The Physios: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I was always welcomed by a very professional reception team who welcomed everyone by name and a smile. I was treated by Johnny for a shoulder injury and resulting frozen shoulder. Johnny used his skills/knowledge and the diagnostic ultrasound to diagnose the problems.Treatment was then to specfic areas. I had both manual treatment and injection therapy and went from very limited movement and painful shoulder to full range of movement which is pain free. ( I am now able to do a full golf swing again !) It was great that Johnny was able to do all aspects of the treatment including the injection which saved me being passed back to GPs /consultants. Thank you for all your help, Julie
Thank for your review Julie. We are glad you are back on the golf course in time for some decent weather!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic, friendly, professional service and a fun experience too. Would recommend to anyone. First class!
Thanks for the 5 stars Stuart.
Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience with Jon Grayson for physiotherapy on my knee following surgery. From the first appointment, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. He carefully assessed my condition, explained everything clearly, and created a treatment plan that really helped. All staff at The Physios were incredibly professional, friendly, and welcoming, creating a comfortable and supportive environment. Every visit left me feeling confident in my recovery and well cared for. I highly recommend The Physios to anyone seeking expert, compassionate physiotherapy—thank you for helping me get back to my best!
Thanks for your review Alaa. We really appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: I would strongly recommend The Physios as the place to visit for an injury you may be concerned with. I'd recently injured my knee after a long distance hike and was in need of it looking into as the pain was preventing me from exercising or working properly. Was unsure on where to go as I'd never used a physio previously but after seeing the reviews for The Physios I went ahead to book an appointment. It became immediately apparent why the reviews are so high. The receptionists are warm and welcoming and this extended to everyone Sarah as my physio who's been awesome from the beginning. Very knowledgeable, kind and understanding as a person. She quickly surmised that I might have a meniscus tear and tailored my recovery program to getting back into hiking. The depth ot her understanding of knee issues and the speed to which she able to give that information and apply it to me took me by surprise. It clearly comes from a lived in experience of dealing with these issues on a daily basis. It was reassuring to experience. I'm now fully recovered and have zero hesitation in recommending Sarah and The physios to anyone
Thanks for your review Tab. We will be sure to share your review with Sarah.
Fantastic experience: I came here with a bad back that I had been dealing with for a couple of months, making it sometimes almost in possible to move. I manage to get lucky and be booked in with Johnny within a few days off discussing my issues. I’ve seen him 3 times. Not only has my back issue gone, but also learnt the correct exercises to do to strengthen my back. Incredibly grateful that it was so easy to organise; get booked in, and get the issue sorted! Thankyou Johnny for all your help! And just to add to this, all the receptionists are lovely, friendly and very helpful! And they all have huge smiles! Highly recommend
Thanks for your review Sophie. We will be sure to share your thanks with Johnny and the reception team.
Fantastic experience: I had such a positive experience here when seeing Paul and Erin. I’ve been dealing with an ongoing wrist issue for the past three years and had previously felt dismissed by a GP, so it was such a relief to finally feel properly listened to and to be taken seriously from the start. Paul and Erin were incredibly knowledgeable and explained everything clearly, which made me feel really reassured. I am now much more confident about what to do next. I’m really grateful for the care I received and would highly recommend The Physios to anyone and everyone.
Thanks for your review Charlotte. We will be sure to share it with Paul and Erin.
Fantastic experience: Jon has been fantastic in helping me get back to running after an ankle injury. He quickly identified what was causing the problem and worked with me to create a clear, realistic plan to return to training safely. The sessions were knowledgeable, practical, and really motivating throughout the recovery process. I would highly recommend The Physio to anyone looking to recover from an injury and get back to running with confidence.
Thanks for your review Ben. It is great that you are fully recovered and back running confidently.
Fantastic experience: Sarah has been treating me for a hip problem for the last few months. She quickly diagnosed the problem and has given me progressively more challenging exercises to do. At each appointment Sarah listened carefully to any issues I had and moderated my exercise programme accordingly. She is very supportive, positive and professional. 4 months on I am pain-free and confident that I would know what to do if the problem recurs. Great job, Sarah! Thank you so much.
Thanks for the lovely review Diane and glad your recovery has been good
Fantastic experience: I would like to share our positive experience with Sarah following my son Harry’s treatment. When Harry first saw Sarah, he was suffering from ankle and heel pain, which was diagnosed as Sever’s disease. From the very beginning, Sarah was extremely professional, patient, and friendly, and she made Harry feel comfortable straight away. She provided him with different exercises to complete between each session, helping him to strengthen and recover effectively. Thanks to her care and guidance, Harry no longer experiences heel pain, and we are incredibly grateful. Our experience really highlights the importance of early diagnosis, especially for young people who are active in sports. We cannot thank Sarah enough for her support and dedication. I would also like to commend Emily at reception for her warmth and welcoming smile, which makes us feel comfortable and valued at every visit.
Seeing young athletes recover well with the right guidance is incredibly rewarding - thank you for trusting Sarah and the team and for your lovely 5 star review!
Fantastic experience: Very good indeed. Warm and welcoming atmosphere. Friendly reception staff. Excellent physio service and follow up. New parking arrangements are exceptional given the location near RHH.
Thanks Sally - yes we're very fortunate to have the car park in such a busy area - it turns into a beautiful garden in the summer too!
Fantastic experience: I have had many appointments here, and it is a thoroughly delightful place. All of the reception team are wonderful - very kind, friendly, always make an effort to remember who you are and any small details you've shared. It makes attending appointments a pleasure from the very beginning. Mia is excellent, and seeing her has been transformative for my recovery from chronic back pain, which I didn't have much hope of improving. I had been to a long list of physios before coming here, and this has by far been the most successful and pleasant experience. Mia is very knowledgeable and attentive, and never patronising or dismissive. She appears genuinely interested in getting to the root cause of issues, and works with you like you are on the same team. I would recommend Mia to anyone, and particularly those who have had negative experiences with other practitioners and would appreciate a caring approach; or anyone who doesn't feel hopeful at finding answers to their pain, and would like someone who is invested in their journey and recovery.
This means a lot to read - especially knowing Mia could help restore some hope as well as progress after such a long journey. Thanks for the mention of our amazing reception team too - that means such a lot and always appreciated by the whole team.
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Sarah for several months for an injury to my knee from running. She is thoughtful, thorough, kind, and conscientious. She really listens and has given me a series of exercises really catered to my individual needs. I know that when my knee heals and I get back to running I will be stronger and fitter because of her direction. She has also helped me establish a positive and optimistic outlook while I've been injured, which has helped my recovery enormously. I also adore the staff at the front of the house: so welcoming and kind. I highly recommend her and the Physios!
Thank you for such a generous review - Sarah will be thrilled to hear her care and encouragement made such a difference.
Fantastic experience: I came to the Physios after a knee injury which has been an ongoing issue for a while. My experience here is absolutely great from day one. Jon is a great physiotherapist, he is listening to the patient and definitely finding the reasons behind the injury in addition to coming with a long term plan. I am running much better with a decent technique and stronger than ever now. Everyone in the reception team is also great, very welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend!
Thank you for this great review - it epitomises what we aim to do - turning a long-running knee issue into stronger, smoother running!
Fantastic experience: Easy and efficient booking. Friendly welcome with great help and advice. First time round shoulder and this time round elbow.....excellent.
Great review Miles - we really appreciate the feedback!
Fantastic experience: I visited The Physios in October due to a persistent pain in my left elbow. Mia did a detailed assessment of my symptoms and a full examination of the elbow area. She diagnosed an acute tennis elbow injury, and from there we were able to discuss a treatment and rehabilitation plan. This initially involved a three-week (15mins per week) 'shockwave therapy' treatment which is designed to breakdown the injury and re-start the healing process. I found this to be extremely effective and fairly quickly noted some improvement in the pain in my elbow. Following this, Mia has given me a series of gradual rehabilitation exercises to re-strengthen the elbow area. I have found the whole experience really good. Mia is an excellent professional, she clearly has a great knowledge base, and she is able to apply this and communicate really well throughout the process. I've been really impressed with Mia, and the rest of the team at The Physios, all of whom are extremely friendly and professional.
Thanks Daren for the detailed feedback - I would expect nothing less! Really pleased Mia and the team could support your recovery and deliver such a positive experience throughout.
Fantastic experience: After a Summer and Autumn of back pain I’m now pain free and able to move again. Thanks to Jon Grayson Ive even made the 23 hr flight to Australia without any problems. Many thanks to Jon and the wonderful Reception Team for you care and assistance.
Great stuff Paul - we're hoping that photo was taken watching the successful Ashes test?
Fantastic experience: I’ve had problems with leg and back pain for some years but now I feel real improvement after a couple of months. I can feel the expertise and experience in Sue’s magic touch. Together with her valuable exercise recommendations I’m noticeably more supple and sleep better as pain doesn’t interrupt my sleep. Really hoping for complete recovery in a few more months. Brilliant !
Thanks Viv for your review - you've experienced the 'magic touch then?! Hope your recovery continues.
Fantastic experience: Numerous visits over the years with various musculoskeletal problems. Start to feel reassured as soon as I walk in! Reception staff are outstanding with an admirable range of social and professional skills. Clinicians have always been first class and have listened well, examined thoroughly, clearly explained their findings and discussed the recommended treatment programmes. The combination of skilful, hands on treatment and home exercises has been very effective. Highly recommended.
Thanks for your review Chris. We are very happy to help.
Fantastic experience: Outstanding service, care and knowledge!! After 8 months of lower back issues and having been in and out of the NHS physio service for half of that, I decided to seek private help. I was a little sceptical but had nothing to lose as I was so miserable and wanted to be healthy again. After a recommendation by a friend, I gave The Physios a call. Instantly I felt I’d made the right choice. After a short phone consultation I was booked in. I was always welcomed by the amazing reception team. They always knew peoples names and faces and everything was done with a smile. My appointments were with Mia, who was friendly, direct and incredibly knowledgeable. By the end of each session I was possibly in more pain than when I went in but I was always given direction and exercises to do and felt that I was always moving in the right direction. Everything started to fall into place and after a number of weeks my pains started to subside, I no longer needed pain medication, I enjoyed the exercises I was given and I was on the mend. Not only was pain reduced and eventually gone but my flexibility & mental health improved drastically and my understanding of how to help myself increased. I can safely say this has been money well spent and cannot thank the team, especially Mia, enough. If you’ve persistent pain, I’m 99.9% sure this team can help you out.
Thank you for such an honest and detailed review - we’re thrilled Mia and the team could help you move forward, regain confidence, and feel like yourself again.
Fantastic experience: The physios have helped enormously with my chronic migraines and posture. Adam Shepherd, their personal trainer has introduced to exercises for balance and strength and work with him is proving invaluable.
Thanks Janet - Adam is such an important part of team and we're glad you're feeling the benefit!
Fantastic experience: I had severe back pain with pain down one leg that came on during the weekend. I couldn’t get comfortable standing or sitting and had to switch between positions every 10 mins because of the pain. I managed to get an appointment straight away and went with The Physios due to the good reviews and easy online booking with a fast appointment. I saw Issy Hatch and within one session the difference was remarkable. Issy took the time to listen and understand where the pain was located and explained clearly what was going on. I got specific exercises to do and within a couple more appointments, the pain had nearly gone in all movements. Within a few weeks I was back to training properly and realised the need for regular physio to keep on top of working behind a desk and driving a lot. The service level throughout was exceptional and the reception staff are absolutely fantastic. I would highly recommend.
Thank you for the fantastic review James - we’re so pleased Issy and the team could help you recover quickly and get back to training and we really appreciate your recommendations in the future.
Fantastic experience: I was completely immobilised with 2 slipped discs 2 months ago and bed bound for 3 weeks. The Physios made special arrangements taking into account my poor mobility including a disabled parking space and an examination couch which enabled me to lie down on arrival. I felt so encouraged by Mia after a thorough examination, clear explanations and an agreed programme to aid my recovery. I started improving immediately and have continued to make excellent progress through weekly rehab sessions with Mia. I feel so well supported and this has undoubtedly helped me mentally as well as physically with this significant and frustrating condition.
Thank you so much Sharon for sharing your journey - we’re delighted Mia was able to support you throughout your recovery.
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend The Physios highly enough. From the very start, the reception team were welcoming and professional. Izzy, my therapist, worked wonders on a trapped nerve in my neck that was extremely painful and starting to affect my ability to work. She carried out a thorough assessment of my symptoms, and after just the first treatment my mobility improved and the pain subsided. She also gave me clear, easy-to-follow exercises that I could do throughout my working day. After a few more treatments, I am now completely pain free. I only wish I could give The Physios six stars.
Thank you Claudia - we're going to ask Google to fix this as we'd love some 6 star reviews! So glad you're pain-free. We're sure to feedback to the whole team but thanks for highlighting Issy's contribution.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. My daughter has been seeing Sarah since May following a knee injury playing rugby. It has amazing to watch the progress week by week from not being able to weight bear and in constant pain to now beginning a gradual return to the rugby pitch. It's definitely not been an easy journey and theres still a journey ahead, but the constant support, encouragement and challenge from Sarah has been incredible. Sarah has worked tirelessly to find exercises that motivated my daughter and on discovering her love of planks and her determination to accomplish all of Sarah's challenges, physio has been fun! We must also mention the reception team, Emily especially who provides such a warm welcome.
Thank you so much for this review - it means a lot - and we are so happy to see the progress too!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant service from start to finish. Nice friendly welcome from Emily on reception. Experienced, sensible and pragmatic advice from my physio Johnny. Very reassuring. Nice car park which really helps.
Thanks for the lovely feedback Paul - we’ll be sure to share this with the whole team who will really appreciate your comments!
Fantastic experience: Such a wonderful place, they look after you so well. I have benefited greatly from attending strength and conditioning sessions with Adam. He put together an excellent plan to help me regain strength following a period of serious illness. I quickly noticed improvement and i am continuing to get stronger. He has been so encouraging, given fantastic coaching on how to do different exercises and given careful thought to what would be best for me at different stages of my recovery.
Thanks for your kind feedback Dave. We’re so pleased to have a part to play in your recovery and Adam will really appreciate your comments about his encouragement and tailored approach.
Fantastic experience: I developed a painful thumb and booked an appointment with Johnny who recommended an injection. It was a steroid. It worked very well and I am now pain free with full movement back, thank you for my excellent care - Kay Dunn
That is really good news Kay! Thanks for your lovely review
Fantastic experience: I've been having appointments with Sarah for physiotherapy for a range of issues (rotator cuff pain, knee osteoarthritis and a stiff and painful big toe joint). Sarah has prescribed me a number of exercises, always carefully explained and always easy to incorporate into my daily routines. I like the way in which she focusses on a small number of exercises and works through them with you before deciding on the ones that are most suitable for you. I've seen real improvements in my health since seeing Sarah.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re really pleased to hear about the improvements you’ve seen and how clearly Sarah has supported you with tailored, manageable exercises. We’ll be sure to pass on your kind feedback to her.
Fantastic experience: Everyone at The Physios was extremely friendly and professional and I received first class and very effective treatment from Jon Grayson.
Thank you for your kind words. We’re delighted you felt so well looked after, and we’ll be sure to pass your feedback on to Jon and the team.
Fantastic experience: I have had a fantastic experience so far at The Physios and would highly recommend the practice to anyone. Everything from the booking process, to reception team, to the physiotherapy itself is professional, easy and fills you with trust. I travel over 45 minutes to an hour to come to the practice which I think is also an indication of how much I value the service I receive.
Thank you for the lovely review and recommendation. We’re really glad you’ve found the whole experience professional and easy, and we truly appreciate you travelling so far to see us. Your trust means a lot to our team.
Fantastic experience: After months of pain and immobility and no satisfaction from my GP, I contacted The Physios with multiple trigger fingers on both hands. I was given an appointment for a consultation within a week. The consultation was extremely thorough with the aid of ultrasound imaging. My physio Paul Hattam had a very empathetic and gentle manner and I was soon at ease, understanding perfectly what my treatment would entail. A precise injection into each problem site might be daunting but Paul set about his task reassuring me all the way and I felt very little. When one observes a procedure carried out with such a high level of skill it leads one to feel totally relaxed with a high degree of confidence in one’s treatment. My prognosis was somewhat under played. It was possible that my treatment may not be 100% successful and further treatment may be necessary. However, four weeks later I was completely pain free with full mobility restored to my fingers. When trying to muster the right words to express my gratitude, I simply cannot. Richard Dover.
Great result Richard - really happy about that! Thanks for taking the time to post the review - really appreciate that
Fantastic experience: I came across The Physios practice when I was looking for something to improve my knee injuries, I contacted the practice regarding PRP therapy which I had read about as a possible way to prolong the life if my knee and avoid a knee replacement. Everyone i spoke to at the Physio was pleasant and approachable. They too the time to explain the procedure and answer any questions I had giving me absolute confidence in there skills and knowledge. I would definitely recommend them.
Thanks Ed
Fantastic experience: I recently saw Paul for a knee issue I was desperate to sort out before an upcoming skiing trip, and I couldn’t be happier with the care I received. Paul was extremely professional from start to finish. He carried out a thorough assessment, including an ultrasound scan, which really reassured me that we were identifying the exact problem. My knee has improved significantly, and I feel confident heading back onto the slopes. Highly recommend Paul for anyone needing expert, efficient physiotherapy care.
Appreciate your review Harvey - get on those slopes and enjoy!
Fantastic experience: I came to Sarah Brownhill after 1.5 years of not being able to walk properly and lift properly in the gym, a consequence of severely hurting my back from deadlifting and not seeking professional treatment thinking it'll heal by itself. I had sciatica pain, muscle imbalances between my left and right leg, right glute amnesia. Sarah patiently listened to me and over the course of 3-4 months suggested rehab exercises with progressions for me to do. She fixed my walking, improved my left/right muscle imbalances and set me on the path to full recovery. Thanks Sarah!
Great review Gary - many thanks
Fantastic experience: The best physio practice in Sheffield. I am always greeted professionally and in a warm friendly way by reception staff, and the practitioners are incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. I have received physio and acupuncture there for a number of back, neck and shoulder pain and injuries over the years and the treatment has always been so well planned and executed, and always with a positive result. I have no hesitation in recommending the practice wholeheartedly.
Thanks for the accolade Lucy! We really value your comments
Fantastic experience: I’ve been attending the Physios for treatment on my frozen shoulder for the past few months, and my experience has been consistently excellent. The team are incredibly professional and clearly very knowledgeable in their field — I’ve felt confident in their expertise at every session. They’re also wonderfully friendly and welcoming, which really helped put me at ease during treatment. I’m absolutely sure that the improvement in my shoulder has only been achieved thanks to their thorough approach, and the follow-up care and guidance have been especially helpful in supporting my recovery between appointments. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for effective physiotherapy delivered with genuine care and professionalism.
Such a great review Jan - thanks and delighted to help your recovery!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been visiting The Physios since 2022 and have had a fantastic experience throughout. Paul, Johnny, and the entire team are skilled, patient, and genuinely invested in helping me recover from a variety of issues. I’ve really appreciated their use of ultrasound for accurate diagnosis, and the injections I received for my arthritic big toe have produced excellent results. Highly recommend their professional and caring approach.
Thanks Todd - long may it last!
Fantastic experience: Jon Grayson, provided exceptional physiotherapy treatment during my recovery from frozen shoulder. Jon demonstrated excellent clinical expertise, clearly explaining each step of the rehabilitation process. Thanks a lot.
Great review thanks Ketan
Fantastic experience: I have been going to the Physios for over a year now and I cannot praise all the team enough for the support and treatment they have provided to me both pre and post knee operation(and my physio Mia and also Issy had the opportunity to watch the operation!) They have kept me motivated and determined to make a good recovery. They all make you feel part of “the team’s family”! It’s a very personal and professional service they provide and I would highly recommend using them. Special thanks to Paul and Mia for all you have done to get me back on the road to recovery.
That's a lovely review Sheila - thanks for capturing so much and we've loved working with you
Fantastic experience: Super friendly professional service Calm atmosphere Reassuring and very helpful diagnosis AND very reasonable charge actually Great car park All user friendly
Thank you Isobel - delighted to be able to help
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic care received for my rehabilitation. All staff are welcoming and friendly.
Appreciate your comments Paul - many thanks
Fantastic experience: The Physios is very good. My physio Mia is excellent. She has provided a very thorough , efficient and professional diagnosis of my issue. This has been followed by a methodical and tailor made plan of exercises and manipulation for and of, the affected back area. She always fully explains my issue and how and why certain exercises will improve my back issue. She has great interpersonal skills too. Emily on reception is a delightful person. So bubbly and extremely professional . She is an excellent receptionist. I would definitely recommend The Physios, without any hesitation
Amazing review Frances - thank you.
Fantastic experience: Five Stars for all the staff at The Physios (including the lovely friendly receptionists), but special mention to Issy and Paul who had the professional curiosity and genuinely cared enough to look beyond the (incorrect) diagnosis I had been give elsewhere. I'm amazed at how quickly they got to the bottom of the issue that had been giving me pain for months, provided effective treatment and have set me up to return to my normal activities free of pain. Absolutely brilliant
Such a great review - thanks so much. Shared with the whole team (including our lovely receptionists!)
Fantastic experience: I have had a back issue since I was 19 and have been dismissed by others. When I went to Physio Works I was given a reason for my back for the first time in 21 years. Jon has since then helped me with strengthening and stretching exercises that has transformed my quality of life. I would recommend Jon 1000%! Also the staff are all so friendly and just wonderful!
We've never had a 1000% recommendation so that's some commendation for Jon! Love to hear about the improvements to your quality of life too. Thanks Beki
Fantastic experience: Mia has been excellent in the way she has treated me . I was in so much pain when I first saw her. Now it is amazing how I am now . Thank you Mia you are the best and I am so grateful to you. Rita Shepherd x
Thanks Rita - so glad you're made so much progress - you are right about Mia!
Fantastic experience: I visited the Physios after a metatarsal injury and working with Sarah has been absolutely brilliant. Everything was clearly explained and the whole journey, from rehab to return to running, was tailored. Her knowledge, care, and support throughout the entire process has been second to none. I cannot recommend Sarah and the Physios highly enough. Fantastic group of people!
Thanks so much for your great review Luke! Hopefully no more metatarsal injuries either!!
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend The Physios enough. I felt genuinely cared for by Safina immediately who was very efficient, yet creates a warm and friendly atmosphere. My problem was identified and treated by Paul who is so knowledgeable and an outstanding skilled professional. He was able to communicate and treat the issue straight away. A long term issue resolved in 24 hours.
Thanks Claire - our reception team are THE BEST So glad we could sort the problem quickly for you.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend The Physios. Members of the reception team have always been extremely welcoming. As a relatively newcomer to running, I'd developed a few niggles and decided to seek some advice. Jon was brilliant. He assessed my injuries and also my running form. He gave great practical advice along with targeted strengthening exercises to help me to prevent further injuries. He also suggested a realistic and achievable running plan to help me get back on track with my 5k runs. Thanks for a great professional service.
Ah that's great Clare - thanks for your review and keep on running! ♀️♀️♀️♀️
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend The Physios for the services they provide. I have received excellent treatment and advice for a number of years from Jon Grayson for my upper spinal issues. Many thanks Jon for the care you have provided and continue to provide for me. I am very grateful. Many thanks too for the helpful and friendly reception team.
Thanks Philip for your review - Jon and the team appreciate your comments
Fantastic experience: I’ve been treated by Izzy for a damaged shoulder, she’s fixed that, plus another couple of associated injuries as well, and all within a few months. Couldn’t be happier
We couldn't be happier with your review either Antony! Many thanks
Fantastic experience: My experience of every aspect of the care and service provided at The Physios is outstanding. All staff are warm and friendly and any queries handled promptly and efficiently. The specific physiotherapy treatment I had was detailed and thorough, giving me a good understanding of the problems I was experiencing and how to address and alleviate the problems. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the clinic to others.
We SO appreciate your kind feedback Diana - thank you so much
Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Paul, Issy and The Physios. It was so clear that they care about helping me to recover fully. Paul assessed my ankle sprain and did an ultrasound to determine the severity of the injury and decide on treatment. I came away with a much clearer understanding of my injury and had such a positive experience. Issy was extremely helpful in walking me through the first stage of rehab and explaining how I could progress the exercises over time. She helped me to feel relaxed and confident about recovery. The reception staff were so friendly and helpful - it's such a brilliant team!
Thanks so much Sarah - really pleased to get you started on your recovery! We'll be sharing your comments to the whole team - thanks again!
Fantastic experience: I’ve just completed a six session rehabilitation course with Issy Hatch. At each session I was taught 3 lots of exercises for me to do at home along with treatment for my knee. My knee feels much stronger and I’m able to move better and the pain is definitely reduced . Thanks Issy
Brilliant to hear your progress Christine - keep up the good work! Thanks for the 5 star review ☺️
Fantastic experience: Adam is an inspiring Personal Trainer! Following successful physiotherapy treatment from Sarah I was concerned that I had lost strength and flexibility and I knew that this could be an increasing issue as I get older. At her suggestion, Sarah made Adam aware of my history and areas of weakness. His bespoke training programme has had incredible results. After just a few sessions I am indeed stronger and more flexible and Adam has given me the confidence to know that I will continue to make progress. Thank you Adam!
Thanks Jules - that is definately a 5 star plus review! We'll share this with Sarah of course and so glad you've made such a good recovery. best wishes
Positive experience: I was referred to Sarah at the Physios, Hallamshire Hospital and am hugely grateful for the clear analysis of my problems and the guidance and exercises I was given. It’s made a massive difference. Thank you.
Thanks for your review Carole!
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient at The Physios for 3 years now. My experience is nothing more than amazing in helping me control the pain in both my knees with arthritis. I am under Paul Hattam, his care and treatment is fantastic. I am a lady of 85 years. I have been today for more treatment and removal of a large Baker cyst at the back of my left knee. Highly recommend able.
Thanks Irene for such a great review! Paul
Fantastic experience: I am 77 and was having trouble with my neck and chose The Physios, because I had first consulted the owner, Paul, thirty plus years ago and had found him to be an excellent and very ethical practitioner over many years. He was abroad when I needed an appointment in March 25 and Sarah was recommended to me. Sarah first treated my neck and subsequently stenosis and spondylitis in my lower back that was affecting my mobility and causing me a lot of leg and back pain. Treatment and an exercise program to strengthen my legs and stretch my leg and lower back muscles etc has enabled me to considerably improve my mobility, made me feel more stable when walking and has lessened the pain in my legs and back. I am not needing any further treatment at the moment and am “self-managing” with the exercise program. Sarah is an excellent practitioner; very encouraging and motivating and I highly recommend her.
Was it thirty years ago - really?! Thanks for this lovely review which we'll definately share with the whole team. Paul
Fantastic experience: Thank very much Miss Mia,you have done a brilliant job to me,im already recommend to my family and friends for brilliant physio Miss Mia it's.thank you again.
Miss Mia is delighted with your 5 star review!! Thanks Adrian
Fantastic experience: Attended this physiotherapy practice with a very painful knee. After three sessions and after following all the recommended exercises it's back to almost 100%. Issy was always calm and confident - I felt I was in very safe hands!
You were in very safe hands Huw and delighted to hear you're on the mend. Thanks for the review.
Fantastic experience: I have recently revisited The Physios for a HA injection in my big toe. All the staff including reception are so friendly, professional and welcoming. I was treated by Paul Hattam who made me feel completely at ease even though I am not fond of needles. The procedure itself is far less uncomfortable than anticipated and Paul talked me through the whole thing making sure I was ok. A week in and I already have improvement. I would not wish to go anywhere else and highly recommend.
Thanks Joanne. Reviews like yours do help to explain what to expect and I'm really glad you're experiencing improvement already!
Fantastic experience: Just completely my second treatment in the last few years with Jon Grayson for two totally separate injuries that I'd had ongoing problems with. Brilliant as ever, have recommended The Physios and Jon to several friends and will continue to do so. Reception staff always polite and friendly too and Jon has massively helped me on both occasions for sports related injuries. Thanks guys
Thanks Tom - really appreciated your review
Fantastic experience: After a severe compressed nerve shoulder injury, I was recommended 'The Physios' by GP. The helpful advice, treatments and dedication to fixing the problem was outstanding. Thanks to Issy, I was able to enjoy a long road trip across Europe and return to work in a matter of a few weeks. Fully recommend this team for any type of Physiotherapy should it be required!
That's so good to hear Stephen - thanks for your great review!
Fantastic experience: I am a repeat user of The Physios as, in 2023, Jon successfully treated my shoulder injury. In October 2025 I developed very painful sciatica which prevented me from participating in both golf and dancing activities. However Mia soon pinpointed the area in my back which was causing the pain. Mia’s two treatments together with the associated home exercises soon eased the pain and it was heartening to realise that I was on the road to recovery. The follow-up rehabilitation exercises in the studio proved to be very purposeful and I was also encouraged to use my 2023 resistance bands to increase my flexibility both in golf and in dancing. I have been grateful then for the expertise that both Jon and Mia have shown and thus I can recommend The Physios, not forgetting the members of the Reception Team who are always most welcoming and very helpful.
That's a great review Roger - thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: Excellent service at The Physios. I was suffering from a long-term injury but after an ultrasound with Paul and three sports physio appointments with Jon the issue was identified and remedied. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Thanks Chris for your very first 5 star Google review! Much appreciate the feedback
Fantastic experience: I recently had treatment from Sarah for achilles tendonitis. Sarah is very professional, helpful and friendly - with her advice I managed to get on top of the problem very quickly. I would certainly recommend Sarah and the whole team at The Physios.
Thanks Ann - glad you're on top of it! Really appreciate your commendation
Fantastic experience: I would definitely recommend. I was in considerable discomfort with sciatica when I saw their Google reviews and booked an appointment. The staff are lovely and the advice and treatment I received has seriously improved my condition. Thank you. I really appreciate it.
Great that you found us through Google reviews and now you've got your own story - thanks for taking the time to post a review of your own.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended- goal oriented, professional physiotherapy business- Jon Grayson in particular made the difference by use of intensive physiotherapy shortly after the trauma and damage of a trimalleolar ankle fracture - outcome resulted in regaining full mobility and maintenance ever since!
Brilliant! That's what we like to hear! Thanks Angela
Fantastic experience: Called the Physios after reading other reviews and was so glad I did. From the very first telephone call to the last visit I cannot fault this practice. I have received first class treatment by first class people. Every step of the way I was given information as to my diagnosis, what was needed, when it was going to happen, how it would happen and how much it would cost. The physio I saw was Johnny Cassidy and I cannot thank him enough for helping me with a knee problem. All the staff have been brilliant throughout and I will definitely use the practice again in the future if I need any further treatment. Would highly recommend this practice without any hesitation. Once again I had the need to visit this fabulous establishment for help with another knee problem. Just to say many many thanks for all the expert help, care, assistannce and treatment I received from Mia. Professional and friendly in every way possible. As my previous review, five star service from a five star team. Highly recommended.
Thanks so much for your review Carl - I'll pass it around all the team - the reception team do such a great job and it is really nice when they get the appreciation too.
Fantastic experience: If there was 10 stars i would award this company 10. Paul and his team went above and beyond to get me right to participate in the Great North Run. They certainly went the extra mile, I can't praise them enough. Thank you the Physio team.
We were so pleased to hear you'd smashed it Miriam - big congratulations to you! Thanks so much for the 5 star review
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at the Physios. Sarah, my physio, was both very professional and sympathetic, and navigated my particularly difficult situation, where I was living half abroad and half in Sheffield. She was incredibly reassuring and a consistent health care provider at a time when I really needed one. I saw lots of improvements in my condition due to my treatment with her. The reception staff at The Physios were also particularly friendly and incredibly organised, especially Emily and Safina. I wouldn't hesitate in the future to get treatment there again.
Thanks for the review Lucy - Sarah features regularly in our reviews (no surprise there!) and it's really nice to see our reception team praised too - they are the best for sure!
Fantastic experience: I’m so glad I found Issy! She is very dedicated and caring in her treatment. I used to think that my back, shoulder, and neck pain would never fully recover, but thanks to Issy, it actually did! She also taught me useful stretching exercises and how to maintain the correct sitting posture in daily life, which made my recovery even faster. After just a few sessions, I was completely healed. Highly recommend her!
Thanks for the 5 stars Sheryl. We will be sure to pass your thanks to Issy too.
Fantastic experience: Amazing work from The Physios, pinpointing my problem within the first consultation; with really practical and spot-on exercises for me to take away after each subsequent physio session. I'm now doing the exercises regularly, am free of sciatic pain, with much more movement. Highly recommended.
Thank for taking the time to leave a review Matt. We really appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: Johnny played a huge part in helping my son get back to playing National League Hockey following knee surgery. His rehabilitation programme was designed specifically to get him back playing , Johnny also took time to speak about goal setting all the way through as recovery progressed. Thank you I would highly recommend Johnny to anyone wanting to return to sport after injury.
Thanks for the review Steve. Really pleased that your son is back scoring goals - even if it is for 'the other side'!
Fantastic experience: Incredibly thankful for the hard work and efforts of Sarah. A rather debilitating issue made work and fitness unenjoyable, but her expertice soon corrected the problem. To Sarah, Johnny and all the team, thank you. Unlike any other physiotherapy institution I've visited... outstanding.
Thanks for the review Joe. Really pleased we've got you back to sport and Crossfit.
Fantastic experience: I arrived at The Physios with a very painful left shoulder. My sleep was disrupted by the pain and everyday tasks challenging. Johnny suggested shockwave treatment as a way forward. I was somewhat apprehensive by this . However after just four treatments I am have a pain free fully functioning shoulder. Fantastic care and treatment . I fully recommend shockwave therapy . Thank you
Thanks for the 5 stars Julie. We really appreciate you taking the time to leaver a review.
Fantastic experience: Issy and the team did a great job in helping me get back to playing football after I tore an ankle ligament, the reception team were also super friendly and helpful, thank you!
Great news that you are back playing football Christian. Thanks for the review - we really appreciate it.
Fantastic experience: I have been a patient of Sarah’s at the physios for about 2 months. She’s not only an excellent professional in her technique but also extremely talented with the care of her patients. Sarah listens with great attention and understands the worries and limitations. She establishes goals to achieve that are superb at motivating her patients. The first appointment is critical and I felt that she ‘got me’ I was quite daunted (previous cancer patient) but she put me at ease and we started working straight away. Sarah sets some goals and then helps you to smash them. I never thought I would regain motility of my shoulder so fast. I know I’m not the only patient thinking this way about Sarah… because we talk in the waiting room!
That is a brilliant review Irene - thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: Sarah has been a great support to my daughter. Helping to reduce her leg pain and gain greater flexibility and strength through a series of graded exercises. Very welcoming, knowledgeable and thorough. Would highly recommend.
So nice to be able to pass such warm comments to Sarah - thanks for the review.
Fantastic experience: I went to Sarah for over a year, and during that time was able to resolve the issues with my knee and then improved my running technique. I am grateful to Sarah for all her support, and for humouring my bad puns whenever I came for a session.
You could have save a pun or two for the review Nick ! Thanks for the great feedback
Fantastic experience: Jon and the team at The Physio's have been phenomenally helpful. Giving me answers to a 15+ year knee issue that was previously misdiagnosed. Their ultrasound scan highlighted exactly what the problem was and a course of shockwave therapy (along with progressive physio exercises) has radically improved the pain and functionality of my knee. From the pleasant staff on reception to the various physio's I've seen throughout my treatment, the service has been exceptional. Can't thank you guys enough.
Great review Ryan - this will be a good review to share as you've mentioned the whole team - thanks
Fantastic experience: Lovely people and great service. I went to Sarah concerned that my arthritic knees might not be up to a trip to Paris and Disney with the Grandkids. She did an assessment and suggested that HA injections from Paul and Jonny may help. They were brilliant and significantly reduced the pain and discomfort within 24 hours. The Disney trip was a great success and no knee pain. 3 months on, and with follow up strengthening exercises from Sarah, still feeling the benefit. Thank you Physios.
Thanks John “Sounds like your knees really went from Zero to Hero — Disney magic meets physio care!”
Fantastic experience: Massive thank you to Issy at The Physios - she has helped me through plantar fasciitis in the last few months and got me back running again! Feel stronger than ever and now have a healthier, more balanced approach to running, cross training and strength training. Very happy and would highly recommend!
Glad you're back running Helen and thanks for such a great review - Issy and the whole team really appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: Just wanted to say another huge thanks to The Physios, this time Jon.... I've always found then to be professional, encouraging and keen to help you through the 'process' back to flexibility... thanks again .
So good to read your review Fran and that you're back to full flexibility!
Fantastic experience: Both me and my brother found myself here at a similar time, and we both experienced a very high standard of care. Jon combined his work with strength building exercises so as to help maintain my back long term, which has been brilliant. All the staff have been kind and professional, and me and my brother are both feeling much better. Thank you!
Thanks Lisa - should your review count twice do you think? We're proud to have Jon on our team and we're glad you spotted our amazing reception team too!
Fantastic experience: Walked in March 2025 with excruciating nerve pain going down my leg from a recent low back injury that was struggling to heal after nearly 18 months. Johnny identified the root cause of the problem and, with a combination of therapy during appointments, rehab exercises prescribed to do at home, and re-learning how to deadlift (!), we had my back fixed by May. I have since gone from strength to strength (literally). Back injuries are so debilitating - mentally and physically -, so I'm incredibly grateful that in a very short space of time I have been able to resume strength training and athletic activity. Thank you!
Thanks Scott for telling your story of recovery - delighted to have got your back fixed too. Keep going with the deadlifts!
Fantastic experience: The Physios is simply the best physiotherapy practice in Sheffield. I saw Johnny for 8 months for a back problem, and he was always knowledgable, clear and decisive in his treatment. My back is much better and Johnny has supported me to invest in my own recovery with exercises and information.
We think "simply the best" has its first appearance in our Google reviews! Thanks Joy!
Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend this practice enough. The service they provide is second to none, a very warm welcome from the reception staff and expertises from the physios. This was my second set of sessions for a neck /nerve problem to help manage the pain I get down my neck back and arm. Highly recommend Jon, he was very thorough great advice with coping techniques and pain relief, and really nice guy! 5/5 from me!!! Thank you xx
Love your review Joanne and your commendation for this second round of treatment. All our team read and value your feedback so much - thank you!
Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Jonny highly enough. Following my HTO surgery, he has been nothing short of outstanding in guiding my rehabilitation. From day one, Jonny created a structured programme that challenged me at just the right level, progressing me steadily and safely. His professionalism, attention to detail, and deep understanding of the recovery process have completely turned my outcome around — I’ve gone from uncertainty about the surgery’s success to feeling stronger, more confident, and fully on track. Jonny listens carefully, keeps my goals at the forefront, and makes thoughtful adjustments to each session to ensure I’m progressing without risk. He is polite and encouraging, helps maintain my motivating and thanks to his expertise and support, I’ve achieved results I wasn’t sure were possible. I really couldn’t recommend hi highly enough.
Really pleased your recovery was so good - thanks for the review!
Fantastic experience: Exceptional care and treatment when I attended 2 hour long Ultrasound appointments with Paul Hattam earlier this year The hands on examination was exemplary,and,was very thorough and unhurried with a full history taken After each consultation Paul kindly wrote to the GP surgery This in turn prompted a further. series of clinical investigations,which eventually led to my hospital admission . I now receive out patient care and have a clear diagnosis and care plan Paul I can't thank you enough When you said we need to get to the bottom of this .Thanks to your letters and mine we did!!
Really appreciate your feedback John. With very best wishes, Paul
Fantastic experience: Good evening Paul The knee is really good,left it for 5 day while on holiday and then did a 2 mile slow run followed with a 1.5 mile run 3 days later with no pain.It feels more stable and I can do strengthening exercises which I couldn’t do before. Easing my way back into running, and have more confidence in the knee now. Thanks for everything and I will be in touch for a top up at a later date.
Thanks Keith - encouraging early signs always welcome
Fantastic experience: Mia at the Physios helped me a lot with my achilles tendinopathy. My gate pattern is almost normal and though the pain returns at times I have been able to adjust and work within my pain threshold and manage the difficulty. I would definitely recommend the Physios.
Thanks Graham - appreciate your commendation and delighted you're back to more normal activity!
Fantastic experience: Having recently undergone a total hip replacement and performed all the hospital-prescribed physio exercises up to the point where they were no longer particular challenging, I thought it would be a good idea to check back in with Mia to ensure that my recovery was progressing well. It turned out that it was, but Mia suggested that I sign up for a course of six rehabilitation sessions in the practice's studio. I'm really glad she did! Mia pushed me to try exercises that I never would have dared try without expert supervision, and I now feel stronger and more confident than I've felt for several years. All along, Mia was very supportive and encouraging, and tailored everything to my needs, abilities and circumstances. I now feel really excited about the future and what I am capable of doing. I will probably need to have the other hip replaced at some point in the not too distant future, and I can't say I'm particularly looking forward to it - but I know where I will be going for rehabilitation afterwards! A big thank you to Mia (and also to Issy for cheering me on from the sidelines!).
Such a great review Sally - thanks so much! Mia and Issy have very much developed our studio rehab programme so they really do deserve the credit! So pleased you've recovered so well. We'll be here for next time when that comes round.
Fantastic experience: I always go to this practise when I need support. The team are all so friendly (hats off to the reception staff!) and Issy has always been so helpful. I’ve been there numerous times due to a back issue and she’s always fantastic - friendly, knowledgable and goes above and beyond. Thank you folks!
Thank you! Your review has been shared around the team and much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: This is the best physiotherapy clinic I've ever visited. Jon is fantastic, combining hands-on work with exercises and practical guidance. What I particularly appreciate is that he works to understand your individual issue holistically, rather than just focusing on treating a particular area. The physios is a warm and welcoming place and the staff are always amazing. The fact that I no longer live full-time in Sheffield but still come to the physios tells its own story!
Such an amazing review Corinne - thanks so much!
Fantastic experience: I was recommended to visit Sarah following 2 surgeries to correct prolapsed discs, of which had been unsuccessful. I had been in pain and severely impaired in my work as a yoga teacher for 3 years and was extremely anxious to begin using my body again. Sarah provided such a person centred approach which took my body, unique line of work and anxieties into consideration. I have experienced physio before in which I was measured against the general population and their requirements in terms of mobility and strength which did not meet my professional or personal needs. Sarah's approach was extremely knowledgeable, measured and specific which I really valued. So much so that I will continue to seek her advice long after my recovery journey concludes. Thank you Sarah for helping me to feel at home in my body again - priceless.
Thanks Sarah for sharing your story and the difference Sarah has made. We love getting feedback like this... but we love more hearing about the difference the treatment has made to you - so thank you and stay fit and well
Fantastic experience: Came to Jon with a running injury in my foot- possible stress fracture. In my consultation he was extremely thorough, providing me with strengthening exercises and a return to running plan. In my follow up appointment I went on the treadmill so he could assess my running form. This was extremely helpful as it pointed out some key areas of improvements. Improvements I can now incorporate into my running routine and to help prevent future injury. As someone who had never been to a physio before I would highly recommend The Physios in Sheffield, I definitely feel more confident to get back to running. Thank you Jon!
Honoured that your first experience of physio was with us!! Great review Millie - thanks so much for the recommendation too!
Fantastic experience: I arrived at The Physios basically 'broken' with unbearable pain in my neck, shoulder, arm and fingers. Straight away I was treated with care and understanding. Jon consulted with my GP to get me on the right pain pathway and asked a colleague, Sarah,to begin a short course of acupuncture as I was in too much pain for hands on therapy. This brought the pain down to a level which I could tolerate. Over the last 2-3 months Jon has worked with me to recover from the slipped disc in my neck and I can't thank him enough. I have decided to continue physio with Jon to try now to improve my ongoing problems with sciatica which I have struggled with for years. I feel like I'm getting my life back! Thank you to everyone, including the lovely reception staff who are always so friendly. 5 stars from me! Highly recommended.
Thanks for such a full review - we'll make sure the whole team see it including our reception team (who are amazing!)
Fantastic experience: Not only did advice and physiotherapy from Jon ameliorate the pain from my deteriorating hip joint, but just as importantly, Jon provided the guidance that it was time, the assurance that hip replacement surgery would be ok and the support afterwards to get me back to being fully functional. I'm now able to let Steve Borthwick know I'm once again available for selection.
I'm sure Steve will be getting you as soon as he knows! Thanks for the review Mike!
Fantastic experience: Written on behalf of Karen Cockayne. After suffering from a 2nd frozen shoulder, it was sorted out by Paul and Johnny. Both went above and beyond for me and are very professional and knowledgable! I’m now pain free and can move my arm fully and use it normally again! Thank you both! Would highly recommend the physios!!
Thank you for the review B! So delighted with your recovery - well done and keep it up (literally!).
Fantastic experience: I have been a customer of The Physios for about 15 months and have been seen for a couple of different and unrelated issues to do with my Achilles and my lower back. I've undergone shockwave therapy with great success and the pain I'd had in my lower back for ~12 years has gone with a simple course of regular physio and accessible, easy-to-do-at-home exercises. So I think it's fair to say that these guys know what they're doing, and this is an excellent practice that is well-worth the investment (both in terms of financially and in time). I've been so emboldened by the success that I now have monthly sports massages to help keep on top of pesky niggles. The practice itself is well-presented, friendly, progressive and feels like a nice place to be. I have recommended the practice to lots of friends and I recommend it to anyone reading this review!
That’s an amazing review Cat - thanks so much sharing your experience and for recommending us so wholeheartedly!
