Hi, I’m Amit Rao, the Clinical Director and Lead Physiotherapist at Physical Wellness. With over a two decade of hands-on experience, I am passionate about delivering high-quality, evidence-based physiotherapy tailored to each individual. My approach combines the latest scientific knowledge with manual therapy techniques to help my patients move better, feel better, and live well.
My Journey
My physiotherapy career began in 2002 , Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working across a wide range of settings, including the NHS, BUPA, Orthopaedics, community rehabilitation, care homes, and sports physiotherapy. These diverse experiences have shaped my clinical expertise and deepened my understanding of musculoskeletal conditions and complex rehabilitation needs.
I hold Master’s-level qualifications in both Physiotherapy and in Injection Therapy. Most recently, I have become a verified First Contact Physiotherapist (FCP) in primary care, allowing me to provide advanced assessment and treatment right at the first point of contact for patients.

My Philosophy
At the heart of my practice is a commitment to personalised care. I believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. My aim is to empower you with the knowledge and tools to take control of your health, and I strive to build strong, trusting relationships with every individual I work with.
Beyond the Clinic
When I’m not working, I’m a proud husband and father of two. I enjoy spending quality time with my family, staying active, going for long walks, and cycling through the great outdoors. These moments keep me grounded and remind me why wellness—both physical and emotional—is so important.
