Burnage for physiotherapy?
- We start with your story
Your first appointment is about understanding what has brought you in.
I’ll ask about your symptoms, how they started, what makes them better or worse, your normal activities and what you would like to get back to doing.
- I’ll assess the problem
I’ll assess relevant areas such as movement, strength, mobility and function to build a clearer picture of what may be contributing to your symptoms.
- I’ll explain what I’ve found
You won’t be left wondering what is wrong or what you should do next.
I’ll explain my findings in straightforward language and answer any questions you have.
- We’ll begin your treatment plan
Where appropriate, treatment can begin during your first appointment. Depending on your needs, this may include hands-on techniques, exercises, movement work or other physiotherapy approaches.
- You’ll know what to do between appointments
I’ll give you clear guidance and exercises where appropriate, so that you can actively contribute to your recovery outside the clinic.
