In each appointment, Colin was quick and efficient at analysing the root of the problem, treating the affected area so that I could return to training as quickly as possible and providing exercises to help healing and prevention in the future. Each hour was packed full of information and treatment with no time wasted. Both treatments have been successful enabling me to complete both an ironman triathlon and a marathon this year…

I received a recommendation for this place from a colleague after a while of having a bad back.
I’ve never been to a physio so wasn’t too sure what to expect. They’re located in the west stand of Easter Road stadium, so easy to find and get parked. Once inside everything was very professional, the receptionist was friendly and promptly dealt with me. Everything seemed very clean, modern but not too intimidating either. Not like the…

Colin worked not only on my individual injuries, but also my fitness. He was able to asses my weaknesses and make me an all-round better athlete. I feel fitter, sharper and more focussed than I ever have done. He is able to break down the pieces and build them back up again focusing on what is right and when to do them. I feel my all round game is better than it ever has been.

I know Colin from my time at Hibs, where he was Head Physiotherapist. He is a great professional and a totally dedicated guy.

It’s no exaggeration to say that two months of working with Colin has been life-changing.
I’ve always enjoyed playing different sports but had become disheartened after a three injury-plagued years. I felt slow, sluggish and unable to perform at anything like the standard I had previously. Booking an appointment with Back2Fitness was a last resort and it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. After talking through my goals with Colin he…

My running style is far from perfect and has caused me lots of problems in the past. Bill Kerr at Back2Fitness analyised my gait and created a pair orthotics for my shoes which have been great since day one. My stride seems a lot more stable and in the year that I have been wearing my orthotics aches and pains and time off due to injury have dropped dramatically. Thanks.

Back2Fitness diagnosed my injury without fuss and got down to sorting it immediately. I was very impressed with their professionalism and detailed exercises to aid recovery. Any other niggles I had during my visits received the same attention and without doubt Back2Fitness is a one stop shop for any keen athlete.

Two weeks before the Edinburgh mararthon something in my left calf went twang and I had to stop running. After months of training I was distraught. Never having been to a physio in my life before, thinking they were for elite athletes, I contacted a friend to see if he could recommend someone. That someone turned out to be Colin [at Back2Fitness]. After a couple of sessions involving laser treatment, ultrasound and much manipulation I made…

I can’t thank the Back2Fitness team enough for the help that they provided in the run up to the Berlin Marathon. I injured myself a month before the race and Colin was able to get me back on my feet in time for the big day. Expert analysis, effective treatment and good advice. Good to know that you don’t need to be a pro athlete or pay a fortune to get a first class service.

Being a keen runner I have received treatment from Colin over the years for different injuries, every-time I was diagnosed instantly and within only 2 sessions the difference was amazing.
I particularly remember when I was left devastated thinking I wouldn’t beable to complete my first marathon alongside my dad Colin couldn’t have been more helpful. Having been a athlete himself, he fully understands the need to get back racing as…

When competing at the highest level you need to be in safe hands, I have complete faith in Colin. His knowledge is second to none, and therefore he is someone I highly recommended!
Scott Brown – Footballer, Celtic Football Club Captain and Scotland International
Colin is a top Physio and a Top guy. Not only do I rate him as a Physio he is someone that I also trust!
Kevin Thomson – Footballer, Middlesbrough F.C and Scotland International
I was recommended Back2Fitness by a friend who had visited and recommended them to me. I had an old whiplash injury which was still giving me trouble after a car accident a few years ago (not my fault – someone ran in the back of me!). I had received treatment following my accident (from a city centre clinic my insurance company sent me to) but it was never fully resolved. After visiting Back2Fitness I felt the difference following my…
