Susan Pattison

Chartered Physiotherapist and Director

LANCASHIRE & GREATER MANCHESTER BASED

I am a highly experienced neurological physiotherapist with a passion for the rehabilitation of patients living with neurological conditions including stroke, spinal cord injury, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, and cerebral palsy but with a special focus on head injury. The depth and breadth of my experience in adult head injury is from intensive care to community rehabilitation.

It was my awareness of the lack of community services that lead me to set up private practice in 1998 to meet this need. I describe myself as a people magpie and have evolved a team of talented therapists who share my passion and enthusiasm.

I am an enthusiastic supporter of UKABIF and in 2019 was awarded the Chair’s Certificate of Merit.

SP Therapy Services will celebrate its 25th year in 2023, and I am proud of our reputation for clinical excellence.

I strive to actively support my clinical team to be the best they possibly can and to share their clinical expertise by presenting posters at relevant conferences.

Leena Najia

Chartered Physiotherapist

GREATER MANCHESTER BASED

I am a confident and outgoing neurological physiotherapist with a special interest in aquatic/hydrotherapy physiotherapy. I am a firm believer that a holistic approach to rehabilitation not only provides better clinical outcomes, but also motivates the clients to help themselves achieve the best possible quality of life.

I bring my energetic nature to my treatment sessions when appropriate. Building the confidence of the individual, making therapy both interesting and enjoyable.

I’m passionate about empowering individuals to engage in activities that they would not feel possible without my support; enabling them to identify a path to independence.

From the start of my professional career my interest has been neurological conditions. As a rotational Physiotherapist, I have spent time on the stroke ward and the surgical ward. Following some time working in the NHS, I decided to further strengthen my neurology skills by branching out into the private sector taking a post as a neurological physiotherapist.

Robert Butterworth

Chartered Physiotherapist

LANCASHIRE BASED

I am a dedicated Neurological Physiotherapist with a passion for sports coaching. I bring to my role my wealth of knowledge from over 25 years’ experience as a sports coach; owning and running a centre specialising in Martial Arts tuition.

I work with patients and their support workers in their homes as well as in gym based environments. I am able to help patients move beyond guided exercise to empower them to make their own decisions and choices. My history of sports coaching means that I have a very clear understanding of strength and conditioning and helping people change their behaviour to start and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

I’m committed to developing the skills of support workers, whether it be the principles of an effective exercise programme, or the fine details of how to use specific handing techniques to lower muscle tone and increase range of movement in a joint. Physiotherapy and rehabilitation is a team approach, ensuring the whole team understands the theory behind the programme is vital to ensure optimal progress.
