Aquian Orthopaedic Physio and Rehab runs an at home, community based, service in and around Epsom, Banstead, Cheam and Ewell. With the thriving town of Epsom as ur base, with major NHS and private hospitals like Epsom General, Ashstead, St Anthony’s and the Royal Marsden on our doorstep, we are well placed to serve your physio and rehab needs. Through our core step down hospital offering for both pre and post orthopaedic rehab and physio, typically following an elective or trauma surgery around major joints such as hips, knees and shoulders.
The team, including Steve, Chrissie and Emma have over decades built some specialist areas of physio treatment including the specialisation of knee, hip and back pain issues. He has also developed some proprietary functional physio-led sporting rehab programmes to ensure peak performance through positional movement rehab working with sports rehab therapists, sports therapists and coaches.
This means our team of Physio and Rehab specialists, specialise not just in orthopaedics but in sports injuries, but cater for all sporting injuries as well as extend through the team to general, clinical physio treatments.
However, as in other areas we serve and given the strong presence of NHS hospitals, the demand for self pay has increased due to the lack of available NHS community physios in the Epsom, Ewell, Banstead, Cheam and Ashtead areas. This service gap has provide Aquian with the opportunity to serve these communities and we have steadily been grown our presence and services in the area. We now treat patients across the age spectrum from elderly patients who are looking to maximise their movement and to prevent and sustain further challenges they may face with arthritic pain to sports injuries in children. Increasingly this has also involved more patients who continue to overcome complex conditions such as Parkinson’s and long Covid.
In all that we do and given our sporting and orthopaedic heritages we also now draw on leading movement, sports science techniques and technology (like a Compex muscle stimulator) into supporting all ages suffering with joint pain, sports injuries and soft tissue therapeutic needs all in the Epsom and surrounding areas.

We are able to do this by providing a full assessment and creating a rehabilitation programme that is specialised to your injury, and will establish a unique return to play pathway in the safest and quickest way possible. We also create a ‘prehabilitation’ programme with you which can help reduce the risk of re-injury and can allow athletes to play an active role in their recovery process.

We provide a range of sport based and exercise services such as physio led pilates, hydrotherapy training and/or treatment sessions, and fitness plans. Our team will work closely with you to achieve your recovery goals and can guide you on other areas of rehab specialisation that might be needed, eg surgery if required.
SOFT TISSUE THERAPY
Soft tissue therapy can benefit any athlete. We can offer soft tissue therapy for specific injuries, or for ongoing performance maintenance in order to prevent re-injury, through our high-quality treatment sessions. Our soft tissue therapy incorporates a variety of techniques such as deep/soft tissue release, muscle energy techniques, trigger points and assisted stretching etc.
The Importance Of Sports Injury Rehabilitation
Sports injuries occur when we least desire them and often when we are close to achieving our sporting goals. At Aquian we help athletes of all abilities return to their sport by creating an individualised care pathway, that will help you recover from the initial injury through to your return to play.
Our specialist team will work closely with you to help achieve your sports rehabilitation goals, by providing psychological and physiological support throughout your recovery process. Getting You Moving.
Keeping You Moving. At Aquian, we take a whole-person approach to all joint and muscle pain across all areas from backs and necks; hip and knee joint pain to ligament and muscle strains. We recognise that the most basic level, ongoing daily life puts pressure and strain on muscles, puts us in positions that impact our soft tissues and bone structures, which when fatigued places pressure on our musculoskeletal structure.
This results in what we all feel as aches and pains in number of musculoskeletal areas. Through COVID and home working alone, and society adopting a more sedentary lifestyle, there is now documented evidence of a significant increase in back related muscle and joint pain.
