Massage Therapist, Sports Therapist & Fitness Coach
Qualifications: HND Sports & Fitness Therapy, BSc. (Hons) Sports Rehabilitation student
Specialism: Sports & Therapeutic Massage, Soft Tissue Release & Fitness Coaching
Filip brings a quiet dedication to everything he does – kind, organised, and genuinely committed to the quality of his work in a way that his patients and class participants notice and appreciate. As a sports therapist and fitness coach at Prime, he combines hands-on sports massage therapy with coached strength and fitness sessions, giving him a practical, well-rounded understanding of how the body moves, recovers, and performs.
His massage therapy background spans rugby, American football, hockey, and endurance events, including national-level rugby and post-event marathon recovery – and that breadth of experience across different sports and physical demands makes him a versatile and instinctive practitioner. His clinical background includes soft tissue therapy and injury recovery support gained through college injury clinics, sports team placements, and private practice.
Alongside his therapy work, Filip coaches strength and fitness classes in our Balerno clinic with a strong focus on technique, progressive loading, and safe movement – creating sessions that are as carefully considered as his hands-on work, and equally popular with the people who attend them.
Originally from the Czech Republic, Filip is a football fan who enjoys spending time with his dog.
