About Dave

Dave is the founder and Managing Director of Physio Fitness — and the heart of its mission: to help people of all ages move better, feel stronger, and get back to doing what they love.

With over 30 years of experience, two degrees, and a background in elite sport, Dave brings world-class knowledge and a deeply personal approach to every patient he treats. He’s worked with international athletes, Premier League footballers, and hundreds of local patients — from weekend warriors to those rebuilding strength after surgery or managing arthritis.

While Dave now leads the clinic’s direction and development, he still treats a small number of patients each week. His style is warm, honest, and focused on outcomes — blending hands-on skill with the latest technology and a passion for helping people live pain-free, active lives.

Clinical Interests
  • Degenerative conditions and arthritis
  • Long-term joint pain and mobility issues
  • Sports injuries and return to sport
  • Recovery from chronic conditions
  • Alternative therapies (breathwork, cold water exposure, sauna use)

Outside the Clinic
Away from the clinic, Dave is always moving. He still plays 11-a-side football, hikes across Dorset, cycles regularly, snowboards when he can, and is even partial to a bit of snowshoeing. He’s also a trained Wim Hof Method instructor, bringing breathing techniques and cold-water immersion into both his personal life and professional work.

Fun Fact
Dave has a personal goal to play full 11-a-side football until he’s at least 80. If you ask him, he’ll probably tell you it’s going to happen.
