Who we are

Welcome to INNERV8, where recovery isn’t just treatment, it’s a journey.

Guided by expertise. Rooted in compassion. Powered by understanding.

INNERV8 was founded by Nicki Finn — a physiotherapist with over 25 years on the front lines of elite sport, private practice, and London's major teaching hospitals. She saw a gap: people deserved more time, more expertise, more genuine care than they were getting. So she built it.

But INNERV8 was never about one person. It's a team — united by one mission: to truly understand your body, your needs, your goals, so we can guide you not just to recovery, but to how you get there and stay there.

Together, our team brings 55+ years of world-class experience across Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy, Sports Injury Rehabilitation, Neuro-Kinematics, Acupuncture, Barral Technique, and Paediatric Care.

Here, you're not a patient number — you're a partner in your own recovery. We believe nobody knows your body better than you. So we combine our expert ears and skilled hands with your insight, and build a treatment plan around you— empowering you to take real control of your health, wherever you're starting from.
