About Lewis Rowe
Chartered Physiotherapist with a background in sports injury and MSK rehabilitation, bringing that same standard to every patient.
Book NowA way of thinking, not just a way of treating
I’m Lewis Rowe, founder of The Physio Dorset and a Chartered Physiotherapist with a background in sports injury and MSK rehabilitation. Before starting the clinic I spent several years working in one of the south’s leading sports injury clinics, where I worked alongside and treated athletes from grassroots level through to professionals.
What that environment taught me isn’t just clinical skill: it’s a way of thinking. Measuring outcomes objectively. Building structured rehab that addresses root causes. Treating the whole person, not just the scan or the symptom. I’ve brought all of that to The Physio Dorset, and it’s what makes this clinic different.
The core philosophy is simple: measure outcomes objectively, build structured rehab that addresses root causes, and treat the whole person rather than chasing the symptom.
