About Us | Pro-active Physiotherapy
Marianne Alexander
Company Director & Chartered Physiotherapist
Pro-Active Physiotherapy Troon & Stewarton
Our dedicated Senior Physiotherapist Marianne has over 10 years experience working in private practice. This has provided her with a wealth of knowledge in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions, and the passion to establish Pro-Active Physiotherapy in 2022. She has a strong focus on helping individuals move better, feel stronger and return to activities that matter most to them.
She gained her first degree at Dundee University in Sports Biomedicine (BSc), followed up with a Master's Degree in Physiotherapy (MSc) at Queen Elizabeth University in Edinburgh. In her early career Marianne worked in the NHS rotating through different specialties such as neurological, surgical and intensive care wards, as well as in the community. Marianne quickly specialised in MSK Physiotherapy and transitioned into private practice, where she has gained extensive experience in the most up to date treatment of musculoskeletal conditions. Marianne has a patient-centred approach, combining hands-on treatment with tailored rehabilitation plans.
She has developed a strong interest in the rehabilitation of both joint and muscular injuries, including back and neck pain. Having worked with rugby teams, Marianne has a keen interest in the assessment and treatment of sporting injuries, spurred on by her own personal sporting interests. She is also an APPI-trained Pilates instructor, providing 1:1 sessions.
Marianne enjoys spending time with her young family and keeping active through her own hobbies. She is a keen runner and has challenged herself to marathons and half marathons. More recently, she has developed an interest in Hyrox and likes to compete for fun. Consequently, she can appreciate the toll training takes on your body, mind, and the importance of staying injury-free in the run up to these events.
