Ian Dyer Published on Google 1 week ago

Fantastic experience: Great advice and reassurance from friendly team

Mike Tinker Published on Google 1 week ago

Fantastic experience: I went to see Kevin and Lucy they were brilliant and literally bent over backwards to get me out of a sticky situation with my upper back and shoulders

Melanie Burn Published on Google 1 week ago

Fantastic experience: I had been suffering from back pain for quite some time and had started to become progressively worse. Kevin was recommended to me by a friend and I am so glad I made the appointment. Kevin put me at ease and was able to pinpoint straight away where and what the issue was and explaining all the time as he provided treatment. A few sessions later and along with some exercises to do at home, my back was much improved. I highly recommend Kevin and Athletica.

Tom Atkinson Published on Google 3 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: Just finished a round of appointments with Kevin and made such an improvement over this time, wish I'd gone to him sooner! Very personable and would highly recommend

Keith Schooling Published on Google 3 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Athletica Physiotherapy high enough. My recent sessions with Lucy to enable me to recover my mobility after a replacement knee operation were brilliantly effective. The advice, targeted exercises and general encouragement were just what I needed. Yes, you do have to work to achieve success but it was worth it. I can now walk without pain and cycle normally. The operation was in Sept 25 and now in April 26, thanks to Lucy’s input, normal life has been restored!

St John Harris Published on Google 3 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: Lucy couldn't have been more thorough in treating my ankle injury with individually tailored exercises provided through the Rehab Guru app based on her expert assessment. Excellent support and service!

K Packman Published on Google 3 weeks ago

Fantastic experience: I was recommended Kevin at Athletica as I was dissatisfied and lacked confidence in my NHS plan following an Achilles tendon rupture. Kevin transformed my attitude from the first consultation. A really clear plan, an honest appraisal and a good rapport. I just finished my time with him after 5 months of work. I have just completed an outdoor 5k run some 6-8 weeks ahead of schedule. Hugely grateful and impressed.

Tom Vass Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Lucy was brilliant at getting me over my cycling injury and her follow up support was very much appreciated. Any future injuries I will be going back to get sorted.

Gary Scott Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic staff. Could not recommend them enough. Lucy was great, so knowledgeable and instantly made you feel at ease and very positive towards your treatment. Very quickly identified the issue, explained everything very clearly and in terms you can understand. Provided clear exercises with videos, to help get me back to running and sport. If you need some rehab or even a tune up, then I would absolutely give Athletica Health a call.

Charlotte Cooper Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Lucy is so skilled and knowledgeable in what she does! I went to see her due to backache after someone recommended her to me. Lucy listened to the problems I was having and helped to get me sorted. She fully explained everything she was doing and the reasoning behind my back problems. She also sent me recommendations of pilates to do at home to help me. Thank you Lucy!

Phoebe Jones Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Vani is incredible. I have stage 4 endometriosis growing on my bowel, behind my uterus and on various ligaments. This has left me in constant, complex pain all down the left side of my body for the past year. Vani has worked tirelessly to help significantly reduce my pain particularly in my hip, piriformis and left leg and I’ve even been able to reintroduce some gentle exercise thanks to her. Not only she is talented, she is also so lovely and has been amazing during a really tough time. I can’t recommend her enough.

Annabel Anscomb Published on Google 2 months ago

christopher m Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: I visited Kevin a few weeks ago for a gym related chest/shoulder injury. I couldn't recommend him more, he took time to listen to what had happened, evaluated what had the issue was and provided me with treatment there and then and gave me a list of exercises to do at home. I'm now back in the gym with no pain anymore, money well spent, would definitely recommend.

James Read Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing service as always. Lucy identified the issue with my shoulder, and it was completely better within 8 weeks. It actually feels better than it did before the injury.

Abbie Pooleman Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: Lucy was fantastic. She immediately put me at ease and carried out a really thorough assessment to get to the root of my issue. The exercises she gave me were clear and effective, and my problem resolved much quicker than I expected. Lucy’s very knowledgeable and shared lots of helpful information, including extra exercises to do before skiing, which I really appreciated. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for a skilled and supportive physio.

Andrew Grace Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: I strongly recommend Katy for clinical Pilates. She develops personalised programs to meet specific needs which make a real difference. She is brilliant!

Gary Hope Published on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Over the past few months Vani has treated me for various calf and achilles issues. She has always been very thorough, friendly, painstaking and dedicated. She has made all the difference with her treatments and rehab plans - I would recommend both her and Athletica without hesitation.

Matt Walpole (Viking Plastering) Published on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Working in the plastering industry has put a toll on my body, mainly my back. I've had a couple of adjustments from Athletica and each one has made me feel good as new. My most recent trip I had the pleasure of Lucy taking care of me during my adjustment. Great knowledge, lovely to speak to and very informative when questions were asked. 5 star rating and will be using for many years to come.

Janet Lee Published on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Lovely physio who has sorted out my shoulder really quickly. Will continue doing the exercises to strengthen it so I can get back to swimming again.

Rob Allison Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Excellent service, friendly, supportive and professional. Kev helped rehab a long-standing shoulder injury and a recently torn meniscus in my knee. He helped me to understand the cause of the injuries and how I could take some control to resolve them and return back to normal activities. Recommended for everyone.

Louise Fairley Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Vani at Athletica is a fantastic physio - she has been my saviour over recent weeks and I'm very grateful of the care and treatment she has provided to me.

Megan Toerien Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Amazingly good massage and treatment from Connor for painful neck and back. I highly recommend Athletica Health physios.

Josh Halsall Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Connor for about 6 months for a sports injury, and he’s massively helped improve and strength the muscles around it helping to get back running. He’s very knowledgable, friendly and great at what he does.

Rebecca Chalkley Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: I am so glad I found Athletica Health Physiotherapy! There is no way I would have been able to complete my first marathon without Vani, she got me over that finish line. She was behind me every step of the way, from helping me navigate a sprained ankle mid training block, advice about strength and conditioning, and regular sports massages. She put me at ease the moment I walked into clinic and forever grateful. One hundred percent reccomend!

Kate Wells Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Connor has been very professional & provided excellent care, treatment & feedback. I have made great progress improving the range of movement in my shoulder & would not hesitate to return if necessary.Thank you.

Nigel Tottie Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Booked an appointment with Lucy as I had spinal surgery 5 weeks ago and was given little direction by the hospital physio about building up to be able to get back to cycling. Lucy was really good, got my incredibly stiff back moving and explained how best to start exercising to build up my back and core strength, so I can get riding again! Back for my next appointment next week. Excited to get moving!

Josh Kenyon Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Saw Connor after dislocating my knee cap and it's feeling back to normal after two weeks. Thank you !!

Angela Ryan Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Saw Connor 4 times for a knee problem. Very professional but also very personable. Can’t honestly say I enjoyed the strength tests, but it was good to see a visual representation of the progress that was made. Highly recommend him.

Ziggys Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend highly enough - Genuinely life changing experience with Kevin and the team. Persistent back pain solved within a week, with tools, techniques and education given to manage against reoccurrence but also strategies on how to manage issues if they do repeat. Just wish i had gone to see Kevin 20 years ago (ok he might have still been in short trousers back then, but you get the point)

Sarah Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: I went to see Kevin after struggling for months with a sore elbow which began to impact on my daily life. He diagnosed it as tennis elbow and explained what had happened to my body and the treatment he recommended. After a few weeks of doing the exercises, the symptoms had improved. I saw Kevin again and he assured me that I had made progress and although it will be a long recovery if I keep on with my treatment I should be pain and injury free. I especially appreciated the way Kevin explained everything and made me feel confident about recovering from injury. Thanks for helping me tackle this. I just wish I'd gone to see Kevin sooner!

Jillian Whitham Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely recommend Connor, as well as being super helpful and supportive in my program to rehab an unfortunate sprained muscle, I felt he had an outstanding ability to listen and really understand the bigger picture. He offered helpful insights and ideas to support my training in general and I am hopeful for my future races/events!

Paul Raidersgolf Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Pulled my lower back. A couple of sessions with Connor feel so much better. Very professional and talks you through everything. Would return. Paul

Alison Garnett Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: I'm really pleased that friends recommended Athletica to me when pains began in my right hip. I was a little apprehensive about my first visit to a physiotherapist, but Dr Vani Grewal was very pleasant and easy to talk to. Her assessment of the problem was very thorough, and the programme of exercises that she prescribed brought about an improvement surprisingly quickly. Three weeks on, the pains have gone and I am back to normal - and I have an exercise plan that I can use to try to minimise the risk of problems developing in the future.

Tom Rance Published on Google 7 months ago

Matt Carter Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Lucy is the best! Always gets me back on track.

Ruth Kavanagh Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Vani is nothing short of amazing! I have seen her 4/5 times for a shoulder complaint and as a busy Mum of 2 she has given me flexible, achievable exercise and stretch routines that fit my lifestyle. I am now equipped to keep my shoulder niggle at bay and know what triggers the discomfort. Even though I have been discharged, I will definitely book back in for the odd appointment to keep on top of things - if not for my shoulder, then for the lovely chats! Thank you for all your help!

Lewis Meginson Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: - Seen Kevin in the past with a back injury, after seeing multiple physiotherapist and drs before hand wasn't getting anywhere. Made instant progress after an appointment with Kevin, and was amazed that within a short period of time I was back to my heavy job and weight training. - Just recently got tendinopathy in my biceps after over exerting the tendons. Got booked in with Kevin and same again had me back to it in no time despite been told 6-8 weeks by GP prior. Been to lots of physios in the past but none compare to here. Will go nowhere else, highly recommend, can't thank you enough

alex duckitt Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: I saw Connor for 2 physiotherapy sessions to diagnose and treat my knee pain. Very professional service but we also had a good laugh. He did in depth strength testing and explained the results to help me understand my weaknesses. Booked in follow up to re-test strength and for some muscle release work. Fantastic sessions, knee pain has now gone and I have a set of exercises to do going forward. I would highly recommend booking in with Connor if you have any musculoskeletal problems!

S S Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Dr Vani was brilliant! For 2 months I’d had a constant pain in my shoulder, my arm felt weak all the time and I could no longer lie on that side to sleep. After one session - the pain was no longer constant. Amazing! And meant I could get back to life without pain as a constant distraction. The take home exercises moved my pain from just in the evenings to non-existent. Thank you very much, very good price for what it’s done for me

Tracey Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I took my 88 year old Dad for the first time around 5 weeks ago for pain in his back and leg (sciatica) From first meeting Vani we knew we were in the right place seeing the right person. Vani was so friendly each time we went to the appointments. Nothing was any trouble. She knew exactly what was wrong right from the start. Wouldn’t hesitate to go back here and request to have her for any further treatment. My Dad was very worried but Vani put him at ease each time and sorted him out you could see the difference. Thankyou so much. Vani is a credit to your business

Imogen Bowles Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Lucy treated our son who was suffering with a stress response in his back due to pace bowling at cricket. She was very knowledgeable about the injury itself and the mechanism involved with bowling. She has helped him become pain free very quickly and then went the extra mile when handing over to his coaches. Lucy also has a wonderful bedside manner and treated him with just the right amount of compassion and understanding, helping him deal with news he didn't want to hear and explaining at just the right level why he couldn't rush the treatment or return to sport too quickly. We couldn't have asked for more.

Imogen this is an amazing review, Lucy is excellent working with kids and thanks for pointing out how we liase with the wider support team, this is something we are really proud of. It makes such a difference to the overall support of our young athletes.

Angela Symonds Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: My partner is recovering from a complicated fracture of my lower leg. To help get back dancing on a stage and horse riding he has had a few sessions with Lucy. These have really made a difference. She has shown a good understanding of what is needed, provided advice and encouragement, and given targeted exercises tailored to achieve results. I would wholeheartedly recommend Lucy, who as well as all the professionalism is a nice and positive person.

Craig Eaton Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I've continually had an outstanding experience at Athletica Physiotherapy, and I can't recommend Dr. Vani highly enough. From the very first session, she conducted a thorough and thoughtful assessment, taking the time to understand not just my symptoms but also the biomechanical stresses exerted on my body as a climber. Her expertise, treatment and advice have been instrumental to improving my mobility and helping me feel my best so I can perform in my sport. The rehab plans she provided were clear, personalised, and easy to follow, making a real difference in my recovery and performance. I'm incredibly grateful for her support and knowledge—a professional who genuinely cares about her patients' progress. If you're an athlete or just looking to move and feel better, I highly recommend booking with Dr. Vani at Athletica.

Fantastic experience: So pleased we have found Athletica Health (recommended by a friend), Lucy is fantastic and has treated my two children from sporting niggles! Understanding and amazing knowledge, Lucy diagnosed what what happening with muscles, ligaments and bones etc within no time, I can highly recommend. Both children found their mobility of movement improve after their first appointment. Lucy recommended and forwarded some great exercises to continue with their recovery to full movement, to be able to enjoy playing/doing the sport they love, Don't look any further, an amazing clinic and physios.

Alex Harrison Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I recently consulted Conor at Athletica Physio because of pain in my lower back. Conor was great - he spent time to listen and make sure he understood my experience with the pain and also what I wanted to get from the treatment. I obviously wanted to get rid of the pain but also a set of exercises and stretches to keep me pain free in the future. He delivered on both in just 3 sessions. Super professional, knowledgeable and friendly. I’d definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I've had issues with by sacroiliac joint and so I went to see Katy. She was immediately able to give me some answers about questions I'd had over some long standing issues and immediately put my mind at ease. It’s been a really enlightening year building strength through Pilates based practice and learning how to improve and also manage pain and discomfort. I really recommend Katy, she has been absolutely brilliant.

Fantastic experience: Kevin has treated me for a shoulder injury that was making swimming painful. His expertise and skill was obvious from the start and I particularly valued how he listened so carefully to my issues. I also really appreciated how reassuring and positive he has been. Treatment has been largely exercise based and after three months I'm well on the way to complete recovery. Highly recommended!

jean williams Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Lucy has been treating me for back pain which for me is a long term problem. After approximately 6 spaced out visits I have begun to feel a change. Actually almost immediately I found I had more movement in my back and hips, and my lower back in general feels more at ease than it has for a good while. Apart from being very professional and excellent at what she does she is also a lovely person who is easy to get along with and will put you at ease.

Ashley Bilham Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Kevin is fantastic. He is very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. I’d had pain for a long time which Kevin was able to properly identify and then help me re-stabilise the area, meaning I could get on the road to recovery.

Joseph Plevey Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended physio - got me back on the football pitch and hopefully to football college in the USA. Kevin was recommended to me by the surgeon at Nuffield Health following ACL & ALL reconstruction and meniscus repair as my plans to get a football scholarship had been shattered following injury and needed to get myself match ready again as quickly as possible in a controlled manner following surgery. Whilst a physio was included within the surgery my consultant felt I would benefit from Kevin's specialist expertise with professional footballers and other sports people. Kevin worked me hard and took me through a detailed recovery programme making necessary adjustments along the way. He used his contacts to ensure I had all the support I needed to get me where I needed to be, which I was really grateful for. Not only did he help me with the physical side of recovery but also with my confidence paying particular attention to my mental health at all times. He always demonstrated care and brought humour to our sessions. My dad sat in on the sessions too and having also had a meniscus tear in his knee and a course of physio in the past, said he had learnt a lot from Kevin's sessions and having been seen by a number of physios previously, confirmed he was the best he had encountered.

Sarah Thompson Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant service and Kev is just so super helpful and knowledgeable. They have helped my son recover from a pars defect on the bottom of his spine and with their expertise and advice over the past few months this has been achieved and we are so grateful for everything. I would certainly recommend Athletica Health for any physio needs, Kev and the team are awesome.

Simon Jubb Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Hi there - I’ve had appointments with Katey on several occasions for different injuries : to my wrist and foot ligament injury. Katey always listens very carefully to the background of the injury and provides a thorough assessment. She has extensive and expert knowledge and skills on what is needed to recover the injury but always talks it through in a relaxed way which makes it easy to understand. I’m always confident that the work she does and the programme she designs will support my recovery- I would highly recommend Katey to any future clients.

john lewins Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: We have attended Pilates with Katy for over a year and enjoy her class very much. She is a very helpful, patient and considerate instructor. The class is small enough so that Katy can monitor and help everyone as required. She puts you at ease and there is no pressure to push yourself too much . Thanks Katy

Fantastic experience: My husband has had back and shoulder problems for years, and attending 1-to-1 and then group classes with Katy has been absolutely transformative for him. It convinced me (who hates exercise) to start attending weekly classes, which I've been doing for 10 months now, and I love them! Katy is a wonderful teacher, really friendly, patient, and encouraging

Eleanor Jones Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I saw Kevin for physio to my shoulder following a bike accident and clavicle fracture with subsequent shoulder impingement. He worked with me for 6 months to get the shoulder moving again. Kevin is so knowledgeable, and I left with a whole load of exercises and tips for continued shoulder health. He is a lovely friendly chap to boot!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Katie’s Pilates classes every week for over a year now and am so pleased with the progress.

Fantastic experience: After being let down by the NHS with massive waiting times I contacted Athletica in hopes someone could help me . After an initial visit the same week Katy Identified my problems quickly and was able to give me the right exercises to start to help me deal with my condition . I ad weekly appointments with Katy of several weeks there after and by progressive development of an exercise program Katy freed my back up a great deal . Since following the advice given and maintaining the structured exercise program provided my back pain is now manageable. I am back at work and feel confident that using the tools supplied I will stay motivated to manage my condition in the future … I would be happy to recommend this facility to anyone in my position! …. I also know that if required I can call on Athletica to help quickly .. Top class service and great value . …FYI, I am still waiting for an NHS appointment months later. So I Thank Katy for helping me so quickly and effectively. A++++++ .

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Katy at Athletica for about a year now to help with chronic muscle tightness and pain, alongside the aftereffects of nerve damage from a slipped disc. She's always great at figuring out the source of the problem and ways of alleviating the issue. I've been to several different physios over the years, and I can honestly recommend Katy.

Fantastic experience: Kevin is a consummate professional and helped me alleviate a rotator cuff injury within three visits - with a combination of exercises and massage treatments. The measuring equipment that Kevin uses provide clear visual displays of progress and verify your recovery. Can’t recommend Kevin enough superb practitioner Neil Manaley

Fantastic experience: Brilliant level of service, Kevin identified the problem quickly and gave me a clear and concise recovery plan to get me back running again pain free. Highly recommend to all.

Fantastic experience: Fabulous treatment once again from Kevin Abel. His approach is so encouraging supportive and real. And he’s got me back to pain free exercising 3 times now for different complaints. I’d recommend to anyone!

Fantastic experience: I’m so pleased a friend recommended Lucy and I would encourage anyone with physio problems to visit her. Lucy identified the cause of my problem in minutes and was so supportive. My mobility, strength and pain have all improved. I can only thank Lucy for her help and highly recommend her.

Fantastic experience: In 2016, in my late 50's, I severely fractured my L. tibial plateau. I was given exercises by the NHS but learned later that these were designed to get me "back to basics". Since then, I have persevered with the legacy of the fracture - tired muscles, achey joint - and accepted that my age was a factor in the discomfort. Late last year an ankle injury to the same leg left me feeling hopeless and lacking in confidence. Lucy quickly diagnosed the problem with my ankle and took the history of injury to that leg into account. She prescribed exercises that cleared up the ankle issue within days, and which are continuing to benefit my knee and my back. Lucy's knowlege of the internal structures of the body is phenomenal. Thanks to her, these physical improvements have also had a beneficial effect on my mental health - realising that I have some control, I feel more confident, energetic and hopeful.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Connor at athletica. Went to see him with a very painful neck and after just one appointment the range of movement I had got back and the improvement in my pain was amazing. He gave me an exercise and stretching program as well as showing me self-management strategies in case it happened again. Wouldn’t hesitate to come back again if needed!

Fantastic experience: I had a bad knee injury, which had been ongoing for a lot of months due to work and sport. I found athletica after months of trying to get it fixed by other professionals. After receiving treatment and the exercise programmes my knee is back to normal. I can’t thank Kev and all the athletica team enough, I recommend to all my family and friends!!

Fantastic experience: I broke my left ankle and had surgery in April 2024. With a few friends’ recommendation, I reached out to Lucy at Athletica to start planning for my rehab. Lucy was incredibly helpful and supportive when I couldn’t access the support I needed from the NHS system, and we started my physio as soon as I could bear weight. Lucy is knowledgeable and proactive - my ankle definitely benefits from the exercise, massages and acupuncture she has given me. She also encouraged and reassured me when the rehab was tough. By December some of my friends and family had forgotten about my injury because I was walking fine and bouldering again. Without her expertise, I wouldn’t have made such progress and got discharged today. I’m really grateful for Lucy’s expertise and care!

Fantastic experience: I really can’t say enough about how fantastic Kev and his team are. I first met Kev in 2022 on the morning of my first ultra marathon. I was feeing a niggle in my calf so I went to see him before the race. Whatever magic he did (a mix of message and tapping) did the trick! So when I tore my ACL and needed some post surgery rehab I knew who I had to call. From my first appointment with Katie (March 2024) to the next 10 months working with Kev I became stronger emotionally and physically. ACL rehab is not linear. I had a lot of ups and downs. Kev was there every step of the way. He pushed me, gave me confidence and was always there to put things in perspective when I was down. I’m now back doing what I love. I honestly don’t think I’d be where I am today without him.

Fantastic experience: Kevin’s care and advice for our daughter’s injury has been fantastic. Clear, comprehensive and with a dose of humour. She felt listened to and knows what is needed to get back to her best. Highly recommended for kids and adults alike.

Fantastic experience: I Went to Kev @ athletica just over 2 months ago with an ongoing knee injury that I potentially needed surgery on - following the rehab program Kev provided I am now back in the gym feeling stronger & training how I used to again! Thank you for the great service and support

Fantastic experience: by the far the best physio i’ve been to! Kevin is lovely, and has done wonders for me since i started coming, even after just one session i can feel improvement - would strongly recommend!!

Jan Joachim Zań Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I visited Athletica Clinic a couple of times, and they really helped me recover. Dr. Vani Grewal is a wonderful person, very cheerful, and most importantly, she did an amazing job. She got me back in great shape. What a fantastic physiotherapist! The stretching program she prepared for me is simple yet brilliant. It worked very well, after just a few days, I felt a big improvement, and the pain started to disappear. If I ever need physiotherapy again, I will definitely choose her. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I visited Athletica for back issues after a recommendation and had a great experience. Katy was fantastic—she quickly diagnosed the problem and provided a clear treatment plan. I also joined the men’s Pilates class run by Keven, which was excellent. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Lovely guy. Incredibly professional but great with kids. Highly recommended.

Jamie Bonsels Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Kevin has treated me for numerous different injuries over that past few years and each time he has been superb at diagnosing, treating and providing the necessary rehab programme for me to recover fully. His expertise and care have been immense and allowed me to get back to competitive sport. I would highly recommend him to anyone with an injury.

Ann Andrews Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve had cause to visit Athletica Pyhsiotherapy on a few occasions and had my consultations with Kevin Able. I’m not normal a person who leaves reviews but I genuinely cannot recommend Althetica enough, Kevin has been able to pinpoint my exact needs each time.

Becky Partridge Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Kev and the team are absolutely amazing! When I was injured doing a sport that I adore, Kev diagnosed the issue within minutes and relieved a lot of the symptoms in the first session (enough that I could get back to training). I left the session with a full rehab plan and an estimated timescale of how long the injury should take to fully heal. The rehab plan worked wonders and I was back to pretty much full capacity in less time than he estimated. I cannot recommend Kev and the team highly enough, they are magic.

Fantastic experience: Kevin has been fantastic at physically strengthening my son’s knee through physio, rehab exercises and great advice. However, it’s the increase that he has had on his confidence that is the most rewarding. Can’t wait to see him back to himself on the football pitch. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Kev's great; his mens pilates classes are aimed at the areas that cause us bloke, particularly those are now a bit older and returning to sport, discomfort. It's a relaxed place to be able to talk, learn and improve your body.

Grace Scott Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Kevin at Athletica Physiotherapy in October 2023 after suffering an acute injury to my L5, L4, and S1 discs. The pain was so severe that I ended up in the hospital after passing out, and I was left with debilitating sciatic nerve issues. Kevin’s expertise has been nothing short of life-changing. Over the course of our sessions, he worked with me tirelessly, tailoring each treatment plan to my specific needs. His deep knowledge, attention to detail, and commitment to my recovery made a significant difference. By December 2024, after several months of hard work, I underwent another MRI, which showed impressive progress in reducing the herniated disc pressing on my sciatic nerve. Kevin's care has been instrumental in getting me back to a much better place—free from the constant pain that once ruled my life. I am forever grateful for Kevin’s support and dedication throughout my recovery. His skill, patience, and compassion truly made a world of difference, and I can’t thank him enough for helping me regain my quality of life. I can not recommend Kevin enough. Kelly Scott, York

Fantastic experience: Fixed in One Session! Amazing amazing. Came in unable to walk properly after a pilates injury was compounded by a long run. Left with an intensive rehab exercise schedule. Returned 4 weeks later and was told I could not only run again, but that I don't need to see Kev for any further sessions! The thoroughness of the initial assesment meant Kev prescribed the right programme of rehab and whilst I had to work hard at home to get the results it was through his guidance and knowledge that I'm fixed. Thanks Kev and Team Athletica! :)
