Physiotherapy
Our comprehensive physiotherapy services address musculoskeletal conditions across all age groups. We treat back pain, neck pain, sports injuries, and post-surgical rehabilitation using evidence-based techniques. Our specialists create tailored treatment plans combining manual therapy, exercise programmes, and advanced rehabilitation equipment. With clinics in Leeds, Harrogate, Ilkley, and Guiseley, we provide accessible care for both acute injuries and chronic conditions, focusing on restoring mobility and preventing future injuries through biomechanical assessments.
Sports Massage
Available at our Leeds and Chapel Allerton clinics, our sports massage therapy targets exercise and sports-related injuries. This treatment helps reduce muscle tension, improve flexibility, and accelerate recovery from sports injuries. Our therapists use deep tissue techniques combined with stretching and mobilisation to enhance athletic performance and prevent recurring injuries. Ideal for both professional athletes and recreational sports participants seeking improved physical conditioning and faster recovery times.
Women's Health
Specialist women's health physiotherapy services including the Mummy MOT post-natal assessment. Available at David Lloyd Leeds and Harrogate clinics, our qualified specialists address pelvic floor dysfunction, pre/post-natal care, and women's specific musculoskeletal issues. We provide confidential consultations and tailored rehabilitation programmes for bladder control issues, post-childbirth recovery, and pelvic girdle pain, using gentle techniques combined with targeted exercise programmes to restore core strength and functionality.
Bike Fitting
Our specialist bike fitting service optimises cycling performance while reducing injury risk. Using biomechanical assessment and physiotherapy expertise, we adjust bike geometry to match individual rider anatomy. The comprehensive assessment includes flexibility testing, posture analysis, and customised equipment recommendations. Available in three Yorkshire locations, this service benefits both recreational cyclists and competitive athletes seeking improved comfort, efficiency, and injury prevention through precise bike positioning.
Paediatric Physio
Dedicated children's physiotherapy services addressing musculoskeletal development and injury recovery. Our specialist in Harrogate and Leeds treats conditions like Sever's disease, Osgood-Schlatter's, and sports injuries using age-appropriate techniques.

Report
This is the second occasion that have used physio action at David Lloyd. My right hip this time. I have had 4 sessions , again with Gemma, and I am absolutely thrilled with the progress and how my hip feels. Before I was struggling to climb stairs and needed a pole to assist with long walks. My last session was Sept 14th and since then I completed derwent water circa 19k , I am back at the gym , and back to the driving range. So big thank you guys for working miracles again
Kind regards
