Physio & Health Matters is a privately owned physiotherapy practice that has built its reputation on the quality of care that it provides.
We pride ourselves on highly qualified, experienced practitioners and bespoke facilities offering expert treatment for an extensive range of problems. We believe in treating the individual as a whole, determining the root cause to provide the correct course of treatment using a collaborative approach to restore fitness and promote an active lifestyle.
We boast an excellent client recovery record and work very closely with local consultants, GP’s and other medical service providers. We have a fully equipped gym with private treatment rooms.
OUR AIM: RESTORING YOUR HEALTH
We aim to help restore our clients health and wellbeing minimising disruption to their normal lifestyle. We are unique in the services we provide and the manner in which they are delivered, believing in the therapeutic impact of the hands on approach. Continuous Professional Development We ensure that all our practitioners actively participate in continuing professional development to enhance their repertoire of clinical skills and knowledge and permit their registration with regulatory bodies (HPC).
In doing so, our therapists develop throughout their careers to ensure that they retain their capacity to practice safely, effectively and legally within their evolving scope of practice. Regular participation in CPD activities both externally and internally allows us to continue to learn and develop as healthcare professionals; this is fundamental to maintain high levels of competence and proficiency to treat a variety of conditions and to enable us to identify our learning needs and hence, expand our scope of practice.

Physio & Health Matters was set up by me...
Physio & Health Matters was set up by me in May 2000 at a time of change in my life. Over the years it has developed into a thriving practice, where the key objective of providing a quality professional service to our local community has been the primary focus. Clinically I have a keen interest in the sacro iliac joint and the spine in general. I feel the sacro iliac area has been a poorly understood area historically and to help with the understanding of this part of the anatomy I am in the process of writing a course for my fellow colleagues to simplify it, and remove the fears around it. Since July of 2012 with the aid of a loyal and hard working team I have set up a satellite clinic in Bannerbrook Pharmacy in Bannerbrook, Coventry. At the moment I am in the process of setting up another satellite clinic in Stratford Upon Avon at the Circle Clinic which will open to clients very soon; just watch this space. My ambition is to open 6 clinics in total which will all provide a very high standard of care to all our clients. My personal goal is to get better at my Asthanga Yoga and get to the gym at least 4 times a week and join the local tennis club to improve my game.

Hi, I’m Amie. I graduated from the University of Birmingham in July 2009 where I was awarded a BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy and have worked at Physio and Health Matters since I qualified. In that time I have grown both personally and professionally. I have a particular interest in neuromusculoskeletal physiotherapy and enjoying treating all manner of problems from the spine to the knee! I have recently completed a course in acupuncture which now allows me to practice the discipline and has qualified me to register with the Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists (AACP). As the practice continues to grow I am looking forward to the exciting opportunities ahead! In my spare time I enjoy socialising with friends, watersports and spectating at live motorsport events to help me relax and unwind! I achieved my black belt in Taekwondo some years ago but unfortunately stopped training when I was studying; I hope that I may return to it in the not so distant future.

Junior Physiotherapist
Clinical interests: Musculoskeletal
I have achieved numerous qualifications in exercise and kinesiotherapy...
Hi, I’m George!
I graduated from Coventry University in October 2017 as a qualified Physiotherapist. During my free time I enjoy reading, working out, going out with friends and travelling to new places to explore different cultures and meet new people. My interest in the human body and brain started in 2010, when I began my training to become a Physiotherapy Assistant.
Since then my passion for the subject has driven me to become better and better each day, hence why I have achieved numerous qualifications in exercise and kinesiotherapy in order to help me better understand how the body moves and heals, as well as how an individual can achieve his or her optimum performance.
Before joining the wonderful team at Physio and Health Matters I worked as a Care Assistant and a Senior Personal Trainer. This allowed me to work with, and support various individuals ranging from those with complex needs to common musculoskeletal problems. I’m really happy to have now joined the well-established and experienced team at Physio and Health Matters and look forward to what the future holds.
