Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend seeing Louis for your physio issues. Having had long standing neck and shoulder issues, I found that Louis immediately understood what was happening, could pin point the problem areas quickly and made a significant difference in just 1 session - very professional and easy to talk to as well.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended Friarswood physiotherapy clinic. Louis was very friendly, professional and made me feel comfortable throughout my treatment and explained everything clearly. Great service!

Fantastic experience: Dan Crowe at Friarswood helpfully and professionally resolved my lower back pain which had become debilitating. Thoroughly recommended, excellent physio.

Dimi Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Hi. Highly recommend this physiotherapy clinic. I had back issues for quite some time, legit felt like Gollum crawling around Newcastle-under-Lyme looking for a solution - and a solution there was, Dan Crowe doesn't have as much hair as Gandalf, but he does indeed possess magical skills. He guidance was effective, clear, he knew exactly how to address the problem and, frankly, he is an actual heavy lifter and naturally there's no better person to help with back problems than a guy who lifts things way heavier than my casual Morrison's bags full of beers, snacks and some broccoli to help with a balanced died. Overall, the guy helped me overcome my problems, I am well happy, think prices are very reasonable and what is also important, when things started improving, Dan didn't try to squeeze out more money out of me as many other clinic potentially could, considering how tough times are these days, so kudos where kudos is due, an honorable man. Great clinic, great results, great professionals, location is superb, so yeah, 10 out of 10. If you feel like your body is wrecked - give it a chance, worked for me.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic service. Louis Wrigley has helped me with knee and back issues, and has provided great advice and exercises for me to continue with in my recovery. Was able to fit me in at short notice with no issue. Highly reccommend.

Phil Warren Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended. I had been suffering with Achilles tendonitis extending into my calf muscle for around seven months, and it had become extremely limiting. My leg would frequently seize up and walking was often very painful. Dan at Friarswood Clinic worked patiently with me on a weekly basis, using deep tissue massage and ultrasound treatment. Throughout the process he was professional, knowledgeable and encouraging. I am now significantly improved, much more mobile, and the condition is far less debilitating than it was before treatment. Thank you, Dan, for your care and persistence. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Friarswood Clinic to anyone suffering with similar problems. Thanks Dan

Fantastic experience: Having recently pulled a muscle in my lower back (muscle went into spasm) and was extremely painful, I contacted Dan Crowe at Friarswood Physio Clinic. On my first visit he listened carefully to my background medical issues (spinal stenosis) and produced a plan to fit my needs. After several sessions of manipulation and doing the suggested exercises at home, I began to feel much better and can move a lot easier than I could before my treatment. Dan is highly skillful and absolutely dedicated to improving my condition. I would highly recommend Dan to anyone needing physio treatment. I'm now almost fully fit again! Thanks Dan

Janet Bartels Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Went to Dan with severe spondylitis (back & neck);having already completed NHS exercises and on Prescribed medication. Dan has been thorough, knowledgeable and persistent with professional treatment which has left me with pain free mobility and strengthened muscles. Great!

Keith Jervis Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I’ve had niggling problems with my Achilles over the last few months. Made an appointment with Dan Crowe who is a nice professional guy, he gave me massage and ultrasonic treatment and recommended some exercises and after a few days I could feel some improvement , went back for a second treatment and continued with the exercises, well into the second week and the improvement has continued. I would recommend Dan to anyone looking for a professional physiotherapist.

Debra Price Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I've seen Dan for the last few weeks, had hip pain extending into the thigh. Dan took time to listen and understand my problem. I was treated and given exercises to help. Love the online booking, and easy parking. Definitely recommend.

Jack Alcock Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I've seen Louis twice in the last couple of weeks after a recent history of ankle injuries through football. Louis's understanding and work in-session was excellent and made a big impact instantly. He's easy to get on with and great at explaining things, so I came away with a much better understanding of the ongoing management - I wouldn't hesitate to return.

Fantastic experience: Dan really helped when I had a quad injury. Everything was explained really well throughout and the treatment I was given was great in fixing my problem. My leg is now much stronger and more importantly pain-free! Thanks!

Lucy Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I have seen Dan regularly now for nearly 2 years for sports massage/physio. Dan is professional, knowledgeable and really invested in helping me recover from my sports injuries. I have seen many different physios over the years and Dan is by far the best.

Amy Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Had a good experience with Friarswood Physiotherapy. Was really easy to book an appointment online and treatment was great. I saw Dan who was very professional and friendly and really helped with my injury. No doubt I’ll be back in the future

Charlotte Meir Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Dan highly enough. After going through cancer treatment I was struggling with the after effects. From the very beginning, Dan was incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in my recovery. He took the time to really understand my situation, tailoring each session to my needs and always working at the right pace. Thanks to Dan, I’ve regained strength, mobility, and the confidence to start exercising and weight training again. Dan went above and beyond and I’m so grateful for the care and dedication he showed. I would always recommend him again in future :).

Loxi Abbott Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Dan helped me through my lower back injury, he was very educational on telling me which muscle had been affected, he gave me new exercises to practice each week which had a clear impact on the speed of my progress. He estimated pretty spot on how long he thought my recovery would take, if anything we were ahead of schedule because of how efficient his sessions were! He was always at hand to give advice outside of the physio too. Couldn’t recommend him enough. Cheers Dan!!

Martin Keegan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I'd been having issues with my knee for a number of weeks following a fell race. The range of movement was limited, it hurt to bend and it was swollen. Dan (Crowe) took time to understand my injury and my activities and came up with a plan to hopefully heal it. After 2 sessions I got back onto the trails and thankfully there were no after effects. I'd definitely recommend Dan and will certainly book in for more leg massages after future events.

Fantastic experience: I had my first appointment with Dan to assess a prolapsed disc and attendant sciatica. I was in a lot of pain, unable to stand, sit, or lie without pain. Dan assured me he could fix my problem, and he did! After several sessions, I am now completely free of pain. Grateful thanks to Dan for his support and technical skill, I shall recommend him to any friends and family with similar issues.

Dan Obada Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Dan has been amazing and has made a huge impact on my recovery from an injury. I started 5 weeks ago stiff, in pain and struggling to train at my best. Now, I’m pain free and can perform better even before my injury. After every session I came out feeling so much better. Dan was also very clear with how to support my rehabilitation outside of the clinic. Very pleased with the results and now I can get back to exercising at my best ability.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic physio, really careful to get thorough history and then plan exercise to do at home as well as treatment in the surgery. Massages my shoulder, then does ultra sound therapy, then adds the support tape. Had nhs physio before and no comparison to what Louis does. He's thoroughly professional and very good at his job. Highly recommend him to anyone who needs physio. Clinic has good carpark and is easy to get to.

Fantastic experience: I have been receiving rehab treatment, ultrasound with Dan for 5 weeks. I was experiencing severe neuropathic pain due to muscle spasms. Dan listened to my symptom history and provided a thorough and comprehensive treatment plan. With his caring attitude and positive reinforcement, my rehabilitation journey has processed quickly in order to return to work. Highly recommend his knowledge and skills to anyone requiring MSK assessment and treatment.

Fantastic experience: I visited Dan at Friarswood Physiotherapy after suffering an injury early doors into taking up running. Dan was great, he advised me of what my issue is, and the likely reason why I picked up the injury, before treating the area to assist with recovery and forming a recovery plan. I am now well on the road back to running and would highly recommend Dan to anyone seeking Physiotherapy.

Fantastic experience: I visited Louis following a football injury. He quickly identified that the injury was worse than I thought and suggested I sought further medical attention. His diagnosis was right and I am now receiving the medical treatment I need. I am incredibly thankful that he spotted the problem so quickly or I wouldn’t have given it the attention it needed

Jay Somerfield Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Injured both of my knees due to overtraining and was recommended to speak to Louis Wrigley at Friarswood. At the time, I could barely bend my legs, never mind run. Straight away, Louis knew the cause of my injury, how to treat it and how to prevent and deal with it moving forward. Within 2 sessions, my injury was practically gone and within a few weeks I was training as normal. Couldn’t recommend enough.
