Affordable Physiotherapy is a well established Physiotherapy clinic located in Herne Bay. George Johnson, a Chartered Physiotherapist, believes that Physiotherapy/Injury treatment should be available to all, not just the rich or elite sportsperson. With that in mind he will keep his prices as low as possible for as long as possible. George started his career in sports medicine as a sports massage therapist, but soon realized that massage alone cannot affect injuries in any way, (in fact if applied at the wrong time or a wrong technique is used it can be harmful and actually slow down the healing proceses).   It has a small role to play, but must be combined with other therapies such as ultra-sound, progressive re-hab exercises and more to be effective. He then went on to train   as a physiotherapist   at the Academy of Sports Therapy (accredited by Middlesex University) and more importantly The Football Association Medical School, based at Lillishall.

Following this he took up the post of first team physiotherapist at Gillingham Football Club,   a professional team, then playing in the English Championship. This took him to almost every football ground in the league, meeting many famous footballers past and present.

After leaving football, George became the England Hardball Roller Hockey Team Physiotherapist/Fitness coach. He traveled to China, all over Europe   and the USA with them on a very successful World Cup campaign.

He now runs a Physiotherapy/Sports injury clinic in Herne Bay and is working in a part time role at Margate FC with Terry Yorath and Neville Southhall as well as running the clinic.

George Johnson is a chartered Physiotherapist registered with the Health Professions council. He is also a member of the Organisation of Chartered Physiotherapist in Private Practice, is a UK Athlectics recommended practioner and has a Police Certificate of Enhanced Disclosure.

George has vast experience in treating all kinds of injuries and musculoskeletal conditions following his time as First Team Physiotherapist for Gillingham Football Club and the England Hardball Hockey Team.

Committed to providing the highest level of care, George provides fast and accurate diagnosis of conditions to enable the best treatment of the problem and its underlying cause. George also believes in education of the patient, giving them knowledge of their problem and how they can help themselves.

George has also given several lectures on Sports injuries to organisations such as the Kent Football Referee Association, NAKMAS (National Association of Karate and Martial Arts Schools) and many more local Sports clubs and written Articles for magazines such as Skate UK.
