Practitioners
After leaving the NHS, Tony worked with Notts County football club as a physiotherapist for their academy.
In 2017 Tony was working at Loughborough University where he got the opportunity to work with elite and international athletes, this enabled him to home his skills with the assessment and treatment of wide selection of different sports including, cricket, swimming, athletics, rowing, tennis, futsal, rugby and American football.
Tony has a specific interest in sports injuries and helping people who have persistent pain (people who have had pain for a long time), Tony’s approach is tailored to each person he sees making their rehabilitation specific for their needs and goals.
In April 2021, Tony took over at Rushcliffe Physiotherapy and Sports Injury clinic and lead physiotherapist to the Nottingham Outlaws Rugby League team.
Whatever your goal, Tony will facilitate your rehabilitation whilst also aiding you to improve your quality of life.
Having worked in adult rehabilitation in the community, Amanda has specialised in babies, children and young people with neurodevelopmental conditions for 15 years in Cambridgeshire, London and here in Nottingham.
I offer a thorough assessment and will work with you to develop a plan towards achieving your goals. The use of hands-on positioning, therapeutic handling to minimise any unwanted movement and support to carry out exercise programmes.
I have a particular interest in orthotics and the orthotic/footwear combination to fine tune and optimise gait. I have worked and run joint clinics with orthotists and senior clinicians analysing gait.
Increasingly I have become interested in the positive benefits of exercise, and activities to support well being and good mental health. This can include promoting inclusion for children, and families with disabilities to access everyday settings, such as leisure centres, travel and family outings.
It can also include reframing how we adapt exercise to meet new situations, such as with ageing, or wear and tear on joints, whilst still finding enjoyment. It could be getting a little bit stronger to be able to fulfil a goal, for example ‘running’.
Outside work, my main passion is gardening, whether indoor plants or outdoor, my own garden or at a community garden.
Since qualifying she has worked within the NHS treating a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, including sports injuries, trauma and orthopaedics, back pain, acute injuries, and long term muscular problems.
Her specialist area of interest is Pelvic Health, where Carrie has built 4 years of experience treating women with antenatal/postnatal aches and pains, incontinence, prolapse, painful sex, tummy muscle separation, staying active whilst pregnant and returning to fitness post baby.
During her time in this field she has attended various seminars and courses, to extend her knowledge and further drive her passion. She has also been a guest lecturer at The University of Nottingham, teaching on the pelvic health module to the undergraduate physiotherapists.
Carrie has an 11month old daughter and likes competing in long distance running events. She understands that post natal recovery is a tricky path to navigate, and she is keen to help all women through this journey, whether its returning to day to day life without incontinence, or having the strength to run a marathon.

She continues my professional development and more recently included diplomas in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy and Solution Focused Brief Therapy.
Sue has worked extensively with the approach that the mind impacts the body and vice versa which is why I have chosen to work integratively and holistically to support clients’ awareness in ways they can be impacted and then progressed.
Sue has been in practice for many years and will work with clients to explore the difficulties experienced while introducing strategies and techniques to help build resilience and confidence towards a healthier sense of self.
