Branch Physiotherapy

Fantastic experience: I made an appointment for my dad (age 75) to see Emily as he had lost some confidence with hiking and running due to his balance. Emily made him feel at ease, assessed him thoroughly and designed a personalised plan to improve his strength and balance. He kept to this over a number of months and follow up appointments and now is preparing to walk up one of the Yorkshire Three Peaks on his 76th birthday and has entered Percy Pud again (having not been sure he would be able to do either this time last year). Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Can’t reccomend Emily enough! She's so patient and takes time to explain everything clearly, nothing felt rushed. My nan was struggling with lower back pain and she's made a real difference. Friendly and profesional. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Fantastic experience: Emily got me from unable to run, to training for a 10km. She always gives scientific reasoning for why she’s suggesting something, and I’m amazed by the progress I made with her support. I couldn’t recommend Emily and Branch Physiotherapy more.

Fantastic experience: I saw Emily for an ankle sprain from netball, and she was brilliant throughout my recovery. She helped me build the strength and stability back in my ankle and gave me the confidence to get back to the game. She was always so knowledgeable, supportive and encouraging.

Fantastic experience: Great physio! Very lovely person, got to the bottom of my injury and helped me get back to running almost immediately. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've been to Emily a few times now for help with various running injuries and recommend her to everyone! She always gives me super simple exercises that gradually alleviate the pain and stop the same issues coming back again. She's also just a super lovely person, always puts you at ease and understands how upsetting/ frustrating injuries can be as well as being just a physical issue!

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Emily at the start of marathon training due to a hip and knee injury, her advice and guidance helped me build my strength and meant I crossed the finish line with no hip or knee pain and with no further injuries! She also did some sports massages which was so helpful in getting tied legs through the long runs at the end of the training block. Emily is very friendly and creates a welcoming atmosphere, I would definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: Emily is brilliant! I went to Emily following a reoccurrence of some shin pain. Having deferred from the London Marathon the previous year, I was determined to do it this year. Emily really listened and took into account everything else going on in my life to help me get up and running again. I completed the London Marathon with zero shin pain throughout the race and this really wouldn’t have been possible without Emily’s advice and reassurance (and recommendations!). Would 100% recommend to anyone needing a physio.

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t recommend Emily any more highly! She listens to your what your issue is, provides excellent advice and exercises to help with her clients and is so friendly. She helped me recover from an awful Achilles issue and now I’m back to marathon running! Oh and she’s just a very lovely and kind person to boot!

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Emily enough, she's exactly what you want from a physio. I am unfortunately prone to injuring myself in random ways but Emily has such a wealth of knowledge that she always knows what's causing the pain, why it's happened, how to fix it and how to prevent it again. And what's more she delivers the information in such a lovely non-patronising way that sometimes it feels like you're chatting with one of your mates. If you're considering booking an appointment with her you absolutely will not regret it.

Fantastic experience: Came to Branch physiotherapy per online recommendations and now I can wholeheartedly recommend! I've been through a nasty accident which required tailored physio approach. Emily is professional, knowledgeable, lovely, understanding and just right challenging to encourage progress. I wouldn't be where I am without her guidance and support. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: After suffering with pain in my left knee for 18+ months I went to see Emily on a recommendation. Emily was brilliant in diagnosing and then providing strength exercise to fix my issue. Over the course of 6 months Emily helped deal with the issue and strengthen the area around the knee. During the process I was still able to run and Emily worked in a collaborative way. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: I started seeing Emily last summer, and I’ve gone from experiencing bad hip pain when running at 2-3k, with pain lasting for a few days after, to running 20k totally pain free in around 7 months. I’d had issues with hip pain since 2022. I’d diligently stuck to a plan given to me by an NHS physio for over a year with absolutely no success and no progress in returning to running or sorting out the pain. Emily really listened and understood where I was coming from, and what equipment I had access to at home. She factored this in to create a plan I could follow at home that I progressed with over time. She knew when I could be pushed further and when I needed to step back/rest a bit more, including tweaking what I was doing to fit round a new injury I picked up after a fall. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I went to Emily with intense knee pain when doing the simplest activities such as walking. She was fantastic at reassuring me, and giving me the correct exercises to bring me back to full health. I am now back to exercising with no pain. Thanks again Emily!

Fantastic experience: I came to Emily following a reoccurring back injury that had started to limit my active life. Couldn’t run or lift weights and had started to effect my job. Emily’s knowledge is second to none, quickly finding the problem and formulating a plan to both get rid of the pain and prevent it reoccurring. The strength focus of Emily’s sessions has allowed me to get back to lifting weights and running again! She amazing at what she does and has a personality to match! I would 100% recommend her to anyone, the best physio around!!

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend Emily! I went as I had injured my shoulder and she was able to work out very quickly what I had injured, my rotator cuff, and was able to give me lots of exercises to help recover and as a result I am now stronger than I was when I started!

Fantastic experience: When I say Emily has literally changed my life I am not over exaggerating. I have suffered for years with lower back pain which began to get worse when I took up running. I went to see Emily not entirely expecting a miracle but hoping to improve...let's just say expectations EXCEEDED. Not only have I got back to running 10k but now I'm training for my first half, alongside having a better knowledge of my body and being able to use it better in my day to day life as well. Emily has given me the tools to keep improving and sent me on my merry way happier and stronger than I was before. She knows her stuff, is so supportive, and an added bonus is she's super friendly!! Couldn't recommend more ☺️

Fantastic experience: Emily is so knowledgeable and inspires such confidence. After the first appointment I left feeling empowered and hopeful about recovery. I’d recommend Emily to everyone. Being in a gym based setting I think is invaluable and another plus

Fantastic experience: I made an appointment with Emily due to knee pain. Emily was polite and personable as soon as I arrived at my appointment and made me feel at ease. She quickly ascertained the cause of my pain and explained the science behind it. From this we were able to draw up a set of bespoke exercises to combat the pain and strengthen the area. Everything was explained to me in straightforward terms and I left feeling confident about my rehab. I am now running pain free and looking forward to my half marathon.

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Emily enough. After 4 months of religiously following the exercises she recommended for my hip issues, not only did the aches and pains disappear, but my strength and performance improved so much.

Fantastic experience: Emily is the best! Have had years of knee pain and she changed the way I understand the pain and, more importantly, has given me loads of techniques and exercises so that I have no pain now! Very kind, supportive and includes you in your treatment along the way! Helps you understand WHY you're doing things as well as great results!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Emily. I’ve always been very active and health conscious but I started getting recurring hip problems to the point of my leg giving out. I suspected an injury but Emily was able to diagnose it straight away as an IT band weakness. The exercises she gave me have helped tremendously. I’m now back weight training pushing heavier than before.

Fantastic experience: I came to Emily with ongoing calf pain and a lot of stiffness from running. She immediately pinpointed the issue, explained it really well, and provided me with stretches and exercises to strengthen the area. She’s really helped me gain my confidence back and after only a few sessions I’m running almost entirely pain free! Thank you Emily!!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic service. This was my first time working with a physiotherapist and I was amazed by the results I had in a few sessions. I would recommend Emily in a heartbeat.

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Emily in a heartbeat! In training for my first Ironman 70.3 I begun having hip pain and not so long after a knee issue where I couldn’t even walk and was scared that after 4 months of training, I’d have to stop and pull out. But Emily sussed the problem immediately, put me at ease and gave me the clear direction and exact exercises I needed, ensuring it met my specific needs and fit into my demanding training schedule. I was pain free within a matter of weeks and now four weeks out from the event feeling stronger than ever!! She’s genuinely so knowledgeable, understanding and supportive too and explains everything so helpfully. 10/10 ❤️

Fantastic experience: Emily has been fantastic, I went to see her because of a torn muscle to my rotator cup after a fall from my mountain bike. This caused me to not being able to follow through properly on my golf swing. After a thorough assessment she gave me a series of exercises to do, slowly building up on these and also adding to them. I can't thank her enough for curing my problem and also for her friendly and pleasant attitude.

Fantastic experience: Emily is a superstar! I've been seeing Emily for the past months after injuring my foot while running and she has been so helpful so far. I can already feel a big improvement. Emily is really great in what she does and always so friendly and understandable.

Fantastic experience: Emily is remarkable, I have had a couple of sports related injuries over the years and have always found her physiotherapy to get straight to the heart of the issue and in a very clear and supportive way got me back on track. I recently strained my back and she helped me to modify my workouts, build my confidence back but most importantly keep me moving. I have felt Emily is completely on your side and her goal is to get to back to what ever it is you love doing. I cannot recommend her services enough, thanks for everything you have done Emily.

Fantastic experience: Went to see Emily with a bad back which had been flaring up regularly. When I eventually went I could hardly move and was struggling to do any resistance training. Emily gave me excellent advice and weekly exercises plus a fantastic massage. After following her advice my back is so much better and I am now back training and deadlifted 45kg this week. I would highly recommend Emily, such a lovely person too.

Fantastic experience: Emily has helped me get back to running in the hills again following a knee injury. She works a lot on strengthening up the whole area rather than only targeting the specific injury to reduce chance of injury going forwards. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Emily has been a star! I hurt my left shoulder before Christmas and after a couple of months of rest, I still couldn’t do much in or out of the gym with it.

Emily has been flexible with my sessions and her lush personality means I’ve always been comfortable during my appointments!

Emily was recommended to me as a physio that didn't stop you from doing exercise which appealed to me. We focussed on building overall leg strength back. The exercises were the right level of challenging and together with gym work I have definitely seen an improvement working with Emily. I was able to start running again and gradually build the distance. Thanks Emily.

Fantastic experience: Went with a shoulder ligament injury from rugby, fortnightly visits and keeping up with the exercises had me back to playing in 14 weeks. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: My main hobby is running. This year, I have experienced a couple of injuries and setbacks following these. Emily has been helpful, supportive and kind, working on a rehab programme to fix these and flexibly adapting it around the different life issues which have occurred for me this year.

Fantastic experience: Working with Emily to get my achilles tendon stronger to support my running has been everything I hoped for and more. Her friendly and encouraging manner, along with her knowledge and skill, made a big difference for me and I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend her to anyone affected by injury or pain.

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Emily enough, particularly to runners who use running to support their mental wellbeing. I went to Emily completely stressed out as knee pain was limiting and sometimes stopping me from running. I was so anxious that she was going to tell me something was wrong and I wouldn't be able to run. However, Emily really listened to me and my fears AND asked the right questions. She then used her fantastic physio knowledge to explain why I had that pain. Just knowing why relieved a lot of my stress. This helped me to completely trust her and after some hard work, I now run pain free and I'm on track to run further and faster than before. Thank you so much Emily!

Fantastic experience: Emily is really friendly and puts you at ease straight away. I was having a niggling pain in my right leg when on walks, in particular up and down hills.

By the 3rd session I could really feel the difference and am able to enjoy pain-free walking again which is fab! I highly recommend Emily as a physiotherapist, very professional and someone who knows her stuff!

Fantastic experience: I have now seen Emily on three occasions for a sports massage during/post-marathon training and each time I have walked out feeling a lot better than when I walked in! She is very knowledgable and professional but also very approachable and always takes the time to listen and focus on any problem areas. I highly recommend her!

Fantastic experience: Emily is a great physio and quickly found the problem with my shoulder which had been niggling for almost a year. From only working with her for a roughly about 5 months with either 1 or 2 sessions a month my progress has come along quickly before putting shirts on and putting seat belts on was hard work and painful now I find myself shoulder pressing, cleat and pressing 30kg even bench press I couldn’t do before I started because of my pain and doing all of the above exercises is something I wouldn’t have thought I would be doing so soon especially with the weight Im lifting which is even more surprising and shows how much working with Emily has helped my injury
