About Me

Chris Whiteway

Hi, I’m Chris, a Chartered Physiotherapist and a Myofascial Therapist, with 39 years of musculo-skeletal experience in both the Private and NHS sectors.

Chartered Society of Physiotherapy Crest

After qualifying in 1981, I worked in the NHS for 12 years. As a Superintendent Physiotherapist in a large District Hospital I had responsibility for delivering Physiotherapy Services to Trauma & Orthopaedics. This included A&E, General Out-Patients, Orthopaedic In-Patients and Community/Domiciliary settings.

After the NHS I ran successful private clinics in Harley Street and the West End in London. I then moved to South Somerset to set up a practice from my home, where I have continued to develop and learn new skills that can help people in pain and get them back to the activities they enjoy.

I am the sole practitioner at my clinic so you’ll never end up seeing someone less experienced.

Even after all these years the enthusiasm for my work and the pleasure I get in being able to help patients has not diminished. If anything I find it increasingly satisfying and rewarding.
