Megan Robinson

Rehabilitation Practitioner

 

My interest in physiotherapy began at a young age after experiencing treatment myself, which sparked a lasting curiosity about how the body moves and heals. Having always been active, I was drawn to understanding injury prevention and recovery, which led me to study Sports Therapy. This provided a strong foundation in musculoskeletal rehabilitation and highlighted my passion for helping people restore function and quality of life.

​

I later gained valuable experience working in a neurological physiotherapy clinic, where I worked closely with individuals recovering from and managing neurological conditions. This experience was incredible and something I thoroughly enjoyed. This motivated me to further my education in physiotherapy to develop further. 

​

I am now completing my Master’s in Physiotherapy, currently in my first year and having recently finished my second placement. I am particularly interested in neurological rehabilitation and I look forward to developing my clinical reasoning, evidence-based practice, and multidisciplinary collaboration skills as I progress toward a rewarding career in physiotherapy.

Andy Smith

Rehabilitation Practitioner

 

Andy is a second-year Physiotherapy student at the University of Leicester. His interest in the profession grew from his own experience of spending years in physiotherapy after multiple injuries in a previous career. Seeing the impact that rehab had on his life pushed him toward a path where he could support others in the same way.

He has a particular interest in the psychological impact of injury and illness, especially for people living with long-term neurological conditions. He values being part of a client’s journey over time, observing their progress, adjusting treatment, and making care genuinely personal.

Andy is especially passionate about neuroplasticity and how the brain adapts through repetition and practice. This idea shapes much of his approach, and he enjoys seeing clients make steady, meaningful gains from session to session.

His wider interests sit in whole-body health and how lifestyle, sleep, nutrition, and stress influence recovery. Alongside his physiotherapy training, he holds a Level 4 qualification in Sports Massage Therapy. Outside the clinic, you’ll usually find him outdoors — camping, kitesurfing, paragliding — or working with horses, which he enjoys just as much!
