    Two years of on-and-off lower back pain and nobody had actually explained it to me. Laura did in the first session. Six weeks later I'm deadlifting again.

    ★★★★★
    Daniel got me from ACL surgery to finishing a half marathon. The rehab plan on the app made it easy to stick to between sessions.

    Questions

    Before you book

    Something else? Call us on 020 7123 4580 — a physio, not a call centre, will answer.

    Do I need a referral from my GP?

    No. You can book directly. Some insurers ask for a GP referral before they authorise treatment — check with them first if you're claiming.

    How many sessions will I need?

    It depends on the problem, but most people need between 3 and 6. We'll give you an estimate at the end of your first appointment and won't book more than you need.

    What should I wear?

    Loose, comfortable clothes. Shorts for knee, hip or ankle problems; a vest top for shoulder and neck problems. We have changing rooms.

    What's your cancellation policy?

    Cancel or move your appointment for free up to 24 hours before. Later cancellations are charged at 50%.

    Do you offer scans?

    Our sports medicine doctor can refer you for an MRI or ultrasound scan, usually within the same week, at a partner imaging centre in Clapham.
