Member of – Cheltenham
I am Ash Dougan, founder of COA Performance, a leading sports therapy and performance clinic based in Cheltenham. My background as a national-level swimmer and former Royal Marine gives me a unique understanding of high-performance training, rehabilitation, and long-term movement quality. I work with clients across the Cotswolds ranging from competitive athletes to anyone recovering from injury or looking to move with more confidence.
At COA Performance we specialise in sports therapy, injury rehabilitation, sports massage, movement analysis, and performance coaching. Our approach combines hands-on treatment with tailored rehab and strength programmes, helping clients reduce pain, improve mobility, and return to training stronger than before. With over a thousand clients on our books and a reputation for results-driven care, we are committed to raising the standard of sports therapy in Cheltenham.
I hold ITEC Level 4 Sports Massage qualifications, CrossFit certification, and I am currently progressing through a Level 5 Sports Therapy Diploma and Advanced Anatomy education. Alongside this, my BSc in Marketing helps me develop our online rehabilitation resources, digital coaching services, and educational content, ensuring COA Performance continues to grow both in-person and online.
As we expand into our new Cheltenham facility, my mission is to build a space where people can achieve sustainable performance, long-term health, and a better understanding of how their body moves. I’m passionate about collaborating with local gyms, clubs, and businesses across the Cotswolds to support a stronger, more active community.
