About Simon
Whether you’re looking to get back to running, build strength after an injury or feel more comfortable in everyday life, physiotherapist Simon can help you take the next step towards moving with confidence.
Simon supports active adults with a wide range of musculoskeletal problems, with particular expertise in back, neck, shoulder, hip and knee pain. He also works with persistent pain that hasn’t responded to previous treatment, helping you better understand what’s happening, what to expect and how to move forward.
You’ll have a clear plan and understand the steps towards recovery. Simon takes the time to explain your diagnosis, expected prognosis and treatment options, so you know what you’re working towards and why. His approach combines hands-on manual therapy, tailored exercise rehabilitation and, where appropriate, shockwave therapy to support your recovery and longer-term results.
As a multiple marathon runner, Simon understands the demands running places on the body and has a particular interest in running-related injuries, including stress fractures and tendon problems. He also has experience supporting people through complex ACL and meniscal injuries, including both surgical and non-surgical rehabilitation.
