Personalised physiotherapy for your unique needs

Our approach is based on achieving longevity of wellbeing rather than a 10-minute miracle ‘fix’. To do this, we focus on accurate diagnoses and evidence-based, fully personalised treatment and rehabilitation plans. We cover all core physio treatment techniques, including manual therapy and exercise prescription, as well as specialist interventions like shockwave therapy, neuro muscular stimulation, acupuncture and blood flow restriction training.

We are honest and know our scope of practice. So if for any reason we don’t think we’re the health professionals for you, we will tell you and help get you to the right person.

Exercise prescription

Exercise is an excellent treatment for restoring movement and function while rebuilding strength. It promotes faster recovery, relief from pain and better longer-term wellbeing. It also helps reduce risk of future injury.

Alongside your exercise plan, you will have access to a very helpful app which provides demonstrations of your exercises and enables you to track your progress.

Our exercise prescriptions are very successful. We highly recommend you give them a try!

Manual physiotherapy

Manual physiotherapy is where the physiotherapist uses their hands to manipulate, mobilise and massage joints, tissue and nerves. Manual physiotherapy helps to stimulate blood flow, speed up healing, ease pain and get the body moving again.

We offer manual therapy as an adjunct to other treatment techniques to maximise treatment outcomes. We also provide you with self-care advice so you can feel more confident about managing your health going forward.

Diagnostics and treatments

To complement our physiotherapy services and should you require, we and our associate health professionals offer diagnostic ultrasound, with or without guided injections for pain relief.

We also offer some excellent treatments complementary to the physiotherapy process such as acupuncture, shockwave therapy, neuromuscular stimulation and blood flow restriction training.

Self management

We believe it’s very important to your recovery that you understand what is happening to your body, how the recovery process works and what you can do to take back some control.

We therefore provide you with the knowledge and tools to manage your pain more effectively and promote your best possible recovery.

What is musculoskeletal physiotherapy?

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy is a form of assessment and treatment which helps restore movement and function when joints, bones, muscles, ligaments or tendons have become dysfunctional or damaged, usually due to injury, illness or an operation.

Interventions we commonly use include manual therapy, exercise prescription, postural and ergonomic advice and self-care education. Exercise is important as it helps you to build or maintain strength, get things moving again and reduce the risk of future injury.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best there is. Nick Allen is my physio and he excels in every area. There is nothing he doesn't know about supporting recovery. I snapped a leg muscle and came to Nick hobbling and worried I'd never play sports again. Nick has taken me on a journey of recovery and I'm now at a stage where I'm running and enjoying my life again. Exercises I've been given have been adapted to my needs. The level of detail Nick can go into about my injury, why I couldn't do certain activities, how my muscles worked and through it all, has taught me alot about how my body works. His experience performing physio in multiple sports and at all levels also gives him a great ability to know how hard he can push my recovery. Physix and Nick will be the people I use in the long run. I can't recommend Physix and Nick highly enough.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I saw Nick after having a total hip replacement. My aim was to get my strength back, walk correctly and build muscle. The care received was excellent. Nick is a great personable guy. He designed a personal programme after an initial assessment to align with my goals. i have made a full recovery and now walk properly and continue to build muscle and fitness. I would highly recommend Nick for all things physio, especially rehabilitation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. From the outset my experiences with the team at Physix have been stellar. Nick quickly identified exactly what was needed to get my knee back into full operation again, and allow me to compete at my beloved squash. Throughout our sessions his knowledge and patient approach were second to none, and he constantly encouraged me to challenge myself further. As a result of his tailored methods and insights, my healing has not only been rapid but the whole experience has inspired me to get fit and strengthen the rest of my body too. As a result I feel 20 years younger in just a matter of months and my life has completely changed. I can’t recommend Physix highly enough.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First time with Louise, who I saw with a shoulder injury. She made me feel at ease and went into a lot of detail and certainly put across she knew what she was talking about. She spent the time listening to me without me feeling like I was being rushed. Excellent result and no hesitation in recommending her.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I would heavily recommend Nick to anyone. Nick helped me diagnose a problem that was stopping me running. He helped me navigate which medical procedure would be best and was ready to support recovery at the right time. There were two major things that I loved about Nick’s style. The first was that he makes it measurable so you can see progress. The second is that he tailors the recovery work to your favourite type of exercise so it doesn’t just feel like more stretches. I rapidly recovered from an operation with his support and was able to run more than I ever had. I was even able to fulfil my dream and run my first marathon with Nick’s advice. Thanks Nick.
