I was referred to Oli after seeing a specialist Doctor after two years of leg pain that meant I couldn't run without discomfort. I'd seen three physios before him, and by that point I was honestly starting to lose hope that anyone would get to the bottom of it. Oli was different from the start. He's clearly a physio at the top of his game. After a few sessions and providing him with detailed pain diaries he identified the root cause and put together a proper plan combining soft tissue work with targeted exercises and stretches. What really impressed me was that even though I was travelling an hour and a half to see him, he put me in touch with a soft tissue specialist closer to home so I could stay on top of my rehab between sessions. I'm now well on the way to recovery, and I can't recommend him enough if you're after a physio who genuinely knows his stuff.

This was my first time receiving any physio & Oli made me feel comfortable & explained everything. He went through a number of exercises & found the ones that suited me best. He set out my daily exercise regime & after a week I could feel the difference I couldn’t recommend Oli enough

Oli was recommended to me by my sports and exercise medicine consultant, and I’ve just had a full initial assessment with him. I’m very impressed with how comprehensive it was and he is, and he read all my notes I sent him in advance (there were a lot). He leaves no stone unturned, and takes the time to explain things in an understandable way. He’s also super professional and personable, it was a pleasure to meet and chat with him. His follow up report to me and my doctor reinforces that I know I’m in safe hands. Thanks Oli :)

Excellent, very thorough and knowledgable assessment of a long term tendinopathy injury. Feeling very positive after seeing Oli and looking forward to my rehab journey and getting back to running.

I was referred to Oli by a specialist after almost a year of unsuccessful physio and shockwave therapy for chronic hamstring tendinopathy. As a runner I was unable to train or race without pain. Oli immediately identified imbalances and weaknesses and created a rehab programme with structured strength and conditioning sessions that have enabled me to run mostly pain free and to start training again within three months. And I now have an ongoing S&C programme tailored for runners to help keep on top of it and manage it. Thoroughly recommend Oli for anything from everyday issues to longstanding problems.

Oli completed a very comprehensive review of my injury and was very thorough in making sure the issue was identified. I left the consultation feeling very reassured about the way forward and armed with a wide selection of rehab exercises to complete, supported by videos and notes.

Oli was outstanding—highly experienced, approachable, and excellent at explaining treatment. The studio was modern, clean, warm, with easy access and parking. I noticed immediate improvement in my long-term shoulder issue. A truly excellent experience; I would highly recommend his services.
