Charlie set up Physio Active Healthcare in 2015 which now has 8 clinics across Essex, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire. Prior to this he worked at Chelsea, Arsenal and Southend United Football Clubs where he worked with the first team and was Head Academy Physio. Here he gained valuable experience and skills in how best to help athletes return safely and quickly to sport following injury.
Charlie qualified with a first class Honours degree from The University of East London and volunteered at the 2012 London Olympics. He’s also worked with Eaton Manor Rugby Club and with a 2017 Worlds Strongest Man Finalist.
Being a keen sportsman himself, Charlie has specialised in sports injuries with a particular interest in cycling and running related injuries. He’s a professional bike fitter and combines his clinical and bike fitting skills to bring a unique approach to providing the most comfortable and performance focused fit on a bike for those with pains when cycling.
Charlie visits each clinic performing diagnostic ultrasound scans to ensure our clients have the correct diagnosis to receive the most effectively treatment, dramatically improving our clients rate of recovery from injury. He is trained to use extracorporeal shockwave therapy and combines the two machines to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment.
