IAN
MCKENZIE

Ian Mackenzie LLB BSc PgDip MSMA is a highly skilled and fully insured Level 4 Sports Therapist with a deep passion for helping individuals achieve their fitness and wellness goals. After an illustrious 16-year career in trade finance, where he served as a managing partner, Ian decided to pivot towards a more fulfilling path. This change was inspired by his personal five-year battle with cancer, which ignited a desire to make a tangible difference in people's lives through the power of therapeutic care and fitness.​

Where it began

Ian's journey in fitness began long before his professional shift. As a dedicated marathon runner and seasoned bodybuilder, he understands the physical and mental demands of rigorous training. This personal experience equips him with a unique insight into the needs of his clients, ranging from injury rehabilitation to essential maintenance for physically active individuals. In addition to working with athletes, Ian has a special interest in assisting individuals who lead sedentary lifestyles, particularly those who spend long hours sitting in an office environment. He understand the unique challenges and bodily damage that can arise from prolonged inactivity, such as musculoskeletal issues, poor posture, and chronic pain. His approach is tailored to address these specific concerns, incorporating targeted therapeutic techniques and personalised exercise plans to alleviate discomfort and promote overall well-being. By focusing on preventative care and rehabilitation, his aim is to help non-active individuals improve their quality of life and reduce the risks associated with a sedentary lifestyle.

Comprehensive range of treatments

Ian places a strong emphasis on personalised treatment plans and client education to ensure optimal recovery and performance enhancement for everyone. Understanding that each individual has unique needs and goals, he will tailor his approach to address specific injuries, conditions, and aspirations, creating customised rehabilitation programs that foster rapid and effective healing. Additionally. This comprehensive, client-centered strategy not only facilitates immediate improvements but also promotes long-term health and wellbeing.
