“As a “slightly older” regular runner I’ve had a couple of issues over the past two years. Both times I’ve been treated by Connor Davidson and both times I’ve ended up better than new thanks to his treatment and advice. Can’t recommend both Connor and Balanced enough. ”

About Connor
I have a broad background in musculoskeletal physiotherapy, with experience across both NHS and private practice. I spent two years completing NHS rotations, progressing to a Band 6 MSK role, before gaining more than three years of experience in private musculoskeletal practice.
Throughout my career, I have worked across a variety of rehabilitation settings, including care homes, hospital wards, community and home-based care, gyms and sports performance environments. I also have experience delivering a range of MSK rehabilitation classes, helping people at different stages of their recovery.
Before pursuing physiotherapy, I studied Sport and Exercise Science at the University of Sydney and the University of Stirling, which has helped shape my approach to rehabilitation, movement and performance.

What Patients Say
“As a “slightly older” regular runner I’ve had a couple of issues over the past two years. Both times I’ve been treated by Connor Davidson and both times I’ve ended up better than new thanks to his treatment and advice. Can’t recommend both Connor and Balanced enough. “
– Paul, 27th Aug 2026
“Connor assisted me expertly with a shoulder injury. I would highly recommend him and would certainly be a returning customer for any future issues.”
– Hamish, May 2026
“Connor has been fantastic treating my Achilles tendinopathy. Shockwave and tailored rehab kept me progressing despite marathon setbacks. Three weeks out, I’ve reached 32.5km, something I didn’t think possible. His expertise and structured approach made this possible.”
– Fiona, May 2026
“Working with Connor Davidson to solve my foot pain has been a huge challenge, but his care, patience and inspiration has led me to a place where I am now pain free and starting to enjoy movement again. His knowledge and teaching skills have changed my life- a big statement, but genuinely true. I heartily recommend Balanced Physiotherapy to help you get to the bottom of any issues you are experiencing.”
– Rae, 2025
