ABOUT

Welcome — I'm Dawn Nunes, an experienced physio in Sevenoaks, and running coach specialising in helping runners overcome injuries, improve performance, and return to running stronger than before.

I offer expert physiotherapy, running coaching, and comprehensive home physio in Kent and Sevenoaks, supporting athletes of all levels both online and in person.

With a Masters in Sports Physiotherapy and years of clinical and coaching experience, I provide tailored treatment, rehabilitation, and performance guidance designed specifically for runners and active individuals.

expert physiotherapy for runners in sevenoaks

As a dedicated physiotherapist and ultrarunner, I understand exactly what runners need—whether you’re managing an ongoing issue, recovering from an injury, or preparing for a big race.

My physiotherapy services include:

Injury assessment and treatment
Run-specific rehabilitation
Strength and conditioning guidance
Home physio visits in Sevenoaks and across Kent
Online physio consultations for flexible support

My approach combines clinical expertise with real-world running experience. I’ve completed the Arc of Attrition 100 miler, Ultra-Trail Cape Town 100 miler, and earned three Comrades Marathon medals—insights I bring directly into my rehab and coaching work, and with a marathon personal best of 3 hours 15 minutes, I understand what it takes both on the road and in the trails.

In 2025 I completed Tor des Geants 330km - one of the toughest ultra marathons in the world covering the circumference of the Aosta Valley in Italy - in 137 hours. I gained invaluable experience during this challenge that helps me with both my personal training, as well as when creating rehab and training programs for my patients.
