Sam Brennan

A physiotherapist with over 10 years of experience, Sam has always been very passionate about personal fitness and was involved in competitive rugby until his late 20s. Like many amateur athletes, his training and recovery was far from optimal. This, combined with several injuries, led to a keen interest in learning how to manage injuries and himself better. He qualified as a sports therapist and worked as a personal trainer before eventually progressing into a MSc in Physiotherapy. Since moving to Singapore in 2015, he has been working in private practice as a Musculoskeletal Specialist. He has also been heavily involved in the rugby scene as a pitchside physio, for both local clubs and the Singapore national team, as their head physio. 

He is a strong advocate of client empowerment and believes that the “education with exercise” prescription is key to achieving successful outcomes.

With such a powerful duo, injuries are better managed, total body conditioning can be progressed, and the potential risk of future injuries can be reduced. Given his personal experience with pain, he knows how increased pain can lead to increased fear. His stance is not to just treat the pain - but to find the root cause of the pain so he can help clients’ rebuild their confidence through movement adaptation. By feeling stronger and moving better, you’ll ultimately feel better!

As the co-founder of Strength Clinic Academy, Sam is extremely honoured that his experiences and profession allow him to help others recover from pain or injury. He’s also incredibly excited about the future plans for SCA and can’t wait to increase the level of service to both current and new clients.
