Emma Park
Emma is a third‑generation physiotherapist, proudly following in the footsteps of her mother and grandmother. She graduated with a First-Class BSc (Hons) in Physiotherapy from the University of Liverpool in 2010 and has since gained 15 years of experience treating sports injuries and joint pain across sports teams, military personnel, and the wider public in both private and public healthcare settings.
She began her career in the NHS in Merseyside, spending three years working across all core areas of physiotherapy before moving to New Zealand to specialise in musculoskeletal pain and injury. During her time in Auckland, Emma worked in a combined Physiotherapy and Pilates clinic, delivering both mat and reformer Pilates alongside physiotherapy treatment for work‑related and sports injuries.
In 2015, Emma returned to England to take up a senior physiotherapy role within the Ministry of Defence, treating injured military personnel. She later joined a busy NHS musculoskeletal outpatients department, managing a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions within the local community.
In 2019, Emma moved back home to Helen’s Bay, Northern Ireland, to raise her family. She now works as an Advanced Practice Physiotherapist in the Fracture Clinic at the Royal Victoria Hospital, providing acute care and rehabilitation for patients following fractures, dislocations, and tendon ruptures. She has a particular clinical interest in Achilles tendon ruptures and rehabilitation following injury.
Get to know me….
At the weekend I enjoy meeting up with friends for a Park run in Crawfordsburn Country Park, or a sea dip on Helen’s Bay beach. However, my favourite thing to do is spend time with Charlie and our 2 gorgeous boys – Joseph and Rory.
I used to say my proudest achievement was training and running the Liverpool Marathon in 2012. However, my proudest achievement is now being “mum” to my two awesome boys.
