Steven Cockburn
Founder & Lead Physiotherapist
After working in the NHS & privately, I took the leap and opened my own clinic Perform Health Co so I could provide a space that focused on injury, rehab & performance.
Patient’s are at the centre of what I love to do.
✓ HCPC registered Physiotherapist (HCPC PH134754)
✓ Fully qualified personal trainer
✓ Level 5 sports massage therapist
✓ Acupuncture accredited
✓ Shockwave therapy treatment
I have over 14 years of experience bridging the gap between clinical rehabilitation and high-performance strength and conditioning.
My qualifications and experience means your care doesn’t stop when you outgrow early stage rehabilitation. Whether you are recovering from an acute injury, managing chronic discomfort, or training for a marathon, I combine expert clinical assessment skills with highly targeted strength, movement, and conditioning strategies to get you back to peak performance and keep you there.
Driven by a passion for evidence-based practice and functional longevity, I design comprehensive, customised care pathways that empower clients to move without restriction, build robust physical resilience, and achieve their ultimate health & fitness goals.
“My passion is getting clients of all ages and abilities stronger and living pain-free and helping incorporate health and fitness into their daily life. Often small changes and new habits can create huge lasting results.
I love working together with clients who want to remain active, particularly when change previously seemed so challenging. I think we’ve created a relaxing and welcoming clinic space in the heart of Bruntsfield that doesn’t feel too clinical and intimidating”.

My Approach
I’m passionate about working with clients of all abilities and backgrounds to bridge the gap between injury rehabilitation and peak performance. Whether you’re recovering from a setback or looking to improve your everyday movement, my goal is to help you move without fear and get back to doing what you love.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked with a wide range of people, from dedicated runners and busy office workers to active retirees who want to stay mobile and strong. I take genuine pride in helping clients rebuild their confidence through tailored rehabilitation, set clear and meaningful goals, and achieve them.
No two lifestyles are the same, which is why I focus on practical and realistic solutions. Together, we will:
✓ Build strength & conditioning
✓ Improve mobility & postural pain
✓ Make positive lifestyle changes
✓ Return from injury & reduce limitations
✓ Feel confident in every day movements
Ultimately, I want every client to leave the clinic feeling stronger, fitter and more confident in how they move.
Simple Lifestyle Changes
From finding daily mobility & movement routines to learning to move fearlessly - I can help you make small changes than bring lasting results. Setting goals & intentions can bring you closer to where you want to be without being overwhelmed with feeling like “I know I should be…”
Learn to Find Balance
Often clients I meet find the balance between exercise and daily life hard to juggle or find the time. Learning to find the balance is something we can work on together whilst still achieving your goals. Spending 5-10mins each day on mobility movements will always out-perform 1 × 60mins yoga or pilates per week. I help clients just like you understand what your body needs to stay pain-free.
Having an Expert in Your Corner
Many people struggle with accountability, exercise know how and what plan would work best for them. I have over 14 years of experience helping clients work past limiting beliefs, move past chronic injuries and set goals they wouldn’t have otherwise dared to set. Having someone with a background in fitness, Physio & rehab means I can help you achieve your true health & fitness potential.
