Sports Science is a discipline that studies how the healthy body moves and works to create optimal motion. Exercise Physiology utilises exercise in the treatment and management of chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular diseases and depression.
At Ferry Rd Physio we are very lucky to have Paulo Barroso who has 23 years of experience working in this field in Brazil. He has worked with a huge variety of people, from those getting on top of their chronic diseases, to elite athletes competing at Olympic level!
Services:

With a thorough understanding of the body’s anatomy, physiology, biology and chemistry, Paulo works to treat a range of chronic diseases through a personalised, specific exercise plan. This plan is created with an understanding of the demands of an individual’s lifestyle to ensure maximum compliance and ease of adherence. The better the plan fits one’s lifestyle, needs, preferences and personalities, the more likely it will be successful long term.
