Mr Richard Beak

Mr Richard Beak works with musculoskeletal presentations, with a particular focus on running-related injuries and performance, tendon rehabilitation such as Achilles, patellar and gluteal tendinopathies, and persistent or long-standing pain. He is especially suited to runners, active people who want to understand their injury, and people with recurrent pain who value a collaborative approach.

Richard blends evidence-informed rehabilitation with coaching principles, drawing on his England Athletics running and athletics coaching certification. His work places emphasis on clear explanation, strength-based rehabilitation tailored to individual goals, and support with training load, recovery and self-management.

He is a Senior Physiotherapist and Clinical Development Lead at Southampton Physio, HCPC registered and a CSP member. His own experience of sporting injuries and chronic fatigue informs a calm, thoughtful approach to helping people understand what is happening in their body.
