🚀 Progress in action!

Willie, one of our stroke rehab patients, recently teamed up with Kevin, our Performance Manager, for an exciting session using our VALD Performance testing kit.

Together, they gathered valuable insights into Willie’s strength and balance — key markers that will shape the next phase of his rehabilitation journey. With clear objective data to guide us, we’re looking forward to reassessing in a month and seeing the progress come to life!

We had a fantastic training session with VALD specialist Scott Vallance from VALD Performance

We have recently added further to our performance testing kit, with testing kit now at both Westhill and Aberdeen Sports Village. There is also more advanced kit to test hamstrings and muscle strength.

The performance testing we can offer, with our new gym at Westhill and access to the fab facilities at ASV, means that we are expertly placed to look after the rehab needs of all our patients. We are completely accountable to our treatment, being able to objectively assess the results of rehab and ensure focus is on the main needs of our patients.

Our patient outcomes show that 91% of our patients report their symptoms to be at an acceptable level after treatment with us 3 months after treatment. We are not just a short term fix, but a long term rehab solution.

SPEAR Physio Alvin delivered a workshop to the Aberdeen Sports Village Squash and Racketball Club, supporting their Performance Development Programme, on Monday evening. He talked about all things Injury Prevention and performance optimisation and generated a great Q&A discussion.
A massive thank you to Arthur Strachan for inviting us along. We love helping local clubs with their player development. Lots of top tips to share.

A surprise tea party from the neuro team for Lesley’s birthday. 🎂
Some work did get done (with tea and cake ).

An inservice from Iona and Michelle exploring the concept that Physiotherapy is grounded in science. But the real magic? That lives in the art. Not in textbooks or protocols. Not in special tests or the ability to name every muscle, tendon or nerve. The art is something quieter, less defined – yet every bit as powerful. It’s the creative problem-solving, the instinct to listen deeply, the ability to adapt a treatment plan on the spot. It’s how we connect across differences, make someone feel truly seen and build trust when they’re at their most uncertain.

This is what an appointment at at SPEAR looks like.
To make an appointment call 01224 900102 or email hello@spearphysiotherapy.co.uk

SPEAR is excited to welcome Kevin Symon to the team as our performance manager.
Kevin brings over 12 years’ experience working in elite professional football, having held senior performance roles across the English Premiership, English Championship, Scottish Premiership and European competition, most recently as Head of Performance at Aberdeen FC.

As Performance Manager at SPEAR Physiotherapy, Kevin will lead the development of a brand-new performance arm of the business, designed to complement and enhance the clinic’s existing physiotherapy services.

His role will focus on overseeing and facilitating services such as strength & conditioning, athletic development and performance testing, ensuring these are effectively integrated with the clinic’s rehabilitation pathways. Working closely with the physiotherapy team and specialist practitioners, Kevin will help create a seamless transition from injury rehabilitation to full return to performance for both athletes and active individuals.

We will also be extending this service into the corporate sector to optimise health and wellbeing in the workplace.

Please get in touch if any of these services are of interest to you.

It’s another exciting chapter for SPEAR that will hugely benefit patient care and treatment 🤩
