Hi there!

I'm Steve Miller, a Sports Physical Therapist who loves working daily with Athletes and Sports Injuries. I have been working in physio for over a decade. During this time, I realized there is a real challenge to offering clinical placements in elite sports, so I decided to take my experience and share it with you through Grow Physio - a community where I share elite sports exposure through real-life experience. It's your chance to learn from someone who's been in the field for years.
