Matt Ryan

Clinical Team Lead

Matt is an experienced Clinical Team Lead and Specialist Physiotherapist at AquaPhysio, with a passion for helping patients navigate complex rehabilitation journeys. He qualified as a Physiotherapist from St George’s University of London, following a BSc in Sport & Exercise Science at the University of Portsmouth. By combining these two fields, Matt has developed advanced skills in movement analysis, manual therapy, and exercise prescription, allowing him to create highly individualised treatment plans that promote long-term recovery.

Since qualifying, Matt has specialised in musculoskeletal and orthopaedic rehabilitation, working across the NHS, professional sport, and private practice. His career has included roles as Lead Academy Physiotherapist at AFC Wimbledon and working with Woking FC’s first team during their National League promotion campaign. Since 2018, Matt has been committed to private practice, helping individuals of all ages and abilities regain confidence, mobility, and strength.

A key part of Matt’s expertise lies in managing complex trauma cases, where he thrives on guiding patients from their first session through to discharge. Whether working with post-surgical patients, sports injuries, or long-term pain conditions, he takes pride in developing structured, progressive rehabilitation plans that address both physical recovery and overall well-being.

Outside of work, Matt can usually be found cycling around London, Richmond Park, or the Surrey Hills, always on the hunt for a great coffee spot!
