About

Chris rehabilitates acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, from pre- and post-operative orthopaedic recovery to sports injuries, drawing on a background in sports science and strength and conditioning to bring a data-driven approach that helps patients track progress and shape their own recovery plan. He uses shockwave therapy, dry needling, and soft tissue techniques alongside guided exercise programmes, and has worked in the NHS, in private practice, and with high-level sportspeople.
