Weymouth Physiotherapy

Fantastic experience: Very patient and thorough with assessing what treatment is needed. It's been great to have a more clear understanding of what I can do to aid in my recovery and maintain a healthy body, while also having some very effective short term relief to get me off to a good start. If you've had physio before or you're looking to it for the first time, this would be a fantastic place to check out.

Fantastic experience: Went along with an open mind having never done this before. Straight away I felt comfortable when Carl met me in the foyer . Had a get to know you chit chat , then on with the nessacary. Suggested a hip block injection which I’d never heard of so went and researched online had that done a week later. Pain reduced by 90% . Now I can work on exercise Carl had given with not so much pain in my body and in my head. A right result. Would have no hesitation in recommending Carl to friends and family. Seeing Carl in two weeks time for tweeking exercises. Thanks Carl.

Fantastic experience: I was extremely impressed with Carl. He was extremely thorough in his assessment. He listened to everything very carefully and clarified where necessary. He was very clear in explaining what and why he was doing certain movements. His diagnosis made complete sense and I was very relieved when he told me it was fixable. He gave me 3 exercises (not a ridiculous long list) to do, why I was doing each one, what to expect and how to progress them. Carl also told how long it's likely to take to improve. I would thoroughly recommend him (and I'm a retired physio!!)

Fantastic experience: Visited due to pain and lack of mobility in neck and shoulder. Comprehensive consultation pre treatment as was first visit. Following treatment made follow up appointment for further treatment and to discuss plan for future management of muscle tension. Premises easy to find and treatment room spacious and comfortable. Felt confident that was in good hands throughout appointment.

Fantastic experience: Carl was very friendly and put me at ease straight away, great listener and very thorough in his initial examination. We agreed a plan going forward. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Sorted out my glass shoulder, couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I needed help to get me walking after total knee replacement, had my first session with Carl, by the end, I was walking without crutches. Carl was very knowledgeable and clever to give me guidance and confidence. Should have booked sooner. Looking forward to working with Carl to get my life back!

Fantastic experience: Carl’s a very knowledgeable and experienced physio, finding the cause of my knee pain almost instantly during the initial consultation tests. He’s given me confidence the pain will subside in the near future with some work, which is a huge relief. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Weymouth Physiotherapy came highly recommended and I wasn't disappointed , I felt so much better even after one visit. Thankyou Carl.

Fantastic experience: Excellent went to see Carl after knee replacement found to be excellent and great advice would highly recommend regards John Hymas

Fantastic experience: Carl is extremely personable and thorough. He worked on my Achilles and arthritic knee while providing sound advice on my level of activity and exercises. I have no hesitation in recommending Carl for your physiotherapy needs.

Fantastic experience: Great guy, very professional and has made a big difference to my health

Fantastic experience: Carl has been brilliant in getting me moving ahead of my NHS sessions starting. He has provided a tailored approach to my needs with suitable exercises to tackle as I progress. His advice has also really helped push forward the treatment I have received through the NHS. Money very well spent and I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Fantastic experience: Carl is brilliant

Fantastic experience: I was a little nervous at my first appointment, but Carl quickly put me at ease with his professional and personable manner. He quickly recognised my problem and offered a way forward with an exercise regime and further appointments. I'm confident that Carl will help to get my knee back to normal. Definitely 5/5!

Fantastic experience: Carl was very thorough and informative. Good experience,

Fantastic experience: Carl was professional knowledgeable and kind. He put me at ease and offered sage advice as to what would help me with my recovery.

Fantastic experience: Carl is very thorough. He listens carefully and then helps you. An excellent service.

Fantastic experience: Having a hip problem , I contacted Carl who after only 3 sessions has helped me regain movement. Going forward Carl has given me exercises that will further improve my mobility. Excellent service. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Fantastic experience: I went to visit Carl with an injury to my shoulder that I had been suffering with for about 6 months, after a thorough examination he diagnosed rollater cuff injury. He gave me exercises to do at home, I visited him three times and after every visit he gave me different exercises to do. I improved very quickly and wished I had gone to see him sooner, money and time well spent. Carl is very easy to talk to and I would not hesitate to visit again if the need arose.

Fantastic experience: Carl has a great manner, is really friendly, and most importantly, explains things in a really clear and helpful way. My 86 year old Mum has visited him for 6 sessions to help improve her balance and self- confidence when walking. Carl introduced personalised exercises for Mum to complete both in and out of his clinic. She thoroughly enjoyed her sessions with him and now regularly leaves the house independently for short walks.

Fantastic experience: Very competent and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Fantastic experience: Amazing service. I would have manned out a shoulder problem but on advice of a friend I went... very glad I did, I now know what's going on with my shoulder and it's on the mend...

Fantastic experience: A good experience. Carl was knowledgeable and reassuring with my worries. The massage relieved the pain for a while and the exercise suggested will help. I'll be doing something positive. It was what I needed and I'm so glad I went. i'm also grateful for the suggestions etc which followed.Thank you.

Fantastic experience: I continue to be reassured by Carl . Further exercises now with a clear plan for recovery. Very efficient and friendly service.

Fantastic experience: Really relaxed but experienced atmosphere. Amazing place.

Fantastic experience: Seen on time, given procedures to follow, very efficient

Fantastic experience: When I initially phoned, Carl was insightful to what maybe causing my complaint and was confident he could give me treatment. Once my 'rotator cuff' had been diagnosed by Carl, his physio exercises and advice was 'spot on'. I did follow what he prescribed and unbelievably with in three months and three visits, I was free from debilitating pain and hinderance that the rotator cuff was causing me. I wholeheartedly recommend you giving Carl a call if you are suffering. Peter (53).

Fantastic experience: Carl did a really thorough diagnosis and explained everything really well. Received the exercise programe quickly. Am very happy with the whole experience. Only problem ? The exercise is hard!

Fantastic experience: My musculoskeletal consultant told me in October 3021 that I am on the waiting list for a hip replacement - 2 years!!! My chiropodist recommended that I contact Carl Neal, physiotherapist. It might be possibly one of the best decisions I have taken. After initial consultation and being led through exercise programme Carl asked if I would prefer my next consultation to take place after 2 weeks or one month. There was absolutely no pressure at all - it was entirely my choice. I chose 2 weeks, deeming it might be enough for Carl to see if there was any progress on my dodgy hip and it turned out to be the correct choice. Carl was immediately able to see where I could improve my techniques and could also tweak the programme. The good news is that there has already been some improvement and it is very encouraging to know that with my extra knowledge I should be moving up the ladder to better fitness even faster. I can’t praise Carl highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I went to see Carl at Weymouth Physiotherapy because I have had discomfort in my right knee for over a year. I thought I knew what the problem was, and I was just going to get confirmation of the issue. After a thorough inspection of the affected knee, which lasted about an hour Carl told me what the problem was and gave me advice on how to deal with the issue which involved specific exercises and a support item that would be beneficial for my issue. The explanations and advice throughout the appointment was excellent and I only wish I had gone to Weymouth Physiotherapy a lot sooner. Time well spent.

Fantastic experience: I noticed Carl doing a talk on Facebook about sciatica. At the time I was in a very low state, in perpetual pain despite regular contact with GP and a Chiropractor I was getting nowhere and at my wits end. Carl, like other practitioners, identified the cause. What made Carl stand out was that he immediately saw the path through to resolving matters by referring me for an epidural. It is now a month since I had this treatment and it has been an upward path ever since. So, for me it was an extremely good move in contacting Carl and one that I would recommend for anyone else in my position.

Fantastic experience: Carl is an excellent physio. Having consulted him for a painful knee injury, I found hin to be very professional, and felt that he listened and understood the difficulties I arrived with. His approach is holistic, and flexible to pain boundaries. Carl devised a means of allowing me to stretch and rehabilitate my injured knee, in a way which didn't make my pain worse. We collaborated to create a programme of ongoing rehabilitation that should allow me to return to a very physical lifestyle. I highly recommend him

Fantastic experience: Carl was very thorough, careful and kind. He examined me in great detail, explained my condition to me well, and gave me strategies to deal with it and hopefully improve it. He generally left me feeling hopeful and encouraged and I look forward to my next appointment, hopefully with progress to report.

Fantastic experience: Emma has been wonderful. She is very easy to talk to and has helped me understand the reasons behind my symptoms.

Fantastic experience: So pleased I found Carl has having had a very bad neck ache for a number of weeks, he was able greatly improve the pain after just one visit, to be honest I went with an open mind as to whether physiotherapy would help having not tried before, it certainly did and I would fully recommend him, very professional throughout.

Fantastic experience: Carl covered all possible bases keeping other health conditions in mind at all times. Got a diagnosis and exercise plan in place on the first appointment and my confidence was instantly increased!

Positive experience: Carl was very thorough and everything he told me and recommended was easily understood and doable. Feeling happier and more re assured after my appointment

Fantastic experience: I had constant back pain. Carl explained the cause, how to overcome it with an exercise plan and how to keep supple and active. I am no longer in pain and have got my life back. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: Carl is professional and explains everything very clearly which helps you to understand your pain and how your exercise program can improve your symptoms. I totally recommend him.

Fantastic experience: Very courteous and professional chap nice friendly atmosphere

Fantastic experience: Excellent. There were clear expectations from the assessment visit as to what Carl could achieve to help improve my physical health and he achieved them. My hands are much improved after three visits and a series of exercises to do at home. There was no attempt to prolong my treatment which I appreciated. I would recommend Weymouth Physiotherapy.

Fantastic experience: Carl is a great physio. Very thorough diagnosis and training plan laid out from the start. Diagnosed me with a torn rotator cuff that I had been suffering with for over 4 months. Within 3 appointments over 2 months, my cuff is back to full strength and I am able to start training properly once again. Could not recommend enough, worth every penny!

Fantastic experience: Initial phone consultation to determine need, a detailed case history taken, and excellent online exercise programme supplied. Covid precautions exemplary.

Fantastic experience: I was met promptly on time and given excellent examination and treatment. Following my visit I continued the exercises and soon recovered.

Fantastic experience: I had tried to access physiotherapy through the NHS but due to Covid there was a long wait. I decided, after reading the Weymouth Physiotherapy website, to get in touch with Carl as my knee was so incredibly painful (not just with my OA) to see what he could do. His website was correct on every level. He listened to me, was thorough in his questioning and was incredibly straightforward, explaining his plan and clear in giving his diagnosis. A few weeks later after following Carl’s advice my knee is so much better but there is still an issue. Instead of dragging out further treatments Carl has discharged me from his clinic and has requested, via a letter to my doctor, that I be seen by a specialist with the option to return to see him when we have found out exactly what the issue is. For sound , honest advice and treatment I would thoroughly recommend them.

Fantastic experience: A very good consultation and subsequent treatment. Karl was extremely professional, he took time to understand my concerns and then gave me the confidence to carry out remedial exercises to alleviate my back pain.

Fantastic experience: I had been treated by Carl in the past and was delighted to find he had set up his own business. I went convinced of a wonky pelvis and left very much reassured there wasn't much to worry about and I am stronger and fitter than I thought! It was for me like an MOT - having a professional go though what I had been doing with myself trying to get toned up during lockdown and confirm all was well was well worth the fee Carl has a very calm, reassuring manner and asks the right questions to get you really thinking about things in a slightly different, more relevant and constructive way Very thorough with paperwork both before, during and after the appointment; I received a very useful summary within hours of exiting the clinic, nice touch! His office is bright and airy with a very calm ambiance, nice place to be! Thanks so much, I don't need to come back as yet but will recommend you to all and return should anything need reviewing / checking Cassie Bown

Fantastic experience: I arrived for my first physio session. Safety and social distancing was carried out very efficiently and effectively. I had severe pain, could hardly walk, bending was out of the question and I was completely stressed and tired. I walked out one hour later with much more mobility. Carl was understanding, sympathetic, and very thorough. He alleviated my main concerns and he explained everything and sent a very useful video summary the next day. This was my first visit and I feel confident that my back problem will soon be a thing of the past. I would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I had trouble with my Achilles’ tendon. NHS wasn't able to give me an appointment in a good time. Carl was able to give me an immediate appointment and set me up with an exercise regime that brought pretty quick improvements to my condition. Consultations were fairly priced as well. The Achilles’ tendon has now healed. Thank you Carl.

Fantastic experience: Excellent and professional service. Carl worked very hard to sort me out. Would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Weymouth Physiotherapy. Carl was extremely informative in explaining my back problem. The exercises he performed on my back helped solve my problem and he was very patient when showing me how to continue doing those exercises when at home.

Fantastic experience: Following a prolapsed disc, 8 days in hospital and an epidural, I was desperate to get mobile again. Carl took time to understand my pre-incident capabilities and establish my goals, then worked with me to get me mobile again. We've done a lot of work to define the boundaries of acceptable pain. I'm now at the point where I don't flinch or stop what I'm doing because I now understand what the pain triggers are and how to mitigate them. Only 8 weeks after being blue-lighted into hospital with zero motor function in my left leg, I'm walking again and have started lifting modest weights. Highly, highly recommended. Don't let spinal trauma beat you!

Fantastic experience: I saw Carl from Weymouth Physiotherapy after experiencing pain in my foot after running. He diagnosed me with a stress fracture which had not been picked up by the doctor. His diagnosis allowed me to get the proper treatment and get back to running.
