Alex is a sports injury specialist with experience of rehabilitation in several settings including hospitals, private practice, professional sports clubs and National sports rehab facilities. A dynamic hands-on approach is combined with current scientific theories and cutting edge treatment methods is adopted to provide patients with comprehensive and specialist injury treatment. While many patients are athletes, the same holistic approach is applied to benefit all individuals regardless of age, ability or activity level.
Alex has a particular interest in rehabilitation following ACL reconstruction after personally enduring the process twice. He also has a focused interest in ‘core stability’ with his research project winning a prestigious national award.
Continuing post graduate training and personal research equip Alex to assess, treat, and rehabilitate patients back to optimum levels of functional, occupational or sports specific fitness, whilst reducing the risk of re-injury, regardless of age and ability.
As a former professional footballer Alex’s interest in rehabilitation and sports medicine began following consecutive knee injuries that lead to an early exit from the football league. His former clubs include Reading, Carlisle United and the Vancouver Whitecaps. He has competed internationally representing England on the 5-a-side Futsal team and has also competed as a county level athlete.
Since ‘retiring’ from football Alex now enjoys a wide variety of activity including running (with or without shoes), mountain biking, adventure racing and generally being outside. When not burning up endless energy Alex may be found sitting by a river trying to catch dinner, cooking, trying to play his guitar or planning/dreaming about his next adventure. Having spent a number of summers in Canada, Alex has developed an intriguing fascination with Bears and has been involved in research projects with some of Canada’s top Bear biologists!
"Alex treated me after I was knocked off my bicycle. I have looked forward to sessions with Alex, knowing that the treatment and exercise he sets will quicken my recovery. Alex has been a key part in my return to competition, where I recently set PBs in two events on the same weekend."
