One of the biggest mistakes in sport rehab?

Thinking “pain free” means “ready.”

Because your knee feeling okay jogging in a straight line is very different to:
Cutting.
Landing.
Sprinting.
Decelerating.
Changing direction under fatigue.

That gap is where a lot of re-injuries happen.

Marco’s approach is making sure people don’t just feel better…
they’re actually prepared for the demands of their sport again.

A lot of his sessions happen out on the gym floor.
Testing movement.
Building confidence.
Seeing how the body performs under real load and speed again.

Not guesswork.
Not “just take it easy and see how you go.”

Actual progression back to sport.

Recovering from an injury can feel like guesswork.

How much should you do?
When is pain okay?
When can you get back to sport, work, the gym, or walking properly again?

At By Design Physio, we help you understand what’s happened, what stage you’re in, and what needs to happen next.

Not just hands-on treatment.
Not just exercises on a sheet.

A clear plan.
A realistic pathway.
And rehab that actually prepares you for real life again.

Live By Design, not by default.

Good rehab should not feel like homework.

If you’ve ever left physio with 8 exercises, three bands, two stretches, and absolutely no idea what actually matters…
you’re not alone.

Sam’s approach is making rehab make sense.

A few targeted movements.
Clear goals.
Step-by-step progressions.
And understanding WHY you’re doing what you’re doing.

Because simple rehab done consistently will always beat complicated rehab that lives in your Notes app for six months.

The goal isn’t to depend on rehab forever.

The goal is to understand your body well enough that you stop ending up back at square one every year.

Meet Marco 👋🏽

You’ll usually find him out on the gym floor somewhere.
Coaching.
Watching movement.
Talking sport.
Probably making someone sprint when they thought they were just coming in for “a quick rehab session.”

Marco’s background in sport and strength training heavily shapes how he works as a physio.

He understands that active people don’t just want pain relief.
They want confidence.
They want to trust their body again.
They want to get back to training, competing, running, jumping, kicking, lifting, and moving properly.

His rehab style is practical, calm, and performance focused.
A lot less lying on treatment beds.
A lot more helping people rebuild real-world movement.

A lot of women have been taught to stay “small” with movement.

Tiny weights (that are pink!!)
Tiny classes.
Tiny expectations.

Then they hit pregnancy, pain, injury, burnout, or years away from exercise…
and suddenly their body doesn’t feel like theirs anymore.

Sam’s approach blends physio, Pilates, dance, strength, and real-world movement to help women feel capable again.

Not just flexible.
Not just “activated.”
Actually strong.

Because grace and strength were never opposites.

Climbing rehab at By Design doesn't look like standard physio.

Tammy works with climbers at every level. She understands grip positions, volume changes, and what the wall actually asks of your body. Every session, we test and retest real climbing demands so you can see what's changing before you leave.

Most climbers don't need to stop climbing. They need smarter loading and the right guidance.

A lot of injuries don’t actually “heal badly.”

People just never get shown what’s REALLY driving them.

So they keep treating the sore spot.
Stretching it.
Massaging it.
Resting it.
Over and over again.

Meanwhile the actual issue is still sitting there in the background.

Kenan’s approach is zooming out first.

How do you move?
What’s your body avoiding?
What patterns keep showing up?
What changed before this all started?

Then we test meaningful movements and retest them throughout the session so people can actually feel change happening in real time.

Not random exercises handed over on a PDF.

Clear reasoning.
Targeted rehab.
And a body that finally starts making a bit more sense.

Most climbing injuries don’t happen because climbers are “weak.”

They happen because the demands of climbing are weirdly specific.

Finger loading.
Long hangs.
Shoulder control overhead.
Pulling strength at awkward angles.
Huge volume through tiny structures.

That’s why generic rehab often misses the mark.

Tamara climbs herself, so she actually understands the difference between:
“My shoulder hurts”
and
“My shoulder hurts halfway through an overhang after three hard attempts.”

Her sessions test real climbing demands in the room.
Not just random theraband exercises and “avoid climbing for six weeks.”

If climbing feels off, painful, weak, or unpredictable lately…
Tammy’s probably the conversation to have.

How to actually succeed with rehab:

1. Do less exercises more consistently
2. Understand WHY each exercise matters
3. Build rehab into routines you already have
4. Choose exercises that feel achievable
5. Focus on movements that improve real life
6. Stop chasing “perfect” rehab programs
7. Make it easy to start
8. Pair rehab with habits you already do
9. Ask for exercises that solve multiple problems at once
10. Consistency beats complexity every single time

The best rehab program is the one you’ll actually do.
