Services
Physiotherapy
Our physiotherapy services address acute injuries, chronic pain, and post-surgical recovery through evidence-based techniques. We specialise in joint and muscle rehabilitation, offering hands-on treatment and exercise prescriptions tailored to individual mobility goals. Patients benefit from one-on-one consultations that integrate lifestyle factors and medical history for comprehensive care.
Cancer Rehabilitation
Cancer rehabilitation focuses on restoring physical function after treatment through targeted exercise and manual therapy. We address fatigue, mobility limitations, and strength deficits using PINC & STEEL protocols. Our approach combines cardiovascular conditioning, strength training, and confidence-building exercises to support long-term recovery and quality of life.
Home Visits
Home visit services provide accessible care for patients with mobility restrictions or complex home environments. We assess living spaces to recommend adaptations while delivering hands-on treatment and exercise guidance. This service ensures continuity of care without requiring travel to our clinic.
Pilates
Clinical pilates sessions focus on improving core stability, flexibility, and posture through controlled movements. Tailored programmes address individual weaknesses and movement imbalances, making it ideal for injury prevention and rehabilitation. Sessions use specialist equipment to support progressive strength development.
Hydrotherapy
Hydrotherapy utilises heated pools to facilitate low-impact exercise for joint and muscle conditions. The buoyancy reduces weight-bearing stress while allowing resistance training. This service is particularly effective for arthritis management, post-operative recovery, and improving mobility in complex cases.

Absolutely excellent. Extremely knowledgeable and professional. I had complications after spine surgery in the summer and am now fully recovered thanks in no small part to Sue. I've had bad experiences in the past with physio, but Sue paced my recovery just right. I started to feel a really significant benefit after just a couple of appointments. I can't speak highly enough of her. Mel has also been brilliant developing an ongoing pilates routine for me to help prevent issues in the future.

I'd had life limiting back pain for 10 years since slipping a disc running. I've been to countless physios, chiropractors and doctors and nobody could help. After a discogram procedure at the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital they wanted to operate but I thought the risks were too high at my age so said no. I came to sue on a recommendation and in lots of pain. the work that we did together has meant I'm almost pain free. Her entire approach is different to what I'd experienced before and it actually worked and I'm back running and in the gym. I'd 100% recommend sue to anyone. She's a very
