About us

About us

Our history

Originally set up by Robbie Rooney and Grant McClullich the clinic quickly established itself as having an excellent reputation for a patient focused approach to sports injury management. Furthermore, an excellent reputation in providing biomechanical assessments to improve the outcome for their patients.

In 2012 The clinic expanded to become a stand alone clinic with 4 treatment rooms. In addition to this an orthotic lab and no longer featured within the running shop.

In February 2024, The Treatment Hub in Hamilton has expanded to having 7 clinic rooms. As such, it is one of the biggest private clinics in Scotland. It also includes our orthotic manufacturing base with an on-site orthotic lab.

There are now 3 Physiotherapists, 4 Podiatrists, 6 Orthotists and 2 Orthotic technicians based in the Hamilton clinic.

The Treatment Hub became a centre of excellence for a number of clinicians. It now provides an expanded range of services including Podiatry/Chiropody, Physiotherapy, Biomechanics and Orthotics.

Our very own orthotic lab allows the Podiatrist and Orthotist full control of the manufacture of custom orthotics. This as is a service few clinics within Scotland are capable of delivering.

Our private orthotics clinics across Scotland

Over the last few years The Treatment Hub has become one of the largest networks of clinics of it's type in the UK. These dedicated Orthotic, biomechanics and MSK assessment clinics are available across Scotland. There are now clinics in Hamilton, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Ayr, Doune and Edinburgh.

At each of these clinics we have the latest technologies to undertake our biomechanical and MSK assessments. This includes video gait analysis, plantar pressure mapping, 3d scanning and Footscan technologies.

Our unique approach

The Treatment Hub and Sport Orthotics clinics are unique as our patients have access to both Podiatrists and Orthotists. We work collectively and recognise the value in having both professions working together for the benefit of our patients.

It is often the case that we would see patients jointly to use the unique skills each clinician has. Our clinics are unusual in the UK as most private podiatry or private orthotic clinics have Podiatrists or Orthotists working in isolation of each other.

On top of this, we have Physiotherapists, Sports Therapists and Orthopaedic surgeons that also work in our clinics. So we feel we are very well placed to manage any issues that come through our clinic doors.

What to Expect at The Treatment Hub

The ethos of our clinics has always remained the same. Quality and customer satisfaction mean everything! Every clinician involved in biomechanics & orthotics has come through the same post graduate mentoring programme which has proven extremely successful.

We undertake our own orthotics manufacture for a very good reason! We retain 100% control of all aspects of the manufacture process. As such, any adjustments for orthotics are undertaken on the spot and while you wait.

Equally, our one stop shop approach means clinicians from different disciplines including Orthotists, Physiotherapists, Podiatrists and Sports therpaists are all at hand and in the one place to deal with whatever problem comes through the doors

Our postgraduate mentoring programme

We actively recruit podiatry and orthotic undergraduate students on our own mentorship programme, teaching our unique orthotic manufacture methods and provide gradual clinical exposure.

This approach has been so successful that our original first 2 clinicians undergoing the mentorship programme went on to work as university lecturers on the undergraduate degree programme at Strathclyde University National centre for training in Prosthetics and Orthotics degree programme.
