Most people have struggled back from an injury at one time or another. Whether it is after twisting your ankle whilst walking or playing semi-pro rugby at the weekend, it’s always surprising how long it can take to fully recover.

My feedback is very positive. Booking my appointment was very simple. The fact Maria comes to my home is perfect as travel is tricky considering my operation. With regards to Maria, she is always punctual and friendly. The treatment hurts but it is to be expected and she is very good at explaining why it hurts, to help me understand and therefore not worry. She is also very good at pushing me hard but not too far that I feel it is an unreasonable expectation. So I am very happy with the current service.
