Frequently Asked Questions

The next chapter in the Therapy Live journey: a hybrid MSK congress delivered by Physio First and Physio Matters in partnership. The live room is at the heart of the event: hundreds of clinicians gathering for main-stage debate, focused workshops, networking and exhibition, with the main-stage conversation streamed online to thousands more.

Friday 23 and Saturday 24 April 2027 at The Lowry Hotel, Manchester (M3 5LH).

Both. The full Therapy Live experience is in person; the online stream covers the main stage for those who can't make it to Manchester.

Clinicians working in MSK care who want to think harder, practise better and help move the profession forward: physiotherapists, osteopaths, chiropractors, sports therapists, rehab professionals, advanced practitioners, service leads, clinic owners, educators and researchers.

Main-room sessions on the defining questions in MSK care (diagnostic specificity, pain, AI and technology, OA and ageing, modern spinal care, tendinopathy and advanced practice), with focused workshops in The Rehab Room, The Hands-On Hub, Business Class and Tech Track.

Short, sharp and discussion-led. A moderator sets the scene, three speakers each offer a brief take, and the rest of the session is panel discussion, audience questions and Slido contributions from the room. Not passive lectures.

After each main-room session, delegates move into focused workshop spaces that take the main-stage ideas and explore what they mean in practice. Anyone can do parallel streams.

No. 2027 builds on the history of the online events but moves the journey forward: a hybrid congress with the live room at the centre and streaming extending the reach.

Live access to selected keynote sessions from the main stage, streamed at no cost. It is a taste of the congress rather than the full programme: the complete streamed experience is the online ticket, and the full Therapy Live experience is in the room.
