What people thought of our work
A Solution from Long Term Lower Back Pain
I've suffered with lower back pain and inflexibility for around two decades. I previously tried several therapies including physiotherapy, chiropractic medicine, standard pilates classes, and bespoke gym training routines. None were as effective as the rehab and clinical pilates offered by Joanna. She really tailors her approach according to your particular needs, and offers continuous ongoing support and informed advice. Very highly recommended.

Empathetic, Knowledgeable Approach
Joanna is both extremely knowledgeable and Empathetic. She has been supporting me along my rehab journey and I wish I’d been to see her sooner

Peri-Menopausal Recovery with Pain
Joanna provides a refreshingly holistic approach to her therapy. I can’t recommend her enough. I started seeing her because I had developed ankle pain related to problems with my opposite knee. Treatment is ongoing, but it has involved individual consultations as well as group sessions which keep cost down with homework to complete between appointments. Joanna is really interested in progress and has provided a lot of support and care since I have met her. I have been seeing her for 3 months and have seen a lot of progress- I’m menopausal so body recovery is not the fastest anymore but I’m pleased with the progress. The reason I started seeing her was because I was exasperated by ongoing injuries and complications when I tried to increase my exercise regimen. I am delighted with the progress I have made.

FAQs
I don't have an injury but something doesn't feel right - can you help?
Definitely! We love to help people before they get injured, because if we can save you experiencing pain and injury, for us the world is a better place!
If you want to share your story, then we are here to listen – no commitment at all, just the chance to find out how we might be able to help you!
Will it hurt?
We try to do everything possible to make things stop hurting for you. However sometimes, pain is unavoidable when you are in acute pain.
So we make a promise to every client: we explain what we want to do, show you what we want to, demonstrate it on the good side (if there is a good side) so that you are fully informed and consenting each and every time!
Are you a Masseuse, Physiotherapist, Chiropractor or Osteopath?
Definitely not!
Joanna is a Graduate Sports Therapist by education.
BUT we are all Rehabilitation Therapists! We all access the same sort of tools, techniques and tests to assess and then treat our patients. We are just different flavours on a very broad spectrum.
Ultimately, your decision should be based on your goals, objectives and communication style / preferences. You need a cheerleader shouting about your success at every stage!
Is there a quick fix for my back / neck / hip / shoulder pain?
We can use treatments like massage and manual therapy to access your body’s own amazing pain killing systems, but we aren’t going to lie to you: Full recovery takes commitment and hard work on your behalf.
It often takes months and years for someone to descend into injury, so it takes time to unpick the issues and strengthen to correct.
We will be there every step of the way and we won’t bring you in for unnecessary treatments or keep you coming back for more than you need.
Our goal is to rehab you once, do it right and send you on your way!
I can't afford 1:2:1 work - how else can you help?
We appreciate that not everyone has spare funds aside for this sort of support but please do get in touch and have a chat.
We will do everything we can to help you out, whatever your budget.
