The Team

I am a husband, dad and musculoskeletal physiotherapist.

Following my years of experience working in elite sport, the NHS and private clinics throughout the UK, I felt the time was right to open Monkman Physiotherapy; where the patient’s goals are the priority and I have the freedom to use my bespoke skills to deliver high quality services.

I have a passion for well-being and exercise: rugby, running, cycling and triathlon being the main focuses. Once qualified as a physiotherapist, I used this passion to inform my practice and assist my patients with their recovery.

As a keen family man, I love to spend time with my wife and getting into the outdoors where my children are at their happiest. Exercise and activity keep me focused; whether cycling in the Yorkshire Dales, running on the moors or play-fighting (always injury free!!) with my three boys.

Before qualifying as a physiotherapist, he worked as a strength and conditioning coach for over 10 years in professional and elite sport, including roles with Leeds Rhinos, England Netball, professional tennis, and Team GB athletes preparing for the London 2012 Olympic Games.

His academic background includes degrees in: BSc Sport and Exercise Science, MSc Biomechanics, MSc Physiotherapy (pre-reg) and MSc Rehabilitation Studies, which support his expertise in human movement, injury management, and return-to-sport rehabilitation. His main interests include hip, knee, and ankle injuries, ACL rehabilitation and running-related conditions.

Outside work, Justin is an outdoor enthusiast, plays padel and he enjoys skiing whenever possible, often spending his spare time in the Yorkshire Dales or the Lake District.
