Fantastic experience: Louis is hands-down the best physio I’ve seen! From the initial consultation, he works with you (and listens!), through every session, to help you build/rebuild, and improve. No bog standard sheet of exercises and off you go. This is different - It’s physio and training tailored to you, to your injury/issue, with the mission of finding what works and progressing. Louis has outstanding knowledge of back related injury, and has helped me through a tough 6 months following a disc herniation and associated issues. I’ve still got work to do but feel so much more confident knowing that I’ve rebuilt under his guidance. I cannot thank Louis enough for his patience, expertise and support. Highly recommend!
Thanks Kate, you’ve been a pleasure to work with. You’ve got this
Fantastic experience: Louis is amazing, I highly recommend him. Louis is helping me recover from a surgically repaired rotator cuff tear. After nearly 3 years of not knowing why I had pain in my hand and elbow I saw Louis and he suggested that I get an MRI which diagnosed the tear. Post operation Louis is helping me regain the movement in my shoulder but also helping me with my overall physical movement. As a non gym goer he has put me at ease within the gym environment. During each session he sets and checks the exercises and movements to make sure I have the correct form and that each exercise is working the correct muscles etc. He sets homework after each session and checks in with me on my progress.
Fantastic experience: I have had an ischaemic stroke which has left me with significant mobility limitations on my right side. Louis gave me appropriate physical challenge right from the first session and has been supporting me for the last 3 years. As a result I am still able to live on my own and carry out basic tasks such as showering, walking around my house independently and carrying things from one room to another. Throughout this time Louis has helped me develop my core strength which has helped my stability and has significantly lessened my falls. Thanks to Louis I am stronger, more stable and have a really sense of achievement when I do my exercises with him at the gym. I highly recommend him.
Martin it’s been a great journey and I have loved seeing your progress and determination. Outstanding
Fantastic experience: Love the small group PT sessions. The exercises are challenging and fun. Getting better at movement and gaining strength at each session ☺️
Crazy strength gains
Fantastic experience: Great physio with real results plus excellent PT and group fitness All in one place with continuity of people . Highly recommended
Thanks Rhona!
Fantastic experience: Louis managed to sort my painful hamstring tendon issue out with a thorough exercise regime tailor made and now doing follow on small PT group classes! Perfect to build and maintain strength and cardio…. and have a bit of fun in the process. Highly recommend for physio and PT.
Thanks for the review Jane great working with you!
Fantastic experience: Louis and the Team are great! What started off as physio, became very small group PT. Louis explains well what is required of us and makes sure we work hard but don't injure ourselves. All round great place
thanks Loo, you’re great fun in our Small Group PT sessions!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely one of the best massages I’ve had. The lymphatic massage was incredibly relaxing and I’ve noticed a reduction in the swelling in my legs already. Clean space. Highly recommend if you’re considering a lymphatic drainage massage :)
Great to have you in Charlie
Fantastic experience: Top physio Top coach Been working with Louis for a few years now and couldn’t ask for more, the coaching is always on point.
Progress has been crazy this year mate. Let’s go!
Fantastic experience: After working from home for over a year and sitting down for the majority of each day, I’d developed pain in my lower back that was incredibly uncomfortable from waking up to sleeping. After seeing Louis he was able to help pinpoint where the pain was coming from and help me work through exercises to relieve it. I can honestly say the sessions I had with Louis have been life changing. I’m massively grateful for his help and support!
Thanks for the review Luke been a pleasure working with you!
Fantastic experience: Tuesday evening Pilates classes are not to be missed. Louis puts us through our paces, making sure we are always in the correct position. We are gently pushed to do more each time with Louis’s great sense of humour. We are now stronger and more supple too. Hurray
getting fit whilst having fun thanks Mariana!
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Louis highly enough. I had been really struggling for over 12 months with pain in my back and leg, including pain at night that regularly affected my sleep. Before seeing Louis, I had already tried other professionals, but nothing had really helped or properly sorted the problem. Louis quickly identified the underlying issue and worked with me on a clear recovery plan, including targeted exercises that genuinely aided my recovery and allowed me to get back to doing the things I enjoy as before. He is patient, very knowledgeable and explains everything clearly, making sure exercises are done correctly and the right muscles are being engaged. I now feel hugely improved and pain free. I’m also definitely stronger than before. After my one-to-one treatment, I joined his Core, Mobility and Stability class, which has been brilliant. Louis makes the classes fun and engaging while still giving individual attention to correct posture and technique. A fantastic physio who really knows his stuff and genuinely cares about helping people recover properly.
smashing it Mel!
Fantastic experience: I have really enjoyed and benefited from Louis' well thought out approach. I am definitely feeling stronger and more flexible and far less worried about my back problems preventing me from doing what I enjoy. Louis is patient, clearly knows his stuff and funny.
Whoop whoop ⭐️ let’s go!
Fantastic experience: Louis is a fantastic physio and very knowledgeable. I attend his Core, Mobility and Stability class and he ensures everyone in the class is doing the exercises correctly, working individually to correct posture and ensure the correct muscles are being engaged. He is encouraging and enthusiastic, making the classes fun! I used to experience a lot of lower back pain but I don’t anymore. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
Thanks for the Karen
Fantastic experience: Brilliant exercise classes for over 65's, a very valuable hour twice a week!
We love having you in class Margaret
Fantastic experience: Get moving again, rediscover muscles you never knew you had! However unfit or injured you are to start with, Physio3 will look after you.
Pleasure working with you Tricia
Fantastic experience: Excellent and attentive support from Louis throughout my time visiting the studio. The sessions, takeaway exercises and fitness programme ensured a full recovery following my arm injury. Louis also identified a weakness in my hip, which I'd had replaced 3 years ago, and the work we did around this has strengthen it significantly which has greatly helped and improved my running performances.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, identified and solved my issues within a few weeks. Very approachable, friendly and professional. Couldn't recommend Louis and his team more. Thanks again for your support last year
Fantastic experience: I went to P3 as I was having terrible pain from tennis elbow. Louis was very thorough with his assessment of me and I was given a range of exercises to do at home. I also started having massage on my arm and shoulder with Maddy and I can't believe the difference. In a few weeks my arm was so much better and I'm now pain free. Everyone was so friendly and helpful too.
Fantastic experience: Louis is an exceptional physiotherapist and person. I have been working with him for six months to rehabilitate from a long term illness and his expert guidance, commitment and good humour have been vital in halting my decline into disability and recover function that I thought was forever lost. Working with him long-term (minimum three months) will him to formulate a plan for your needs and support you throughout. I can recommend Louis without hesitation or reservation.
Fantastic experience: I was recommended Louis by a member at my local gym after seeing 2 other physio’s about my ongoing back pain that resulted in no real improvement. Louis very quickly diagnosed the source of the problem and recommended a programme of treatment which included an understanding that the area needed to heal and I needed patience to allow that to happen. At the ask time I was given some active recovery exercises on mobility and light strength exercises to aid the recovery through gradual mobility improvements. He explained that the stretching I had been given before wasn’t doing anything to assist the recovery, just temporarily mask the pain, and that for the reasons he explained my body needed to start to work the cause of the pain, not where I wasn’t experiencing it. Within a few sessions a felt a marked improvement, both in pain reduction and range of motions. I have continued with Louis now my back has recovered to build up the strength in it in a sustained way in order to prevent further issues occurring in the future. I can highly recommend Louis, his knowledge and experience is excellent, his approach to treatment is fantastic, and he tells you what you need to hear in order to target your recovery or hit your goals.
Fantastic experience: I reached out to Louis after years of debilitating autoimmune issues. He really took time to understand my issues and I started on twice weekly sessions with Nick as my PT. He has been so excellent at staring me slowly with movement and weights and with ongoing assessment. I've been blown away by what I am able to do with the right level of input and guidance. After a decade of pain and exhaustion I am now moving around much more freely in my daily life. I have less pain and, even though I know I am at the very beginning of my fitness being regained, I feel hopeful and it feels sustainable. Nick has been nothing but encouraging and professional and it's great to be working with someone who gets such a buzz out of their work and is so good at it. I feel like I am being brought back to life and would highly recommend Physiotherapy3 to anyone needing a supportive and personalised approach.
Fantastic experience: Great experience with Louis helping me get my 60 year old knees ready for skiing! Just got back and happy to report it was a 100% success - Thanks Louis!
Fantastic experience: Seen really promptly the assessment was very informative and well managed. Follow up strengthening exercises each week clear and targeted to specific needs. I would have no hesitation in highly reccomending Louis.
Fantastic experience: Due to my occupation I suffer from ongoing neck and shoulder pain. Every so often I need a therapeutic massage to reduce the stress and tension. I’ve had massages before, but the one with Sophie was on another level, she found the cause of my problem and gave a deep tissue and muscle massage. Not only does she work on areas that are problematic but also on the whole body top to toe. I felt so much lighter and freer when I left. Throughly recommend
Fantastic experience: Seeing Louis has genuinely changed my life for the better; his incredible knowledge and individualised programme have made such a difference. I first went to Louis with lower back pain, aching knees and a sore neck - for the first time in too long I now experience no pain in my everyday life. What's more, having PT sessions with someone who is a physio means that every time something isn't quite right, Louis looks into the root cause to sort it out fully. The sessions challenge me and the variety and accountability in my programme keeps me really motivated as well. Louis is also really personable and the sessions fly by! 10/10 would recommend.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant! Louis was able to see me very quickly and diagnosed my MSK issue with great professionalism. He created an exercise programme which got me back on my feet (literally!) within weeks; he explained everything very carefully and this was followed up each week with an email detailing each exercise. I cannot recommend Louis and his physiotherapy clinic highly enough - I would say he's the best Chartered Physiotherapist in Stroud.
Fantastic experience: Great physio. Louis takes time to analyse the issue then takes you through a varied programme to get you sorted. The studio, equipment and atmosphere is fantastic. I would highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Great physio - really sorted my problem. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Easy parking at facility. Lovely use of old building with modern new equipment. Very professional assessment with plenty of checking and adapting to individual needs. Good follow up and reassurance.
Fantastic experience: Louis quickly determined the cause of my unsteady posture in just one session, and through clear explanation and guidance assigned me a few exercises to practice. He shared insightful knowledge to help me understand the importance of practicing these exercises with a follow up of tailored course treatments thank-you!
Fantastic experience: Louis is both incredibly knowledgeable and personable, whether it’s applied to coaching, training or physiotherapy. Louis listens to his clients and puts together a methodical while practical and realistic programme to address your issues. Working with Louis in the past I’ve been able to improve my fitness, my skills and now rehabilitating an injury and imbalance. I would highly recommend to anyone.
Fantastic experience: What I have learnt after being in CrossFit for eight years and what I have learnt about getting older and what I can expect from my body has been completely transformed by Louis. His approach and knowledge is extraordinary and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Thank you so much for my lower back and neck problems being sorted slowly and carefully teaching me to put this kind of historic pain at bay
Fantastic experience: This place is incredible, having worked closely with Louis during my competitive 100m & 200m sprint career out of CrossFit gyms it’s great to see him in his own high quality space and now building his own team! My experience has always been great, in my own personal experience I’ve always learnt a lot about how to maximise my bodies performance and how to avoid / reduce the risk of injury. I have also recommended and shadowed my clients and see them get the same high quality service that I rave about. If ever I need to recommend a physiotherapist I do not hesitate to recommend physio3 and often have members of the Anytime fitness gym I work out of and my own clients rave about their experience and thank me for introducing them to the physio3 team
Fantastic experience: Just wanted to say a huge thank you to Louis for all his expertise and encouragement. I came to ask for his help after experiencing chronic SI joint pain that had put me in hospital and unable to work for months. I had seen doctors, chiropractors and osteopaths and although received some temporary relief, nothing really lasted. Louis’s individually created exercises really helped get me moving and back on my feet. I am now feeling well and strong and enjoying life and activity again, but the most important thing that Louis has given me, is the mindset of what I can achieve for myself, with commitment and effort.
Fantastic experience: Very thorough and knowledgable. I came to Louis with a lingering knee injury that meant I couldn’t run or play basketball. After a few sessions both knees were strong enough to run on again and I had a simple strengthening exercise plan to continue working on at home. Superb service, would absolutely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Honestly I can't recommend highly enough. Incredibly rare to find someone with as deep a understanding of their profession as Louis does - his holistic approach (especially incorporating the mental and psychological side of things) has changed my perception on what physiotherapy is and helped improve mine and my partner's quality of life immeasurably.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! I've been seeing Louis recently for neck/knee/shoulder stability issues plus training advice ahead of my first half marathon. He has great attention to detail, tonnes of knowledge, and really takes the time to understand everything, meaning you leave with a very tailored, well thought-out and achievable plan. Super friendly too. My running pace has improved massively, and the issues I came in with have been getting better or almost completely resolved, which is a real relief. Significantly better experience using Physiotherapy3 than any other physios I've seen over the years (cannot stress that enough) - wish I'd known about it sooner.
Fantastic experience: Maddy works absolute wonders and has made such a difference in a short period of time to my back! I recommend her to everyone I know and love coming to Physiotherapy 3!
Fantastic experience: Louis is a great physio that I'd highly recommend. He's helped me get on top of back and hip problems I've been having for years, which has enabled me to start doing the activities I enjoy again (mainly running). His patient and thoughtful approach have been helpful in identifying the root of the problem, and he has given me a structured plan for recovery.
Fantastic experience: I've been attending physio sessions for a few weeks due to chronic knee pain and sacroiliac pain. Louis is incredibly thorough in diagnosing the source of the problem and provides excellently tailored exercises. Sessions have felt like a proper workout in themselves as opposed to previous physio experiences I've had which have given me 'one exercise suits all' type of approaches, as well as a fixation on orthotics and massage. I've seen my sacroiliac pain almost completely disappear already and I'm seeing constant improvement and progress throughout my body. Having a video-record of myself doing the exercises has been excellent for helping maintain consistency in exercise technique and form. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Louis. More progress in a couple of months than in years of seeing various other physios!
Fantastic experience: Louis is a great physio, I’ve had a few niggles over the years and he has always managed to sort them out quickly. Recently I have been to him for issues with my ankle and foot, which he has sorted enabling me to get back training for my half marathon, to which he has also helped by providing a great training plan to get me race ready!
Fantastic experience: Louis is an excellent, dedicated and intelligent physiotherapist. After 6 weeks of improvement in his private physio sessions, I joined his over 60's group, where he works us hard whilst watching over our individual needs. I can feel my fitness and stamina growing all the time, while having great fun and lots of laughs. I would genuinely recommend him to anyone.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend physio3. Louis has helped me on several occasions with issues that arise from working as a gardener. He is my go to whenever I feel something is not working right- he sends me the necessary excersise’s in an easy format to follow and all the info to help understand why issues occur and how I can help myself.
Fantastic experience: Excellent physio
Fantastic experience: I came to Louis with a minor knee injury as I began training for a Ultra Marathon. He quickly diagnosed the issue and gave me exercises for recovery. His follow up care was excellent, regularly getting in contact and checking how my progress was going. He also went above and beyond to give me regular advice and guidance on my training, ensuring I didn’t over train or put myself in danger of further injury. And all round excellent service.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic physio and incredibly knowledgeable. Right from initial assessment to follow ups after sessions, Louis approach to fixing injuries and client wellbeing are second to none. Would 110% recommend for any of your physiotherapy needs!
Fantastic experience: The man's a wizard! Booked in with Louis for a biomechanical assessment, he identified a number of issues which we've been working on. Helped me get my toes to bar after just two sessions on hip mobility and he continues to monitor my progress and give me adjustments to my movements where needed. Always book back in to see him if I pick up a new niggle. 100% recommend!
Fantastic experience: Louis is an absolute legend. I was recommended by a local therapist who I use and was not disappointed. Superb attention to detail, very informative and always has an answer ready. I will be sending all of my own patients when they need his expertise. Great banter and class hair! Highly recommend for any of your goals!
Fantastic experience: Great experience with Louis, easy to talk to and understands what the goals are I wanted to achieve out of my physio appointments.
Fantastic experience: Louis was brilliant from start to finish off having a injured back before I had even booked an appointment he was giving me advice and tips to help me with my injury which put me out of work for 3 months. He contacted my work to give them a better understanding of my injury and got me back to work safely and in a good amount of time. When training with Louis in person he was good humoured and made me enjoy rehabilitation training as well as making sure it was done correctly at no point did I feel Pressured to bulk buy or pay for more sessions than I needed and sometimes I had to remind Louis that I needed to pay him. It was great to see someone at a young age have such an interest in how he could help me as much as possible and as efficiently as possible while still having light hearted humour throughout. I will and have been back to Louis since my injury and it is always great to see him work out how he can make you move,feel,lift and all round be better within your body I recommend Louis to anyone that asks for injury advice and anyone reading this I would highly suggest contacting Louis.
Fantastic experience: Can’t recommend Louis highly enough. After a hip and shoulder injury I struggled for several years (and through several physiotherapists!) before finding Louis through my gym. Finally I am pain free, and able to train again, after Louis helped to meticulously work through the problem, listening and adapting my recovery programme visit by visit. It’s genuinely changed my life from where I was for many years post injury and I’m very grateful!
Fantastic experience: Louis Blyth, what a Guy, fantastic workouts.
Fantastic experience: Legend
Fantastic experience: Louis is a very skilled Physio he helped me with my hand pain which has been an ongoing since last year. Would recommend his services to anyone and on-top of this he is great to just chat to!
Fantastic experience: I started working with Louis the start of the year to aim for a 2:50 marathon so I could qualify London marathon good for age It was a hard four months of training, but he gave me everything really helpful always there on the phone updated the program every week there was times I wanted to quit, but he never gave up on me which give me hope he came to marathon which was really nice very reasonable price for the running program I managed to finish the Newport marathon 2:49 next goal 2:45 Valencia in December I will definitely be having Louis for my coach for that marathon highly recommend him really nice guy and kept me in injury free
Thanks Dan, great working with you mate let’s get it at Valencia
Fantastic experience: Fantastic! Highly recommend Physio3, Louis is excellent. I came to Louis seeking advice and guidance after a knee dislocation that had left me with terrible anxiety and a lack of confidence. Within my first consultation, Louis put me completely at ease and created an individual training programme that after only the second session raised my confidence and lowered my anxiety, making my recovery a lot more enjoyable. His knowledge and adaptability in creating the best possible exercise is great, moving at my pace, challenging me when necessary and motivating me so I feel really good after every session.
Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Louis enough...he really has improved my quality of life (& my expectations of future mobility and pain) considerably. He takes great care in working out what is going on and explains the mechanics behind the issues so you understand why you are doing the homework he sets! Thank you Louis
Fantastic experience: Louis is absolutely fantastic. I found myself in a really painful position several weeks ago. He used the appropriate assessment techniques and skills to ease the acute pain and help with my rehabilitation. Over a couple of sessions he worked really hard to help me not only in the present moment, but to prevent pain in the future and improve my general mobility. Thank you Louis!
Fantastic experience: Very impressed with Louis’ knowledge and way of working. Like seriously impressed. This guy knows his stuff. Will 100% come again and recommend to others.
Fantastic experience: Having had a biomechanical assessment with Louis, he seemed to have a wealth of knowledge and a wide range of exercises to treat the issue that he identified. Would highly recommend and will be returning in the future.
Fantastic experience: Having been a client of Louis and Physio3 Ltd for several years his focus and attention is second to none. Whether through injury or improvement, his ability to provide the correct personal programme is unquestionable. I will continue to work with Louis @ Physio3 for years to come and would recommend him to anyone.
Fantastic experience: Professional, reliable and staunch service. Happily recommend and will continue to use Louis regularly for years to come.
Thank you Phil @GardenSolutions. Been great working with you :)
Fantastic experience: A brilliant physio, highly recommend for great results! Has put together a great personalised programme to get me back to full fitness. Really understands the biomechanics of the body and tailors each session to suit your needs!
Fantastic experience: All round excellent service at Physio3. Couldn’t recommend Louis enough for physiotherapy. Helped with an ongoing hamstring issue which has now all resolved. Friendly, professional and extremely knowledgable!
Thanks for your review Dan. I'm glad our Physiotherapy treatment and advice helped you recover from your hamstring injury.
Fantastic experience: After an emergency epigastric hernia operation Louis put together an incredible post op rehabilitation program for me . I am 7 weeks post op and have now met all my timeline targets. I could not have done this without Louis - he has helped me regain my confidence and I am back riding my horse and continuing my life! Never thought this could be possible - thank you Louis!
Fantastic experience: Love Loui's approach to his work. The care he shows for his clients is fantastic. Through working alongside him and having many a chat about work related subjects, it is clear that he loves to educate people and give a clear why for the approach he is choosing.
Fantastic experience: Incredible attention to detail. Client always put first.
Fantastic experience: Louis is an excellent clinician. His assessments are thorough. He has expertise in several areas that all come together to create an holistic program for his clients . I am pretty broken with a fair amount of joint and soft tissue problems . Louis can’t cure me but he improves my problems at every visit . I cannot recommend him highly enough
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Physio3. I have had treatment for my lower back, knee and shoulder and appreciate the quality of assessment and structured approach to recovery. I continue to use Physio3 for maintenance as a preventative measure.
Thank you for the feedback Nick. It's been great working with you at our clinic in Stonehouse, Stroud. See you for another Biomechanics Assessment next month.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant, tailored service. Had been struggling for a long time with lower back and hip issues. Louis' focus on my needs and rehab that I could fit around my priorities really changed the game nad helped me recover and sterngthen in the long-term.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic service, great knowledge and the results are easy to see ! Highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Super swift diagnosis, of my lumbar curve which was never picked up by "other" local Physio's. The knowledge shown was astounding and from the get go, his only intentions were to help and educate me.
Thank you for the review Neal. I'm glad you received the Physiotherapy service you were looking for.
Fantastic experience: Extremely professional service, easy to communicate with, absolute life saver with an injury from Ironman race, continued on with maintenance going forward!
