Based in Overtown Wishaw Niam is a Chartered Physiotherapist who has over 20 years background in Professional Football and has worked in all 4 divisions in Scotland. In addition, he has been in fulltime private practice since 2015 dealing with various Musculoskeletal (MSK) and a variety of medical conditions. As a manual hands on physiotherapist using a holistic approach predominately specialising in sports medicine with an interest in maintaining and/or restoring functional movement I have been able to assist with patients with a variety of medical conditions.

By using a variety of techniques including a Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) Approach I have obtained a Certified Practitioner and Exercise Trainer’s award from the world renowned “The Prague School” under guidance of Prof. Pavel Kolar and his team of Certified Czech DNS Instructors. This has given him a greater understanding in how pain can occur in the body and therefore how to resolve it using a combination of techniques and exercise regimes from the Prague School resulting in a total body integrated approach in dealing with the neuromuscular system and how abnormal movement leads to pain.  

Coupled with the DNS Niam has expanded into Active Release Techniques (ART) and has participated in courses to maintain the status of an ART Provider. In addition, he is registered as a Barefoot Training Specialist (Levels 1 & 2) which also encompasses attending Barehand and Pelvic Balance courses.
