Our Staff - Fulham (London)

Phil Chesters

I graduated from St Marys University with honours degree in sports rehabilitation, and I have been working at PhysioandTherapy for just over six months.

The specialist sports rehabilitation training integrates perfectly with physiotherapy and allows me the ability to not only to treat the presenting symptoms but also address the fundamental contributing factors with individualised exercise programmes and techniques to help prevent long term reoccurrence.

While studying I spent time with private injury clinics, a physiotherapy performance centre and with semi-professional sports clubs and athletes, where I was heavily involved with taking players through their accelerated rehab programs to the point where they could return to match fitness.

My expertise in sports massage has been developed through working at many national events including the London marathon and moonwalk providing pre and post sports massage, and have recently been part of a sports massage team who worked with the New Zealand rugby union side whilst they were over on a UK tour.

Sports/Interests

Outside of the physio room I am a contracted player at Ealing Rugby Club playing part time at a semi-professional level. Playing sport all my life is one of the reasons why I have such a huge interest in sports injuries and their rehabilitation.

I am a very warm and friendly individual who enjoys working with patients to achieve their individual health and sporting goals.
