MEET Andrea Da Ros

Physiotherapist

Back to What You Love, Faster, Stronger and With a Plan That Lasts

Holding a BSc and Sports and Exercise Science and an MSc in Physiotherapy, Andrea has a keen interest in getting people back to doing what they enjoy. Integrating both disciplines has allowed Andrea to develop a holistic approach to exercise and performance that takes into account factors outside simply injury and pain.

The experience gained from his early career in the UK NHS/Public Health Sector has provided Andrea with exposure to a vast array of health conditions, injuries and orthopedic patients. His interest in sports injuries led to working in the private sector, where he further developed these skills to help people return to sports and activity, supporting them throughout the entire journey.
