Our patients are at the heart of what we do and we want you to be in control of your care. To us, that means you can choose the consultant you want to see, and when you want. They'll be with you every step of the way.

All of our consultants are of the highest calibre and benefit from working in our modern, well-equipped hospitals.

Our consultants have high standards to meet, often holding specialist NHS posts and delivering expertise in complex sub-specialty surgeries. Many of our consultants have international reputations for their research in their specialised field.

Mery Zanutto is a leading light in the field of body conditioning and rehabilitation.

With a passion for the three-dimensional nature of body movement, joint kinetics and athletic performance, Mery’s unique therapy programme is rooted in medical experience gained over a long period of time.

A trained Rehabilitation Stott Pilates® instructor and fully certified Garuda® teacher and rehabilitation specialist, Mery holds a degree in Healthcare Sciences (B.Sc.) and is registered with the Healthcare Professional Council (HPC).

With over 20 years experience as a surgical practitioner in orthopaedics and trauma, Mery has firsthand experience of the treatment and rehabilitation of injuries to the shoulder, knee, hip, spine, foot and ankle.  This has given her a unique insight into conditions of the joints and soft tissues, their reconstruction and rehabilitation post injury.

Mery’s tailored therapy programmes recognise that movement control and body kinetics are vital in injury prevention and athletic conditioning. Based on her specialist knowledge and experience, her therapy programmes can help maximise athletic performance and greatly benefit those with injuries, joint problems and muscle pain. 

Please note that this service is offered at Perform Southampton 

You will have a formal consultation with a healthcare professional. During this time you will be able to explain your medical history, symptoms and raise any concerns that you might have.

We will also discuss with you whether any further diagnostic tests, such as scans or blood tests, are needed. Any additional costs will be discussed before further tests are carried out.

Each client is first assessed using a recognised Performance Matrix technique, which identifies movement patterns associated with injury, or muscle and soft tissues stiffness.

Using this data, a bespoke programme is then created and administered on a one-to-one basis by Mery, in the Perform Studio. Supporting exercises are also suggested for the client to continue at home.

For clients requiring onward referral or additional treatment, Mery’s close links with the Perform Studio provide access to multidisciplinary experts. Plus the use of the fantastic range of facilities available at Spire, which include a hydrotherapy pool.

Therapies are performed under Mery’s direct supervision and involve muscle and soft tissue stretching and exercising in very specific directions and modalities, emphasising the three-dimensional nature of movement and coordination.
