Former London Irish rugby physio opens clinic in Cornwall



Comments (0)


A former senior physiotherapist with London Irish and the Cornwall Pirates rugby clubs is set to open a general practice clinic in Cornwall.


Mid Cornwall Physio is the brainchild of Torquil Dick.


The qualified and highly experienced sports physiotherapist who has worked in the Rugby Union Premiership and with Rugby League’s London Broncos, professional ski and snowboard teams in the French Alps and rugby and basketball teams in New Zealand, said he was keen to return to Cornwall where his roots are.


The 37-year-old known as Tog, who has had a spell as a physio with the cast of international musical hit, Riverdance, has now fitted out a state-of-the-art physiotherapy clinic at Ventonwyn Farm, Tregony, near Truro in Cornwall where his wife, Rebecca Tonks, runs the award-winning St Ewe Free Range Eggs.


He said: “I will be treating a wide variety of conditions but my experience in the world of sport has provided me with specialist expertise in sports injuries and injury prevention programmes as well as post operative rehabilitation.


“I waited until after our wedding to open the practice and will operate every day.


“Providing a quality physiotherapy practice includes making it a pleasurable and convenient experience so I’ll be happy to fit in around peoples’ working days and weekends.”
