Welcome to MOVE Clinic.

At MOVE Clinic, our passion extends beyond our roles as physiotherapists and exercise physiologists—we are also climbers and adventurers at heart.

Over the past decade, we’ve had the pleasure of blending these worlds, resulting in a climbing-specific healthcare service dedicated to both managing climbing-related injuries and helping individuals achieve their dream goals, whether in the mountains or the gym.

Climbing is a sport and lifestyle with a rich history, yet it remains in its early stages of development in many ways.

When we founded MOVE Clinic in 2016, one of our core missions was to provide our climbing community with healthcare that is cutting-edge, evidence-based, and forward-thinking.

Over the past 10 years, we’ve pursued this direction, and it has been incredible to witness our climbing community thrive.

At MOVE Clinic, we celebrate your body’s potential. Together, we set meaningful goals, build your confidence, and support you on your journey to optimal health and performance.

Thank you for choosing MOVE Clinic.

We look forward to guiding you toward your dream routes, memorable adventures, and a healthy, sustainable climbing life.

Warm regards,

Lee Cossey
