Meet our New Physiotherapist, Alice!

We’re excited to welcome our newest member of the KJP team, Alice Rose!

Born in Bristol, Alice graduated from the University of Brighton in 2009. After finishing her studies, she returned to her hometown and landed her first physiotherapy job with the NHS in the community. Throughout her career, she has dived into various areas of physiotherapy. In her last 4 years within the NHS, Alice was a senior physiotherapist providing rehabilitation to older adults in their own homes.
In 2016, Alice decided to expand her knowledge by pursuing a Master’s in Clinical Health Research, focusing her dissertation on goal setting and patient-centred care. Everything changed in 2019 when she welcomed her first daughter. After her own experience with postpartum recovery, Alice felt inspired to specialise in Women’s Health. She wanted to understand the root causes of the symptoms she faced after childbirth. That’s when she discovered Women’s Health physiotherapist Sarah Duvall and the fantastic courses offered by Core Exercise Solutions. Just six months later, she earned her certification as a Pregnancy and Postpartum Exercise Specialist! Excited and empowered, Alice set out to help women stay active during pregnancy and smoothly transition back to their favourite activities after giving birth.
When her husband got stationed in Washington, D.C., Alice eagerly embraced the years from 2021 to 2025, helping pregnant and postpartum women reach their personal goals. Many of her patients initially felt too nervous to talk to their doctors or pelvic floor specialists about their symptoms, but Alice was there to support them. Through her guidance on breathing techniques, posture, and muscle imbalances, she began to see significant improvements.
In her downtime, Alice enjoys exercising, staying up-to-date on the latest physiotherapy research, and having fun with her two lovely daughters.

 

Alice will be joining us from September 2nd and will be offering MSK, Women’s Health, and DOMI appointments. 

To book an appointment with Alice, please call us on (0117) 330 6820 or book online through our website.

In Loving Memory

It is with great sadness that we write to share the heartbreaking news of the sudden passing of Keith James, our beloved physiotherapist and friend.

Keith was more than just the founder and heart of this clinic; he was an incredible man whose warmth, positive energy, and passion touched everyone who had the privilege of knowing him. His patients were not just appointments but part of his extended family. Whether through his infectious smile, his boundless dedication, or the way he truly listened and cared, Keith made a lasting impact on countless lives.

 

 

As we face this enormous loss, our thoughts and deepest love are with Heather, Keith’s beloved wife, and his daughters, whom he spoke often and adored beyond measure. We know that the coming days and weeks will be incredibly challenging for them, and we are committed to supporting them as a clinic and as a community.

 

 

 

He was a brilliant physiotherapist with thumbs of steel, but what truly set Keith apart was his Liverpudlian charm, quick wit, and ability to make anyone feel instantly at ease. His cheeky humour and natural ability to lift spirits brought an atmosphere that will be deeply missed in the clinic.

Keith’s work was his life’s passion, he built this practice over 30 years with love, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to helping others heal and thrive. We are devastated by his loss but incredibly proud to continue the legacy he leaves behind.

 

 

The clinic has reopened and is running. The team is dedicated and committed to ensuring the best support and care, just as Keith would have wanted.

If you would like to leave or share a message of condolence, you are welcome to pop into the practice and write in our memory book, or you can use this link to Keith’s Tribute page.

Thank you for your kindness, patience, and support during this time.

With heartfelt gratitude,

The Keith James Team

Meet our new Physiotherapist Wylie!

We’re pleased to welcome our newest member of the KJP team, Wylie Ball!

Born in Bristol, Wylie graduated from the University of Bath in 2015 with a Sports and Social Science degree. Following this he worked in the Hounslow and Richmond NHS trust, where his passion for physiotherapy grew after spending 2 years in charge of running group and individual rehabilitation exercise programs. Subsequently, Wylie moved back to Bristol in 2017 to study Physiotherapy at the University of the West of England, to later graduate in 2020.

Since then, Wylie has gained valuable experience working in the private sector as an associate and senior MSK physiotherapist. Whilst his main passion is rehabilitating sporting injuries, Wylie equally enjoys helping all those reach their full physical potential daily.

Wylie maintains that exercise is fundamental to happier and healthier living. This is why in his spare time, you would often find him partaking in cross-fit, running, and padel, to name a few. He enjoys playing rounds of golf with friends and family, going on dog walks and hiking adventures with his partner. He has completed a few feats in his time, some of which include swimming Windemere One Way (11 miles) in 2019 and a relay channel swim in 2017.

He will be based at our Coldharbour Road clinic on Tuesdays and Fridays.

If you would like to book an appointment with Wylie, give us a call on (0117) 330 6820 or book online on our website.
