Our therapists

Hinatsu

As a qualified Sport Rehabilitator, my goal is to help people move more freely, feel better in their bodies, and get back to doing what they love. I provide manual therapy and sports massage, often combining both for the best results. I’ve supported clients with sciatic pain, shoulder and neck tension, lower back issues, and a wide range of sports injuries in a football team.

What I specialise in
•    Recovering from sports-specific injuries
•    Managing chronic joint and muscle pain
•    Building strength and conditioning
•    Improving mobility and flexibility
•    Running biomechanics and injury prevention
•    Supporting overall lifestyle and wellbeing

Stephen

I have over five years’ experience working with both athletes and the general public, helping with rehabilitation, reducing harmful habits, and improving exercise tolerance through tailored programmes. Alongside my studies, I manage my own sports therapy business, Movement and Maintenance, where I work closely with people to achieve their individual therapy goals and support long-term lifestyle changes. I am very driven, hardworking, and friendly, and I take pride in providing the best possible care for everyone I work with. I am now in the final stages of completing my Master’s degree in Physiotherapy at the University of Liverpool, where I have gained clinical experience across musculoskeletal, neurological, and respiratory physiotherapy. 

Your first appointment
