Sonja could not have been more helpful and caring. She is a great listener and gave me some very useful and achievable exercises. The follow-up sessions were rewarding. A very good experience.

The staff at Pure Practice are caring, knowledgeable and friendly which is why I return weekly for my class after having excellent physio treatment. I would thoroughly recommend the practice.

I was very impressed with the response and treatment. In my late 70s, I’ve seen many physios over the years, but Sonja Bass is up there with the very best. I hope she is still at Pure when I next need help.

A few of my appointments started late, and a few also over ran. While it could be frustrating it wasn't because each appointment felt focused on my rehabiliation not a strict time slot. The descriptions of the exercises that were shared after each session were really helpful and I could have on my phone screen as I was putting them into practice at home
