Thank you
I can’t thank Dawn enough for her guidance and support. I tore my IT band and didn’t think I could even run at all and 4 months later I completed the New York marathon! Dawn is so knowledgeable and caring. I had complete faith in her the whole way through my rehabilitation and could not have done it without her.

Congratulations on your incredible achievement!
I have had the pleasure of Dawn's treatment for the past few months for an ongoing leg issue. Dawn has been brilliant both in terms of physical treatment but also in the provision of mental support. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much. What a pleasure to treat you and be part of your rehab journey.
Dawn is easily the most personable, professional and thorough physio I have seen. I suffered from a stress fracture earlier this year and Dawn has supported me through my rehab journey - which would have been extremely tough without her guidance. She has a very supportive and positive approach, and now I will never go to another physio.

Love how you have thrived and been so committed to the rehab process - stronger now too!
Excellent by all metrics, would not want to go anywhere else

Thank you for this kind recommendation.
I was given Dawn's contact details by a friend, since the first time I met her I was drawn to her positive energy and reassurance. I went to her twice so far and she helped me tremendously through races and injuries. Highly recommended!

Absolute pleasure to see you smash your running goals! Well done.
I have been struggling with chronic knee pain for a long time. She put me right back on track. I can now enjoy cycling, tennis and gym again. Really professional I highly recommend working with her !

Fantastic to be part of your rehab journey.
Dawn was fantastic from the first assessment where she diagnosed my injury as well as picking up on other issues that may have been a contributing factor. Dawn has been very thorough and set up a structured program to fix all my underlying issues to get me back to playing sports again. I would highly recommend Dawn.

It is great to see the improvement and see how you are even stronger than before we started.
I really enjoy Dawn treatment. She understands what I need and work together with my routine to put a plan that can work for me.

An absolute pleasure seeing you get back to your sport.
Dawn was extremely thorough and fully took into consideration everything I told her when making a plan for my recovery. Had me back running and completing a half-marathon in no time. I also appreciated that she helped me plan my regime going forward so to ensure I am able to continue running whilst minimising the risk of injury through the addition of specific strength training.

Well done on your half and great to hear you're progressing so well.
Dawn is an excellent clinician. She puts patients first and goes above and beyond for her patient's.
