About Motion

We're here to help you get back to you.

Motion was founded in Blackpool in 2019 with a simple belief: healthcare should start with the person, not just the problem.

Because when you’re in pain or injured, you’re rarely thinking about the name of a muscle, joint or diagnosis.

You’re thinking about the run you’re missing. The shift you’re struggling through. The sport you can’t play. The disrupted sleep. Or the everyday things that suddenly aren’t as easy as they used to be.

That’s what matters to us.

Our job is to understand what’s getting in your way and help you find a way forward.

Our Approach

It starts with listening.

Before we decide what you need, we want to understand you.

We’ll listen to what’s been happening, what you’re worried about and how the problem is affecting your life. We’ll assess what’s going on and explain what we find in a way that actually makes sense.

Then we make a plan together.

Sometimes hands-on treatment may be useful. Sometimes the priority is rebuilding strength or movement. Sometimes you simply need a better understanding of what’s happening and the confidence to start doing more again.

And if we don’t think something is right for you, we’ll tell you.

Every decision starts with the person in front of us.

What We Believe

Good care should give you confidence, not dependence.

We don’t measure success by how many appointments you have.

We measure it by what you’re able to get back to.

That means everything we do should have a purpose. We’ll explain why we’re recommending something, involve you in decisions and adapt your plan as you progress.

Ultimately, we want you to understand your body better, trust it more and feel confident getting on with your life without feeling like you need to keep coming back to us.

That’s what patient-centred care means to us.

Our story

Built in Blackpool.
Built around people.

Motion was founded by Rhys Daly and Oliver Johnson in 2019.

2019 / The beginning

Founded by Rhys Daly and Oliver Johnson

Both came from backgrounds in sport and musculoskeletal healthcare, but the ambition for Motion was never to build a clinic only for athletes.

Our ambition

Treating people properly.

It was to create somewhere that combined good clinical reasoning and modern rehabilitation with something much simpler: treating people properly.

Growing together

A wider team. The same principle.

Since then, Motion has grown from two clinicians into a wider team of Physiotherapists and Sports Therapists helping people across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast.

The clinic has grown, but the principle behind it hasn't changed.

What matters to us

Listen to the person. Understand what matters to them. And do what's right for their recovery.

Motion

The people behind Motion.

Different backgrounds. 33 years of combined experience. One shared approach to looking after the person in front of us.

Our team brings 33 years of combined experience from private healthcare, the NHS and sporting environments, but what matters most is how that knowledge is used to help you.

Our Purpose

Get out of pain. Get back to life.

That’s what Motion comes back to.

For one person, getting back to life might mean competing again.

For someone else, it might mean going to work, walking the dog, getting back in the gym or being able to play with their children.

Your goal doesn’t need to be impressive to anyone else.

It just needs to matter to you.

And we’ll do everything we reasonably can to help you work towards it.
