Meet the Active Health Team

Shannon Laverty

Chartered Physiotherapist / Sports Massage Therapist

Shannon is a Chartered Physiotherapist and Sports Massage Therapist at Active Health Clinic Glasgow, who loves working with sportspeople and active people of every level, whether they run at the weekend or play competitively. Alongside her clinic work, she looks after players at two semi-professional football teams, so she’s used to managing fresh injuries as well as longer-term problems, and to getting people back on the pitch.

She completed her Master of Physiotherapy at Queen Margaret University and is a qualified sports massage therapist too. She uses both in her treatment, pairing hands-on work with strength-based rehab so that people can return to their sport trusting the injured area again.

Lower-limb and running injuries are what she’s especially drawn to, and racquet-sport injuries are a growing interest. Shannon also carries out home visits for people who are struggling with mobility or confidence, helping them get steadier on their feet and back out into their community, and that’s a side of the job she really enjoys.

When she’s not working, you’ll find her in the gym, out running or hiking, on a paddle board or playing badminton, and she likes trying new sports such as padel.
