I have been treated by Sonja at The Pure Practice over the last 6 months having been recommended to this Practice by my rheumatology consultant. The physiotherapy treatment I have received has been second to none and has helped me tackle the symptoms of my chronic condition. I have no hesitation in recommending The Pure Practice to you.

I had a good physio session with Sonja working on my back following an injury. I also tried mat Pilates at her suggestion with Alex and it has been really helpful in loosening up tense muscles. I have booked more sessions.

Since moving to Bath in 2021 I have had a variety of treatments for sporting injuries with Sonja Bass, (Director and Lead Physio). Sonja is highly professional with a wealth of experience behind her. I have always received effective treatments and seen quick and positive results. She takes time to listen to concerns, and discuss treatment options and provides additional exercises that can be done easily at home. The clinic environment and staff all contribute to a welcoming and positive atmosphere. Booking appointments online is very simple by by phone or via the Pure Practice website. I would thoroughly recommend The Pure Practice
