Physiotherapy for Viewpark and Tannochside

Viewpark has no railway station of its own and most of its buses point towards Glasgow or Motherwell, so when people here look for a physio they usually think about where they can drive easily. Coatbridge is a good answer. Chapman Physiotherapy & Performance is at 10 Cameron Street, and from Old Edinburgh Road it is a straightforward run up the Bellshill bypass.

Kieran Chapman runs the clinic. He is an HCPC registered physiotherapist whose experience covers MSK physiotherapy, orthopaedics, neurological physiotherapy and cardiac rehab, which suits the wide mix of problems a community like Viewpark brings: sports knocks, work strain, arthritic joints, recovery after surgery and more.

Appointments are always one to one and last 45 minutes. You pick your slot on the online booking page, which shows live availability with evening and Saturday options, and a GP referral is not needed. First time patients pay a deposit online that is knocked off the price and fill in a short consultation form; after that you simply pay at each visit by card or cash.

Viewpark

Gardens, glens and a strong sporting streak in Viewpark

This is the community that gave Scottish football Jimmy Johnstone, remembered in a memorial garden on Old Edinburgh Road, and John Robertson of Nottingham Forest fame. The sporting tradition carries on with Thorniewood United, the junior club at Robertson Park, amateur sides Viewpark United and Calderbraes, Viewpark Boxing Club at the Burnhead Community Centre, and Burnhead Bowling Club. Boxing and football in particular put a lot of strain on shoulders, wrists, hips and knees, and a niggle ignored through a season can turn into something more stubborn.

For gentler exercise, Viewpark Gardens has a park, allotments and a walled flower garden in the old grounds of Viewpark House, and the woodland of Viewpark Glen offers paths through the trees. Gala Day Park sits behind the shops at Market Place. Many residents work locally at Righead Industrial Estate, Tannochside Business Park or Strathclyde Business Park, or commute via the M74 and M8, so lifting at work and long periods in the car or at a desk are frequent reasons for back and neck pain.

Areas covered

Tannochside
Birkenshaw
Bellziehill
Calderbraes
Fallside

Viewpark takes in Tannochside, where most of the newer housing has gone up on former industrial land, along with Birkenshaw, Bellziehill, Calderbraes and Fallside, the last of which once had its own station. All of these sit between Uddingston and Bellshill, and the A725 bypass on their eastern edge is the quickest way north to Coatbridge.

Treatment

What Kieran can help with

Injury assessment

The first session is an injury assessment. Kieran listens to your history, asks what you need your body to do, whether that is boxing training, a shift at the business park or digging an allotment, and examines the problem area so he can explain what is going on.

Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation brings together hands-on treatment and a home exercise plan that builds week by week. The exercises are stored in your own online account, with instructions you can check whenever you need a reminder.

More about rehabilitation →

Deep tissue and sports massage

Deep tissue massage can loosen muscles that have tightened from lifting or sitting, and sports massage helps footballers and boxers between sessions. Kieran fits the depth and pace of the massage to you.

Acupuncture, cupping and taping

Acupuncture is offered where Kieran feels it may help, as are cupping and taping. Taping is often used to support a wrist, ankle or knee while you get back to training.

Questions

Coming from Viewpark

Is there a bus from Viewpark to the clinic?

Not directly. The buses through Viewpark head towards Glasgow and Motherwell, so you would need to change. Most people find driving up the A725 much easier.

Does Kieran treat boxing injuries?

He works with sports and musculoskeletal injuries of all kinds, including the shoulder, wrist and neck problems that are common in boxing. After assessing you he will put together a plan suited to your training.

Is physiotherapy worth trying for an arthritic knee?

Physiotherapy is commonly used to help people with arthritic joints stay active, usually through strengthening, mobility work and advice on managing activity. Kieran will assess your knee and talk through realistic goals with you.

Are weekend appointments available?

Saturday appointments are available alongside evenings. The booking page shows live availability, so you can see what is free before you commit.
