Expert Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Services
Appointments at your home, work or gym across Edinburgh
Kasia Zielina
Consultant Sports and Performance Physiotherapist Founder of Vital Performance Management
Now based in Edinburgh, for over 20 years I have treated patients with simple and complex sports injuries, musculoskeletal conditions and multi-traumas; working with Olympians, Professional and Amateur Athletes, and Dancers.
My expertise is drawn from the elite sports, health and fitness industry, and I use the very latest Sport Physiotherapy and Performance knowledge, and up-to-date treatments.
I offer face to face appointments at your home, office or gym across Edinburgh, or online consultation wherever you are in the world.
My aim is to take care of your injury or pain, but also your health, wellness and performance. You set up a goal, I am here to support your body and mind through the journey!
My holistic approach goes far beyond standard physiotherapy and looks at all aspects of your health, including:
understanding your body type
the right exercise for you
diet, sleep, recovery or genetic testing (Project You)
I offer:
Sports injury physiotherapy and musculoskeletal physiotherapy
Pre and post-natal advice and treatments (including pregnancy-related pains and safe return to exercise postpartum)
Menopause coaching (supporting women in implementing habits to better manage menopause symptoms)
These services are offered as personalised one-to-one sessions based on your needs, delivered in person or online. I am also open to participating in joint sessions with other medical professionals or your exercise trainers.
Patients with co-existing medical conditions (e.g. chronic fatigue, osteoporosis, post breast cancer) or mental mental health issues (e.g. depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD) are also very welcome.

Client testimonial
“I have been referred to Kasia who is an amazing physiotherapist. She uses different techniques to improve my knee condition. I had an accident 4 years ago and have been struggling to go back to a normal life since.
I have seen 3 different physiotherapists and have never come across someone as talented as Kasia. She gives me clear practical exercises every week and has managed to make me progress and go back to activities I thought I would never be able to do again.”
