Sports Physio at Edinburgh Sports + Spinal Physiotherapy

Sports injuries or long term niggles are frustrating. We provide a high level of expertise for the diagnosis and treatment of complex sports injuries as well as post surgical rehab. Helping people of all ages and abilities from a range of sports.

Our vision is to restore our patients from injury or pain and then help them thrive in their lives, activities or sport.

We relieve pain, reduce injury risk and inspire better athletic performance.

What can you expect?

An athlete focused physio approach.
Accurate impression of your issue/condition/injury.
Treatment of the underlying problem and importantly not just alleviation of the symptoms.
Refined, even more targeted, treatment as the condition improves.
A plan that takes into account what you are trying to do/achieve (treating the whole athlete, not just the injury/complaint).
Trusted, respectful, knowledgeable and effective physiotherapists.

Unlike other clinics in Edinburgh we believe a combination of assessment, diagnosis, patient education, manual therapy and individualised exercise programs are the most effective way to achieve positive and sustainable results.

What is Sports Physiotherapy?

Sports Physiotherapy is the specialised branch of physiotherapy which deals with injuries and issues related to sports people. Sports physiotherapists help athletes of all ages using exercise, movement and manual based therapeutic interventions to treat the neuromusculoskeletal system.

Edinburgh Sports + Spinal Physiotherapy understand the importance of evidence based practice, and use findings from clinical research to support their assessment and treatment choices for sports injuries.
