About Your Therapist

Hi, my name is Susie (Sutasinee). I am an HCPC registered physiotherapist (PH 128759) with over 20 years of clinical experience. I began my physiotherapy career at the internationally recognised Chiva-Som Health Resort in Hua Hin, Thailand, where I developed a strong foundation in combining deep tissue massage with evidence-based physiotherapy.
Before moving to Cupar, Fife in July 2021, I worked as a Senior Physiotherapist at Medident Clinic in Muscat, Oman, a well-established medical centre. Alongside clinical work, I treated athletes at Muscat Rugby Football Club, gaining extensive experience in sports injuries, rehabilitation and performance recovery.
My approach is built on understanding the root cause of pain, not simply treating the painful area. Firm, effective pressure is used where appropriate, but safety always comes first. Some muscles and joints should never be overstretched or overworked, and every treatment is adapted to the individual.

Combined Physiotherapy and Deep Tissue Massage Approach

Deep tissue massage is integrated with physiotherapy assessment to ensure treatments are both effective and safe. This combined approach allows better outcomes for people suffering from back, neck, hip and shoulder pain, as well as muscle tightness, joint restrictions and sports-related conditions.
We also use gentle but targeted TMJ massage to help clients experiencing jaw pain, tension headaches and teeth clenching or grinding. In addition to pain management and rehabilitation, many clients attend for general muscle maintenance, relaxation and injury prevention.
Physiotherapy and massage services are provided in Cupar, Fife, with appointments available through online booking.
