SEO for physiotherapists delivered by experts
The physical therapy space is competitive; your clinic will be up against other local physios, as well as other musculoskeletal practitioners, such as chiropractors, osteopaths, and massage therapists. Being heard above others in your field is crucial. If you’re not prioritising appearing above these competitors in Google searches, it’s time to invest in search engine optimisation (SEO) for your physiotherapy business.
SEO is what can make your website appear high on results pages for users searching for terms relevant to your clinic. It bakes these terms into your website, and optimises it to improve user experience as well as Google rankings. Through careful on-page and technical optimisation, link building, local SEO, and content writing, your site can be seen by more people. 427 can make that happen.
At 427, we handle SEO for physios, from solo practitioners to larger clinics. This means that we can tailor our approach to you, and leave you to provide your crucial service to those in pain, whilst we direct a captive audience to your website.

Why SEO is important for physiotherapists
Competition for healthcare services is fierce in any area, so when you couple this with the unlikelihood of potential patients getting past the first three Google results that they’re presented with, it’s even more important to make sure you’re occupying the top spots under relevant key terms.
With patients only seeking physios when they’re ready to invest in their health and wellbeing, getting your SEO right means that search becomes a major way to generate business.
Attracts local customers
The kinds of users you’re looking to appeal to are likely ones that are close to where you operate; appearing for search terms like ‘physiotherapists near me’ should be a huge part of your SEO strategy. Local SEO sniffs out the local terms relevant to what you offer, capturing that local audience who are already in the market for your physiotherapy services.
Building trust and authority
As a practitioner easing pain and treating or preventing injuries, there’s a huge amount of trust required from the individuals that use your services. Building this can start as soon as users land on your website, which means creating content that demonstrates that you know your stuff, provides valuable advice, and anticipates any questions they have.
This approach also puts you in Google’s good books; it prioritises authoritative websites that are genuinely helpful to the users. This is particularly important within healthcare, which attracts an extra level of scrutiny from search engines.
Increases bookings
Ultimately, SEO can increase the number of users enquiring after your physiotherapy services, both through the way your website is found, and how it operates once a user is on it. When your site is seen above the competition, your content demonstrates your expertise. Good page loading speeds, navigation, and internal linking ensures a user need look no further for their physiotherapy.
