WHAT PEOPLE THINK OF US

Went to the clinic after a sprained ankle injury. Practice manager Nick treated me 5 weeks out from a half marathon.He was great and checked in on my progress all the time as i was determined to complete the run.I managed to get the half marathon done and wouldn't have been possible without the help. Great experience.
The best treatment for my shoulder that I could possibly haveI had a really good experience and I definitely recommend this place
Had the most incredible massage on my upper back/shoulders/neck by Ray yesterday. Walked out felling 100%. Tension gone! Thanks Ray!!
I went in for back pain. After therapy, l noticed immediately the pain gone and have stayed pain-free ever since. It's been 4 weeks since the 1st visit. I highly recommend a visit for your whatever problem. Worth the try?
Podiatrist Joel Erskine is absolutely brilliant. His kindness and gentle nature with my 9yo son was exceptional. My son was really worried about having treatment to his plantar warts. Joel has been able to reassure him with age appropriate explanations along the way. Highly recommended.
Great facility, had the best massage from Ray , highly recommend her
I've been training for more than an Year and these guys are unbelievable. Highly recommended !!!

That’s why this Perinatal Mental Health Week, we want you to know that everyone needs help at some point in their lives, and everyone deserves compassion and support 🙋🏾‍♀️
