Morag Lunn is an Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner in Primary Care who graduated from Glasgow Caledonian University in 1999 and has specialised in musculoskeletal (MSK) physiotherapy since 2003.
Alongside her rehab role, she has worked with national rugby clubs and international hockey sides.
In 2019, Morag returned to the NHS as an Advanced Physiotherapy Practitioner working solely in Primary Care.
