Profile

MCSP HCPC Alex qualified from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2012 and proceeded to work for a charity in the south of the country before returning up north to work in St Helens NHS trust for 6 months. During this period he worked in a number of areas but musculoskeletal was always his main area of interest. It was from here that Alex moved to work for Sale Sharks rugby team where he originally started working with the junior academy. After one season he changed roles to working with the senior academy and first team. He worked for the club for two years and in which time he was part of a medical team that had the lowest injury rates in the premiership. In the last four years Alex has completed a number of physiotherapy courses to help further develop him as a physiotherapist. He works very much as a manual therapist but enjoys spending time using his rehabilitation knowledge to ensure his patients can return to full function.

Very impressed with my experience using Body Logic Health Physio services. I called up with a knee injury and was seen the same day by Alex P, who then worked with me over 2 months until I was fully recovered. A good combination of massage/trigger point as well as strengthening exercises, and very reassuring and happy to answer questions. Would fully recommend.

I went to see Alex after suffering with knee trouble for several years. He located and treated the problem incredibly quickly and with an excellent standard of care. I could not recommend him more highly and only wish I had been to see him sooner.

I returned to Paul Goss's clinic after 18 years because 4 different local physios could not sort my shoulder out following a snowboarding fall. In 2000, Paul sorted out my back following visits/therapy from 10 different sources. Paul took 10 mins to diagnose me and 3 sessions to sort things and leave me with exercises to control/sort the issue. this time around Paul handed me over to Alex and Alex has been marvellous in both understanding the issue and helping me obtain a full consultancy diagnosis (partially dislocated shoulder turning into 'frozen shoulder'). This was after the 5 other practitioners (including my GP), were unable to spot the underlying issue of 'frozen shoulder'. Alex then organised a consultancy-led injection followed by a course of treatment, stripped back to the absolutely necessary to start, then built up over time as my shoulder's own strength increased. The shoulder is now free of 'frozen shoulder' and nearly 100%. I'm up and running for this coming ski season. Ride that frozen way, baby!

I was recommended Alex by a colleague when I was having a bad bout of back pain due to rowing. Alex was excellent at getting to the root of the problem and not only alleviating the pain quickly, but also setting me on a course of exercises where I could continue rowing. He really understood that I wanted to be able to be back on the water as soon as possible and also how best to achieve this in a rowing-specific way. I would definitely recommend him!

Alex has treated both my son and I . He is a fantastic physio, explains everything clearly and sets out a plan at the start. He went through all the exercises that I needed to do at home to help repair my injury more quickly.. He is also very personable and puts you at ease from the beginning. I would highly recommend Alex. He is highly professional and extremely competent.

On day 1 of my 14-week marathon training, I was suffering from a knee pain that had been there since my last marathon more than half a year ago. Within a few weeks, the pain was gone, and I managed to finish my marathon 14 weeks later without any pain in my knee. Definitely recommend Alex as he is knowledgeable in what he does, and he makes sure I can both manage the pain and prevent the pain.

I brought my son into the clinic to improve his running technically as he is a footballer and had had some trouble with Osgood Schlatter.Alex was exceptional in all the work,training and care he gave to my son.Always friendly,polite and went out of his way to insure we were satisfied with the treatment as well as the routines,appointments and sessions in general.Can not praise Alex enough and would highly recommend anyone no matter what the issue to book with Alex,you will not be disappointed in the slightest.

I have been running marathons for nearly 10 years - frustrated by repeated issues with cramp in the latter stages of races, I decided to get my running technique looked at, and a personalised marathon programme done. Alex, has taken me to a completely different level with my running. 6 hour long sessions working on technique and the difference (he films you “before” and “after”) is remarkable. I feel stronger, am running faster, and the little niggles you tend to pick up along the way Alex has dealt with quickly and easily with appropriate exercises. What is more, the marathon programme has reinvigorated my enjoyment for running! It has been the best decision I have ever made with my training, and I can not recommend it highly enough. Alex is professional, knowledgable, and understood me / my drivers / my strengths / my weaknesses very quickly, to all add up to an excellent overall experience. Alistair Foley

I can't recommend Alex highly enough. After an initial consultation and 6 x 30 minute sessions, he has completely reversed a long standing problem with my lower back, to the point where it isn't noticeable any more! As the treatment was so effective, I also asked him to look at long term shoulder and knee niggles, both of which he has also corrected. I now have very simple stretching & strength building exercises which take no more than 20 minutes every other day, which will keep all the problems from returning. Calm, highly professional & extremely effective, Alex really is excellent.
