Physiotherapy in Guisborough l My Core Wellbeing
Hi, I'm Sammy 👋
I had surgery on my spine when I was 18 — and it changed how I think about the body for good. It's why I'm so passionate about health and movement: not just fixing pain when it shows up, but protecting yourself for the long term, so you can keep doing the things you love. For me, that's enjoying life with my young family now, and staying active and capable for whatever comes next.
That's the thinking behind My Core Wellbeing. I built a team around me who share that same approach — properly listening to people, not rushing them through a ten-minute slot and hoping the exercises sort it out.
We still see many of the people who walk through our door in Guisborough for the same reason: they've been let down before. Rushed appointments. Conflicting advice. Treatment that never quite got to the root of the problem. Or they're just not sure where to start.
That's exactly why we do things differently here. Before you book anything, you can talk directly to one of our physiotherapists on the phone about what's going on — no pressure, no obligation, just a conversation. Most people tell us it's the most reassuring first step they could have taken.
Private Physiotherapy in Guisborough
Whatever's brought you to us — a bad back, a sports injury, arthritis, recovering from surgery, or pain that's been dragging on for months — we start the same way: a thorough assessment so we actually understand what's causing it, not just where it hurts.
We treat:
- Back and neck pain
- Sports injuries
- Joint pain and arthritis
- Post-operative rehabilitation
- Tendon and muscle injuries
- Persistent, long-term pain
Treatment combines hands-on therapy, exercise rehab tailored to you, and honest, practical advice — plus medical acupuncture where it helps.

Pregnancy and the months after having a baby put your body through a lot — and you shouldn't have to just put up with it. We support women through pregnancy and postnatal recovery with hands-on physiotherapy and dedicated classes designed for exactly this stage of life.

Bridget - Winning Life at 70
"I suppose I’ve been coming to Pilates just over a year now, and it has helped many things......aches and pains, if they can’t be eliminated, they can be minimised, so life can be maximised! Pilates can help put measures in place to support and mitigate the weaknesses so that life can be lived more fully."
Charlie - Enjoying family life
"After being told I wouldn't make it through my first pregnancy without ending up on crutches I turned to Sammy for help. Following a combination of hands on treatment with Pilates and Yoga, I am so happy to say that not only did I get through the rest of my pregnancy with only a few 'niggles', but I did the second pregnancy too! I'm now able to get out and enjoy my precious time with my two young children."
Jacqui - Taking life back into her own hands
"Sammy fixed my back when I couldn't walk using physio, acupuncture and her Pilates Class. I love going to class even though I feel like am rubbish at doing some of the exercises. It is fun and Sammy keeps a close eye on us all making sure we are doing things right and watching out for all our individual health problems. Its brilliant and we all get on so well and laugh together.
Love it."
