I have been suffering for several years from various joint and muscle issues which have had a detrimental effect on the quality of my life not just by restricting my range of movement but also the associated pain and discomfort. Meeting James for my first session I was impressed by both his friendly empathy and professionalism as well as the interest he took in understanding what I wanted to achieve from the sessions. His thoroughness in assessing my condition before commencing treatment was refreshing as well as reassuring I was impressed how quickly he identified the key trauma areas that needed attention. Following each session I have been able to recognise and feel improvement both in pain reduction and increased movement which has been transformational for my quality of life. James’s practice is an hour’s car journey away from my home but the journey is worth it just to feel the post session gains.

After I injured my wrist playing football, I went to see James at his clinic and he gave me hands on treatment and follow up exercises. I noticed the swelling and pain improved after our session and with the exercises he recommended. I would thoroughly recommend James for any physiotherapy needs.Posted on John HinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started seeing James at the end of October which is when I injured my knee. With James’ help he was able to help me straight away with some exercises and also referred me for an MRI which confirmed my worst fear, an ACL rupture and torn meniscus. I continued to see James working on getting my balance back and getting strength back into my knee. James was very approachable and always willing to listen to my moans and questions with professionalism. I finally had my surgery this month and the surgeon and staff were very happy with how my knee was and should make my recovery easier, which is a huge credit to James for helping me achieve my goals in preparation to surgery. I will continue to see James after surgery to ensure I am going in the right direction towards my recovery and goals.
