About HOPP

Making sports physio accessible to everyone, everywhere.

HOPP was born from the will of two sports physios to offer their expertise to as many people as possible, wherever you are.

Our story

A frustration from the field, turned into a mission

We’re sports fans, and we know how much pain or an injury can turn everything upside down: a goal slipping away, a season cut short, confidence crumbling.

In clinic as much as on the field, working with athletes during competitions, we saw the same problem come up again and again: our expertise could only reach a limited number of people, those lucky enough to get an appointment.

We wanted to offer our expertise to as many people as possible, and make sports physio accessible to everyone, everywhere — not just those who can walk through a clinic door.

That’s why HOPP is more than a care programme: it’s a learning experience. We want to help you understand your injury, take charge of your own care, and reduce the risk of relapse.

Our mission

What we believe in

Four convictions that guide every decision, from designing an exercise to writing an explanation.

01

Accessible to everyone, everywhere

Our expertise shouldn’t be reserved for those lucky enough to get an appointment. It should be available wherever you are.

02

Understand, not just follow

HOPP is a learning experience. You understand what’s happening in your body, instead of blindly following instructions.

03

Avoiding relapse

Taking charge of your own care also means learning not to get hurt again. That’s the real goal behind every programme.

04

Sport, a shared passion

We’re sports fans before we’re physios. We know what an injury puts you through, because we’ve been through it too.

Good to know: HOPP is an injury information tool designed by sports physios. It doesn’t replace a doctor’s opinion.
