Clinically-led

With over twenty five years’ experience of successfully treating over 2 million patients and physiotherapists on our Executive Team, we know what great care looks like.

Our Clinical Training and Development Team is made up of experienced university lecturers and Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioners who shape and lead our curriculum.
