Career Background
Previous trampoline coach, 6 Years in private practice
My approach is straightforward, friendly, empathetic focus on getting all the information, mental health and physical health focus.
I try to take in the whole picture rather than just look at the symptoms – look at the cause and other combining factors. Taking it with a straigth forward but open and friendly approach,
The most important factor is understanding, taking in the whole picture- physical injury and mental health – any stressors, consistency and building strength to bulletproof their rehab in order to prevent another injury.

Liz Ogburn July 26 – Sophie at the Chandlers Ford clinic put me at ease straight away.
She spent time listening to and confirming my symptoms which I appreciated.
She then ran through adjustments that I could make, followed by a massage and importantly ran through simple exercises that would be beneficial.
Professional and courteous throughout.
This was followed up with an email link to the exercises.
Lilly Coull Sept 26 – Sophie has been an absolute lifeline for me since my injuries. Her kindness and down to Earth nature makes her so incredible at her job. I cannot recommend goPhysio enough!

Joy Matthews June 26 – Recommended Sophie at goPhysio and SO pleased I followed up. Such a lovely, helpful and friendly young lady. Sophie understood my problems, provided hands on relief, exercises to assist, and referred me for an x-ray which resulted in ‘finally’ getting an appointment to treat my underlying problems.
goPhysio is a friendly space, especially the reception staff! Thank you!
I mostly treat Paediatrics and under 30’s trying to get them back to doing whst they love most,
Your first appointment is an opportunity for me to get to know you as a whole person—not simply focus on your injury. Pain is not always caused by one physical problem, Pain can be influenced by many different factors, so we will discuss your injury alongside anything else that may be affecting your symptoms or rehabilitation, such as life stresses, sleep, work, activity levels and general wellbeing as well as what is important to you, any concerns you may have and what you would like to return to doing. We will also consider any wider factors that could be influencing your symptoms, pain levels or progress with rehabilitation.
I will complete a thorough assessment of your injury, as well as looking more broadly at your movement, strength and overall function. Your appointment may also include some hands-on treatment where appropriate.
We will then discuss my findings, the recommended next steps and a treatment plan focused on achieving your individual goals. You will also receive a personalised home exercise programme to help you manage your symptoms and continue progressing between appointments.
My approach to treatment is collaborative, personalised and goal-focused. I use a combination of exercise rehabilitation, education, hands-on treatment and practical advice, depending on what is most appropriate for you.
I aim to help you understand your symptoms, build confidence in your body and develop the tools to manage your condition independently. Your treatment will be regularly reviewed and adapted as you progress, ensuring it continues to support your goals and the activities that matter most to you.
