Sports Therapist & Founder of HGR LAB
I’m Jake, a Sports Therapist with over 5 years’ experience working across professional football and private practice, and I’ve always had a strong interest in helping people get back to doing what they love. My approach is simple — I want to understand the person behind the injury, not just treat the symptoms. At HGR LAB, I combine my experience in sport with a practical, evidence-based approach to rehabilitation, recovery and performance, helping each client build confidence, get stronger and return to what matters to them.

View on Google“Been dealing with Jake during my ACL injury and can honestly say he’s been nothing but amazing. He goes through everything in great detail, makes sure I understand everything and is also great to be around. I’ve dealt with a lot of physios and he’s up there with the best!”
“I suffered a knee injury following a period of intense training two weeks before the Hyrox world championships where, at the age of 63, I was aiming to do back-to-back races. Jake was professional, friendly and extremely thorough in his examination. He diagnosed the problem and gave me a clear plan that included stretches, icing and over-the-counter medication. Jake sent me a report, kept in touch and gave me the confidence that my injury would settle. The result being I became world champion with my partner in my second race. Jake’s background in high level sports injuries is perfectly aligned to fitness racing and I have no hesitation in recommending him.”
“I came to see Jake after seeing a couple of physios for some issues I’d been having for a long time with my hamstring that weren’t improving and I was unable to run. Jake did a thorough assessment of my movement and hamstring and diagnosed the problem, giving me a full breakdown of why the injury may have happened. He explained to me how the rehab process worked and what would progress over time, which I appreciated as it meant I knew what stage I was at and which helped with my patience. Within a few weeks I was back running and my hamstring strength has excelled. I fully trust Jake and would recommend him as he is very knowledgeable, he keeps communication up with his clients between sessions so you’re not left unsure!”
“After having a calf issue that had put a stop to me being able to run I was recommended to book in to see Jake. After a thorough assessment of my calf and other areas that could have been affecting this, Jake quickly identified what the issue was and then created a rehab programme for me to strengthen my calf and mobilise other areas. What I really found great was Jake would communicate with me daily/weekly on how the progress was going and this also helped me stay accountable. Jake would also update the programme as I was progressing. He had me back up and running within a couple of weeks and able to compete in a Hyrox which I didn’t feel was going to be possible before seeing Jake.”
