Ms Erin Lahay

Erin helped me recover following a climbing injury (rotator cuff). She explained everything very clearly and made sure I was comfortable with all the exercises before leaving each session. All the exercises were available in an app with example videos and the ability to track the reps and sets which was useful. Erin also helped to assess my running form and trainers before an ultramarathon. I would highly recommend Erin :)

I've had PT since I was 9 years old (1992 in case of interest...). I've probably seen 20+ Physio specialists for different issues (lower back, upper back, knees). Since 2022, Erin has been my go to, without a doubt, even if it means some logistics challenges as venue not so close to my home or office (I discovered Erin and the clinic as I used to be local). Has been a real game changer (since seeing Erin no problem has come back after seeing her and properly following her recommendations). Recenly, after a fall that injured my right leg and limited my mobility, incl. knee bending challenges, I saw Erin for the usual initial assessment. She was, as always, outstanding—kind, attentive, and highly professional. Her assessment was thorough and thoughtful, she clearly identified the issues, and did refer me to a sports doctor to confirm her initial thoughts, which ended up showing excellent judgment. I felt genuinely cared for and confident in her expertise throughout.

I came to Pure Sports Medicine with knee pain from running. I saw Erin who identified the issue and recommended a course of exercises and to see the podiatrist. Collectively this really improved my knee and I’ve been able to run further without pain. It was always a pleasure to see Erin and she kept me motivated and doing the exercises.

I came to see Erin about my “runners knee”. She put together a comprehensive rehabilitation plan. She also referred me to the podiatrist who helped me find more suitable running shoes. The plan worked really well and I was able to run further without pain. She was always a pleasure to see and kept me on track.

I’m very happy with my experience with Erin. I came in with upper back tension and limited shoulder rotation, and after a few months I now have full rotation, much more strength, and far better symmetry. Erin regularly tracked my progress with objective strength data, which was really reassuring. Her colleagues Charlie and Simon were also great—Charlie helped assess symmetry and leg strength with force plates, and Simon’s osteopathy work (especially identifying tension in my first rib) made a big difference to my neck mobility. Highly recommended.

Erin is a very knowledgeable professional and caring physio who fixed my right knee and hip. I am now back to full participation in CrossFit.

Erin was my physiotherapist and was great throughout, explained everything, continuously measured progress and was very easy and open to discussing the ups and downs of recovery, as it never always goes smoothly. Seen a few physios over the years but can highly recommend.

I cannot recommend Erin highly enough. Over the past three months, she has helped me immensely with both shoulder and lower back pain. What sets Erin apart is her holistic approach. She took the time to thoroughly assess my body, running strength tests and identifying underlying issues rather than just treating symptoms. Her treatment combined soft tissue massage to relieve pain and a tailored exercise routine designed specifically for my needs. The results have been incredible - my pain has improved dramatically, and the changes have truly been life-changing. Beyond the physical improvements, Erin has also supported me mentally. She helped me shift my perspective on pain and has taught me not to give up on getting better. Her professionalism, empathy, and expertise have made all the difference. I can't thank her enough.

I visited Erin for physio in relation to knee pain which had caused me problems for around 5 months prior to the first visit. Erin provided clear guidance and set out a clear programme of strengthening exercises monitoring my progress over a number of months and gradually building up the load. Very satisfied with the treatment offered and am now pain free.

Erin is by far the best physio I have ever worked with. I started seeing her in early Feb 2025, with no clear idea of what was wrong - only a general feeling of being ‘uneven’. By November 2025, I’m no longer in any pain or discomfort, and I now have a significantly better understanding of my body and how to look after myself for years to come. Earlier this year, I was referred to Erin by another member of her clinic, who told me she was one of the best physios around - little did I know just how true that would turn out to be. From the start, Erin spent hours with me, taking the time to understand how I was feeling and how my body was moving. She carried out countless tests on different muscles, and together we identified the root of the issue within just a few sessions. Over the past eight months, we’ve worked together on strengthening my muscles through a mix of gym-based and mobility exercises, building strength to support my shoulders and back. She has patiently listened to me week after week as I’ve asked new questions, always going above and beyond to adapt my programme to suit my current targets. I can confidently say I’ve never been in such great health, and as I approach the end of my treatment, I feel reassured knowing exactly how to take care of myself going forward – all thanks to Erin.
