About us

The Leg Wedge has been developed by expert Physiotherapist, Niall McGregor, Owner of The Physiotherapy Place in Edinburgh, Scotland. The Leg Wedge was originally used as a tool for treating patients in the clinic in order to be able to work on them in a neutral spined position. Clients found the position so comfortable, they started to buy them direct.

With 18 years experience treating private patients and elite athletes, Niall prides himself on providing a friendly, relaxed environment for his patients. Determined to deliver the highest level of care, he established his own practice opening The Physiotherapy Place in 2017. 

Niall gained a first class Masters degree in Sport Science and Physiology from the University of Glasgow before going on to complete a Masters in Physiotherapy from the University of East Anglia. He has since worked in the NHS, for Hearts Football Club, and in British Columbia, Canada where he underwent extensive post-graduate training in manual and manipulative therapy and Gunn Intramuscular Stimulation.

“As a physiotherapist I am constantly seeing people who suffer from conditions where they find it hard to find a comfortable position to relax. Many people lose a lot of sleep for this reason which compounds their problem as tiredness can cause the perception of pain to increase. Even finding a comfortable position on the physio bed to treat these people was becoming a problem so I developed The Leg Wedge as a way to take pressure off the painful joints and nerves in order to get them in a relaxed position so that I could treat them.

Having used The Leg Wedge in my clinic for many years, I was asked by so many clients where they could buy one that I decided to make them available for anyone to purchase. Clients feel instant relief when their legs are raised into a certain position. The Leg Wedge is designed to meet this angle and my patients love it.
