Toby Sullivan MCSP
Toby has been taught in the latest evidence based practises at St George's, University of London.
As a long-term weekend warrior of numerous sports (currently various Olympic Distance Triathlons, l'Etape du Tour and the Berlin Marathon) he understands the frustration of injury and the importance of early sport (or job) specific rehabilitation to enable a speedy return.
Gone are the days of 'receiving physiotherapy'. Treatment is a two-way commitment. Toby will identify the causes of the problem, make it less painful and get you moving. You will do the exercises and make the changes to your posture, to your technique, to your life or to whatever is necessary to keep it that way.
Over the last few years Toby has been the physiotherapist to numerous athletes including Rugby players (Hammersmith and Fulham RFC, Wasps Ladies, Middlesex Ladies), Street dancers from the West End and Film (Into the Hoods, StreetDance 3D, Flawless, George Sampson) as well as supporting Daley Thompson and Hugo Porta on their 7 day cycle ride for the Laureus Sport for Good Foundation.
