ABOUT US
A bit about me, I qualified in 2008 from Teesside University with a 2:1 in Physiotherapy. I commenced my career in a private practice in Australia, it was there I developed a real interest in sports and work based injuries. I trained in Western Acupuncture and Dry Needling, which is very effective in treating those hard to reach spots of pain/tension that have not been resolved through other modalities.
I am also trained in sports massage and use a array of massage techniques like trigger point and myofascial release, muscle energy techniques and deep tissue massage. I am certfied in Pilates (DMA and APPI) and use exercise rehabilitation to retrain patients after injury or illness. I’m a very hands on practitioner and use a variety of mobilisations, such as Maitland, Mulligans and some osteopathic techniques.
During my career I have worked in a variety of settings, such as hospitals, GP practices and private practices. Over the years I have developed a special interest in other areas such as Parkinsons and became a qualified PD Warrior Instructor; these are exercises and behaviors designed to challenge neuromuscular system and therefore increase neuroplasticity (changes to the body and brain). This is especially beneficial for people just diagnosed with Parkinson’s. I also work with patients with hypermobility spectrum disorders, including, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS). Through working with these patients I became very interested in, and began to specialise in Postural Tachycardia Orthostatic syndrome (PoTS).
I work very closely with Dr Sanjay Guptar who is a Consultant cardiologist and Heart Specialist at York teaching Hospital to treat patients, using my broad knowledge and experience in an holistic, bespoke way.

ABOUT US
My name is Matt, and I’m a graduate Sports Therapist, graduating from York St John University with a degree in Sports Science and Injury Rehabilitation in 2018. I’ve been in the local rehabilitation industry for nearly 5 years. In that time, I have worked for a number of local rugby teams, from grassroots to being included in the county setup and I currently work pitch-side for the York RI Women’s team. I have also worked high volume events including the London Marathon in 2019 and 2023.
Outside of work I am passionate about rugby union. I currently undertake both playing and coaching roles at my local club. I am also a keen home cook.
In my time playing I have collected quite a list of injuries putting me in an ideal position to empathise with the issues of my client base. I’m incredibly keen to get people moving in a healthy and sustainable manner. I will be offering deep tissue and rehabilitation work including stretching (static, dynamic, and PNF), soft tissue release, and rehabilitation programming. I am also comfortable static strapping and K-taping for any bigger events you might have.
