Report
Came to see Dale off the back of seeing a couple of other osteopaths for long term back issues. Immediately was diagnosed different to what other osteopaths thought the problem might be. I was given corrective exercises and noticed improvement within the first couple of weeks which lead to 100% improvement after a month or so and I could resume full training pain free. Excellent experience and value for money as only a few sessions were needed to correct.

I went in thinking that I knew what my injury was, but Jake soon helped diagnose the problem and provided me with treatment and exercises to do at home which has now allowed me to get back playing football again! Would recommend any athletes going here if you want a good 2nd opinion!

I thoroughly recommend Hardiman Performance! I saw Jake about back and hip pain I'd been suffering from and he has absolutely resolved my problems. Jake is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. He used manual therapy and gave me an exercise programme to target my problem areas and adapted them as and when it was needed. Now I'm actually pain free and have information to hand about how to continue strengthening the problem areas. If I had any other problems crop up I would definitely go back to Jake for advice and help.

Had shoulder pain for a few years that I finally decided to get checked out, as it was starting to creep into everyday activities. Had a few sessions with Jake and the pain is now minimal to nothing! Would highly reccomend, great help and a lovely guy

100% recommend. I had severe lower back pain with very little movement. Along side with medication Hardiman had me up and walking and out of pain within 2 weeks. I felt confident and reassured with their professional care. So much so I've referred family and friends since

Report
I had a back pain due to a long journey and carrying two pieces of overweight luggage. The pain began to spread to the hip within a few days. Because Dale had helped my wife and my father-in-law to solve their problems effectively before, so I immediately booked an appointment with Dale. Dale introduced the cause of my pain and the treatment plan in detail during the initial consultation. After several treatments, my back pain disappeared completely. I have recommended Dale and Hardiman Performance to several friends, and I will continue to recommend them to all friends who may need physical therapy
