Ms Kathryn Tilbury is a knowledgeable specialist who always helps patients. She aids recovery for conditions such as ACL surgery, hip problems, and broken bones. Patients get fast diagnoses and custom exercises, often with video support for quick gains in daily life. Her top work covers rehabilitation, sports injuries, back pain, and knee pain.
I am extremely happy with the treatment KT has provided. I came to her with persistent knee and hip pain from long‑distance running, and she has been instrumental in helping me recover. Beyond easing the pain, KT has focused on strengthening the surrounding areas with precise, effective techniques—both during our sessions and through tailored exercises I can continue at home. KT’s manner is exceptional. She brings warmth, professionalism, and genuine enthusiasm to every appointment, making physio something I actually look forward to. Her dedication shines through in the detailed notes, thoughtful follow‑ups, and practical advice she provides after each session. She really does go above and beyond for her clients. I wholeheartedly recommend KT to anyone in need of physiotherapy.
After struggling with a shoulder injury for around a year and a half, and trying different physiotherapists, a friend recommended Katy to me. It was one of the best decisions I've made. During that time, I had ongoing pain with a very particular movement. Despite trying different approaches, my shoulder never seemed to fully recover. From the first appointment, it was obvious that Katy has an exceptional understanding of the body. She carried out a thorough assessment and created a personalised rehabilitation plan that made me feel confident my shoulder was finally being treated properly. I've already seen noticeable improvements in a short period of time, with less pain and better mobility. After struggling for so long, it finally feels like I'm making real progress. Katy is knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely cares about her patients' recovery. I'm looking forward to continuing my rehabilitation with her and can't thank her enough for all her help.

Thank you for sharing your experience. So happy to be helping you.
KT is meticulous, attentive, observant, vigilant, kind, creative and extremely knowledgeable. She did lots of tests and asked many questions to pinpoint my injuries and made sure we both fully understood what was going on. I felt like she really cared about helping me feel better and get back to work. Before seeing KT, I was feeling quite down about my injuries, feeling like I couldn't do anything and having to completely change the way I work. KT gave me a clear recovery plan that included doing the things I love and movements I need to do for work in a scalable way, and getting me back into my studio space rather than working from home. She took the time and care to understand what movements were most important to my work and included them in my recovery plan. I was able to confidently return to work and steadily increase the amount of work I could do without fearing reinjuring myself. KT taught me how to tell if I have pushed my body too far or not enough, how to listen and understand my body signals, and how to keep track of my progress. She has given me different exercises and changes them as my body gets stronger/heals. She takes clear videos to make sure I remember how to do the exercise properly and takes special attention to make sure I understand the proper form and what to watch out for. I could not be happier or recommend KT enough.

Thank you for your kind words! It’s been an honour to help you recover from your injuries. KT
I have an issue with my wrist due and have limited mobility. KT supported with a plan to rehabilitate. Showed all the exercises very clearly and I had been doing them at home since and am seeing an improvement. I have been to KY previously also and she has a very professional and clear manner. I would highly recommend KT

thank you so much! Always happy to help you.
I’ve been seeing KT for over 5 years, initially for an ankle fracture and more recently for back issues, and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. She is incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and always tailors treatment to exactly what I need. KT’s approach is both highly personalised and results-driven, combining deep clinical expertise with genuine care and attention to detail. Having experienced other physiotherapy services through family members, I can confidently say KT’s standard of care is exceptional. I’ve trusted her with both my own treatment and my family’s, and will continue to do so. If you’re looking for a physiotherapist who truly knows what they’re doing and is focused on delivering real outcomes, I would highly recommend KT.

thank you so much for these kind words. It's always a pleasure to work with you and your family.
My recent visit was exceptional as always KT has made such improvements with my injury that I am just so grateful to have her continued excellent specialist input.
KT is awesome! She is extremely knowledgeable in her field, encouraging, and kind. She has helped my recovery significantly.

Thank you so much!
Having been to a number of physios Kathryn’s professionalism really stood out alongside her clear deep technical knowledge and ability to distill this in a way that’s easy to understand. Fully recommend.

Thank you. It’s been lovely to work with you.
I've seen KT for some lower back issues for a while and she really helped me understand what was going on. She took a personalised approach to help me get better. She is very knowledgeable and very professional

Thank you!
I highly recommend KT. After a fall 22 months ago, I tried to power through the discomfort and pain in my knee. Eventually, I decided to get help after receiving a recommendation. From the first session, KT was incredibly understanding and never judged me for waiting so long to get seen. She focused on identifying the root cause of my issue while also supporting my goal of participating in a Hyrox event. After three or four sessions, and with KT's suggestion, I consulted a surgeon she recommended for an MRI. This provided us with valuable insights into my knee health. I continued with my treatment and successfully completed a return-to-run test. Today, I've now been discharged and have officially started my run plan! Thank you KT!

Well done! What a joy to work with you.
I have been working closely with KT for several years, collaborating and discussing patient care to ensure the best outcomes for our mutual patients. She is very professional and provides patients with a fantastic, comprehensive service. I have received lots of very positive feedback from patients I have referred to her for treatment. She is very approachable and has a really good understanding of the needs and demands of sports men and women of all standards
