Simon Barnes

Simon is a Consultant Chartered Physiotherapist, a musculoskeletal specialist.

As well as dealing with ‘standard’ musculoskeletal issues, he also has specialist interests in dealing with chronic pain, complex issues, fractures and trauma.

“I am completely committed to helping people out of pain, and my aim is that everyone coming to the clinic leaves in a better place. If Physiotherapy isn’t the whole answer, I have a network of contacts in the medical and orthopaedic world, so that I can direct patients and hopefully give them the best possible outcome.”

With extensive knowledge and experience in every area of Physiotherapy, we recommend booking with Simon if you are unsure where to go or who to see, or if you have tried treatments elsewhere and are looking for a different approach.

As well as his Physiotherapy degree, Simon has qualifications and extensive experience in medical acupuncture, medical electricity, osteopathic manipulations, HVT manipulations, fitness instruction, and personal training. When treating patients, he, therefore, has many skills to choose from and so can provide a considered, rounded approach based on extensive experience gained in treating people for over 20 years. His skill lies in providing strategy to chronic and complex conditions, and ensuring patients reach the best people in the field, whether people in our own team at the clinic or externally.

Simon previously worked with Bath Rugby helping with their training and injuries and has always worked full-time in private practice. In his spare time, he was previously in the Royal Marine Reserves and competed at County level in Judo. He now takes things a bit more leisurely and enjoys walking and spending time with his young family.
