Flow with the Current of the Water
Be like a river that flows with the current of the water. Whatever obstacle you encounter, you'll find a way to flow around it.
Senior Physiotherapist & Advanced Practitioner (BSc, CSP, HCPC)
Suzanne Summerton is a powerhouse of musculoskeletal rehabilitation. Trained in the same cutting-edge methods as Peter Hartley, she brings over two decades of clinical excellence to every patient she treats. Trusted by patients, professionals, and clinicians alike — because Suzanne believes in harnessing the body’s innate ability to heal when guided by expert care, precision techniques, and thoughtful treatment.
Suzanne’s early career began in the NHS across multiple Yorkshire trusts, focusing on pain management, orthopaedic care, and neurological recovery. She has since grown into an Advanced Practitioner, combining her core physiotherapy expertise with a holistic toolkit: Physiotherapy-led Pilates, Reiki, and certified Life Coaching. Suzanne’s approach is about empowerment — not only to recover, but to live stronger, more balanced, and more resilient.
Outside the clinic, Suzanne is passionate about outdoor and water sports — paddle boarding, wild swimming, and body boarding — which keep her grounded and fit. She also leads and coaches in the community as part of Mother Runner, encouraging women of all fitness levels to find confidence through running.
At home she’s a proud wife and mum of two, inspired daily by her family’s energy and competitiveness. Suzanne embraces life’s challenges — whether that’s a tricky patient case, a wild swim in cold water, or a running route — with curiosity, warmth, and unwavering commitment to helping people move better and live better.
Member of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy and the Health and Care Professions Council.
