About Sean Bushby

Sean Bushby is a physiotherapist and Director of The Physio Studio, with more than 25 years of experience in musculoskeletal and sports physiotherapy. He joined the practice in 2008 and became co-director in 2010, playing a central role in shaping the clinic it is today. A Level 4 DMA Clinical Pilates Physiotherapist, Sean is also Head Physiotherapist for Cumberland United Soccer Club and has worked with Goodwood Saints Football Club.

Sean works with soccer players, active adults and people with persistent pain who want to move better, reduce pain and build long-term strength. He also supports clients recovering from workplace and motor vehicle injuries, including functional assessments and return-to-work planning.

His approach is integrated and movement-based, combining hands-on treatment with structured exercise and Clinical Pilates rehabilitation to address the underlying drivers of pain and dysfunction. Where appropriate, Sean also uses dry needling and acupuncture to help with pain management and muscle function. A former SA Premier League soccer player, he understands the physical demands of sport and remains involved in the local soccer community through Cumberland United and junior coaching.
