Assess
A detailed history and a thorough examination of movement, strength and the affected area. You leave knowing what is wrong, why it happened and exactly what we are going to do about it.
Get a clear diagnosis and a plan that gets you back to the work, sport and life you love, combining hands-on treatment with progressive exercise and honest education so you understand exactly what is driving your back, neck, joint or sports pain.
Your first visit is a full 60-minute assessment: a detailed history, then testing of how you move, how strong you are and what the painful area is actually doing. We explain the working diagnosis in plain English and agree a plan with you before any treatment starts.
You leave with a written summary and a home programme, emailed the same day and loaded into the Move Health app so the technique stays right between visits.
Your first hour is spent finding the cause, not guessing at it. We take a full history, test how you move and load, then explain the working diagnosis in plain English before any treatment starts. Patients often tell us that finally understanding the problem is half the battle.
Hands-on manual therapy settles the painful, guarded phase of back, neck, shoulder and joint problems, in line with NICE first-line guidance. We calm symptoms early so you can keep working and keep moving rather than putting life on hold.
We look at how your training actually loads your body, then rebuild the strength, control and confidence that running, lifting, golf or team sport demands. The plan is built around your goal, so you return ready rather than tentative.
A graded programme guides you through post-operative rehabilitation at the pace the healing tissue needs. We measure range, strength and function at each visit so recovery keeps moving without pushing too hard, too soon.
A plan you cannot follow is not a plan. We take account of your desk hours, your travel, your training and your family, then build a programme around what you can genuinely do. Every exercise is emailed the same day and loaded into the Move Health app so the technique stays right.
Progressive exercise rebuilds the load tolerance your body needs for desk days, training and daily life. Finishing your rehabilitation, rather than stopping the week the pain eases, is the most reliable way to reduce how often problems come back.

I saw Amanda for a problem I've been having with a painful shoulder. She explained to me what the problem was, did a thorough treatment session and gave me some exercises to do to improve it. Very professional and friendly, I highly recommend her.
I first visited Amanda following a maisonneuve fracture. That day I walked 107 steps in a camboot with two crutches. I have visited weekly. Yesterday I walked 13,315 steps (no crutches, no boot). The transformation is truly amazing.
I booked with Michelle for my first appointment. When I stood up I said to her it feels like heaven as my continuous back pain had totally gone. I was totally pain free for 7 hours so bless you Michelle.
Excellent treatment of my lower back and related sciatica injuries from CrossFit. Definitely my go-to therapist when in dire need of pain relief.
You can refer yourself, with no GP letter needed, and book online in a couple of minutes at whichever clinic is easier to reach.
Most people arrive with something that hurts. What happens after that is the part most clinics leave to chance. We treat the problem, rebuild the capacity you lost, then keep you strong enough that it stays fixed.

Hands-on manual therapy chosen for your presentation, with Western medical acupuncture or soft-tissue work added where they help. Treatment is not the goal in itself: it opens the window to move and load properly.
Progressive, coached exercise rehabilitation restores the strength and load tolerance you lost, with full gym facilities at both clinics. This is the stage that decides whether the fix lasts.
Each follow-up measures you against your own baseline. We discharge you when you have the strength and the tools to manage alone, with clinical Pilates, sports massage and golf screening on hand to keep you there.
The starting point for better health. Our clinics work together to take you from injury, through recovery and performance, to the kind of health that holds up for decades. One team, one plan, one record of where you started.

FAQ
No. UK physiotherapists are first-contact practitioners, so you can refer yourself and book directly online. If you are claiming on private health insurance your provider may want a GP referral first, so check your policy. Self-funding patients never need a referral to see us.
An initial consultation is £120 and lasts 60 minutes, covering assessment, treatment and your plan. Follow-up appointments are £95 for 60 minutes, or £75 for 30 minutes where a single area needs treating. Manual therapy, acupuncture and exercise rehabilitation are included as appropriate.
Most acute injuries settle within three to six sessions across four to eight weeks. Longer-standing problems such as persistent low back pain, recurring tendinopathy or post-surgical rehabilitation usually need six to twelve. We agree a realistic course at your first appointment and reassess every visit.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing that lets us assess and move the affected area: shorts for lower-limb problems, a vest top for shoulder or neck issues. Bring any scan or test results, insurer details if you have them, and a list of any medication you take.
