Can’t rate pro sport enough! Helped me build back my strength and confidence following multiple disc herniations following my pregnancy. Signed off today after 8 sessions. Thanks Harrison! Alice Cole2024-10-19 I’ve used this place since for the last 14 months, very professional, do what they say, good results , nice staff with good attitudes. Allan Doherty2024-10-16 Well, what can I say! I would recommend ProSport Physiotherapy to anyone and in fact, I've already started spreading the word. I have been through 2 and a half years worth of treatment through the NHS due to issues with my back and nothing seemed to work. I had had enough of feeling like I was never going to feel somewhat of a release of my constant pain and as a last resort, decided to go for a consultation with ProSport Physiotherapy. I can genuinely say, it was the best decision of my life. I was told by Oli (my superstar physiotherapist) that I would be pain-free one day, however, did I truly believe that? In all honesty, no! Well, boy did he prove me wrong. Within 7 sessions with Oli, I am now pain-free without the need to take any medication which was my ultimate goal in life and I am proud to say that with the wonderful help and guidance from Oli, I have reached my goal. Thank you sooooo much, Oli. I genuinely cannot put into words the change you have made to my life. I am, and will always be, truly grateful. Bex :-) Rebecca Chambers2024-10-14 really great place! super friendly and so helpful :-) would recommend to anyone Katya2024-10-12 Fabulous service Rooms Together2024-10-06 Excellent treatment - clear explanation of problem and clear guidance on what to do Great people Tony Goodwin2024-10-02 This clinic has been just what I needed, after endless visits to hospital and trying to reach out for help, nothing much was progressing and my pains were getting worse. As soon as I walked into this clinic I felt I was in good hands, the staff were so friendly and they were there to listen to me, and they were able to get me started from day 1 when I had not even signed up yet. That was a massive indication that I was in the right place, they understood what I was going through, which made me feel I was being heard. This is a long term journey for me, and I feel that with the help of the professionals here they will get me to some form of recovery so that I can get on with my life. Selina Hafiz2024-10-01 I would highly recommend ProSport Physio, especially seeing Sarah. I've received help for an ACL injury both pre and post op and have no complaints. Sarah makes you feel listened to and tries to understand the problems you're experiencing so that she can tailor the exercises/ massages to your exact needs, making sure that you know how to complete the exercises without causing any pain or further damage. Not just that but she takes a genuine interest in your achievements which really makes a difference if you are feel frustrated with your injury. Gemma Walker2024-09-24 Sarah is a wonderful and knowledgeable sports therapist. She resolved my back issue in one session after an unsuccessful appointment with an NHS physiotherapist. I am so grateful that I came across her and i highly recommend ProSport as a company. Nazneena Zimri2024-09-23
