Ellie Lewis

My career began as a private MSK physiotherapist, working across two clinics in the Cambridge area. At Light Blue Clinic, I gained valuable experience working within elite sport, supporting the Cambridge University Rowing Club with injury assessment, rehabilitation and preparation for the annual Boat Race. This developed my clinical reasoning around return-to-sport decision-making and managing injuries within high-performance environments. I also worked with a wide range of university athletes across sports including rugby, netball, cricket and tennis.
Working alongside an osteopath, strength and conditioning coach and sports therapist also gave me the opportunity to develop a broader, multidisciplinary approach to rehabilitation, appreciating the value of combining different areas of expertise to achieve the best outcomes for patients.
During my time at the Injury Recovery Centre, I further broadened my clinical experience by managing a diverse range of musculoskeletal conditions across different ages, injury mechanisms and stages of rehabilitation. This strengthened my ability to assess and treat patients as individuals, develop evidence-informed rehabilitation programmes and adapt my approach to suit their goals and lifestyle.
Across both clinics, I have developed a patient-centred approach that combines thorough assessment, clinical reasoning and progressive rehabilitation, with a focus on helping people return to the activities that matter most to them.
