Our comment from PhysioFinder.net about NV Physiotherapy:

Personalized Sports and Clinical Physiotherapy in Chorley

NV Physiotherapy, located in the heart of Chorley town centre, has established itself as a premier destination for patients seeking expert physiotherapy and rehabilitation. The clinic is praised for its modern, clean premises and convenient location with ample free parking. The team, which includes physiotherapists Siobhan, Glen, Emma, and the frequently commended Nathan, is recognized for delivering high-quality, hands-on care that combines clinical expertise with a genuinely warm and supportive approach.

Expertise in Orthopedic and Sports Conditions

The center specializes in treating a wide array of musculoskeletal and sports-related injuries. Patients consistently report positive outcomes for conditions such as sciatica, lower back pain, knee injuries, ankle sprains, and shoulder impingements. The physiotherapists are noted for their ability to quickly identify the root cause of pain and movement restrictions, rather than just treating surface symptoms. This is particularly valued by athletes and active individuals looking to return to rugby, running, hiking, and other physical activities with confidence.

  • Sports Rehabilitation: Tailored recovery plans for muscle pulls, tendonitis, and joint instability.
  • Chronic Pain Management: Long-term support for persistent neck, back, and hip issues.
  • Geriatric Mobility: Specialized home visits and exercises to restore independence, such as stair climbing for elderly patients.
  • Preventative Care: Advice and maintenance sessions to help active individuals avoid future injuries.

A Holistic and Educational Approach

What truly sets NV Physiotherapy apart is the emphasis on patient education and empowerment. Physiotherapists take the time to explain the underlying mechanics of injuries, ensuring patients understand their condition and the rationale behind each treatment. This transparency helps build trust and encourages active participation in the recovery process. The treatment plan typically combines manual therapy, such as sports massages and joint mobilizations, with practical, home-based exercise regimes. Patients appreciate that the exercises are simple, effective, and designed to be done independently between visits.

Patient-Centered Care and Trust

The reviews highlight a consistent theme of exceptional interpersonal care. Patients describe the team as not only highly knowledgeable but also approachable, polite, and genuinely invested in their well-being. Many notes mention the importance of the physiotherapist listening attentively and providing reassurance, which is crucial for patients recovering from acute trauma or long-term pain. Whether dealing with a new sprain or managing a chronic injury, patients feel supported throughout their journey. The clinic’s ability to offer short-notice appointments and flexible scheduling further enhances the user experience, making it a trusted choice for both acute issues and ongoing maintenance.

Fantastic experience: I visited NV Physiotherapy in Chorley around six weeks ago after being diagnosed with sciatica affecting the right side of my back. I was treated by Siobhan, and honestly couldn’t have asked for a better physiotherapist. The advice, exercises and hands-on treatment she provided were excellent and she took the time to explain everything clearly and make me feel at ease. My back is feeling significantly better and I’m now moving normally again. A huge thanks to Siobhan for all her help. If the sciatica returns I won’t hesitate to return to NV Physiotherapy. I would highly recommend Siobhan and the team to anyone needing physio treatment.

Fantastic experience: Nathan worked wonders for me with an IT band issue. Would 100% recommend to anyone. Now I can play rugby and train for a race with so much less pain. Thanks Nathan.

Mirren Addison Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to NV Physio for a little while now and I honestly can’t recommend Glen enough! He really takes the time to understand what you’re going through and always comes up with the best solutions for any problems or issues I’ve been experiencing. What I really appreciate is that at every appointment he checks in and asks how I’ve been getting on with the exercises he’s given me. It makes such a difference feeling supported and listened to. The sports massages Glen provides target exactly the areas that need the most attention, and I always leave feeling like a new person!

Tania Belcher Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Glen has been really helpful, giving me an ongoing exercise plan, following a comprehensive assessment of my back issues. He took the time to listen and provided reassurance.

Simon AJ Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Attended NV physio twice for two different issues. Both times had good experiences with knowledgeable friendly physios, first time with Nathan and the second time with Siobhan. In both cases they quickly got to the root cause of the problem and provided advice on exercises and steps to follow to resolve the issue. After a couple of follow up sessions I was pretty much back to normal and armed with a bit of knowledge to try and prevent any future recurrence. Thank you!

Ashton Cooper Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Nate has been brilliant in helping me recover from my knee injury. From the first session, he took the time to properly assess the issue, explain what was going on, and lay out a clear plan to get me back to full strength. Every session felt focused and purposeful, and I could see steady progress week by week. What I really appreciated was how practical and tailored the rehab was. The exercises were specific to me and my goals, and he made sure I understood how to do everything correctly so I could continue improving outside the sessions. My knee feels stronger and more stable, and I have a lot more confidence in it now. I would definitely return to Nate in the future and highly recommend him to anyone dealing with an injury or wanting expert support with recovery.

Fantastic experience: I booked in with Nathan due to ongoing discomfort and pain in my shoulder. Nathan was able to diagnose the problem, work on the affected area and provide me with exercise to do in the gym and at home to help. Following 2 appointments and 5weeks rehab I am now pain free. Thankyou.

Helen Hourigan Published on Google

Fantastic experience: After falling downstairs banging my back several times Nathan was able to get me moving. His gentle and caring approach was wonderful, he gave me some stretching exercises to do which have really worked! I would highly recommend NV Physiotherapy

David Roberts Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Nathan enough talked me through the problem and how he was going to solve it, hopefully won't need to use him again but if ever I need physio in the future I'm using NV Physiotherapy

Fantastic experience: My mum recently suffered with sciatica, Nathan was brilliant, he knew exactly what to do and really helped her, he was a lovely person to get to know my mum said too.

Mr Gobies Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Went to see Nathan for Sports Massage as my shoulder was extremely tight from lots of swimming and weightlifting. Eased up instantly and made me way more flexible within one session, would definitely recommend and plan to get it done more frequently in future!

ELS Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Emma highly enough! From the moment I walked in, I was immediately impressed by their professionalism and expertise. I’ve had my share of sports-related aches and pains, but after just one session with Emma, I felt a remarkable difference. They took the time to listen to my concerns and worked with me to target specific areas of tension. Their knowledge of the body and technique was evident as they expertly worked through tight muscles and knots, using just the right amount of pressure to relieve pain while also promoting relaxation. It’s clear that Emma is incredibly skilled and truly passionate about helping people heal and perform at their best. Whether you’re a weekend warrior or a professional athlete, I highly recommend booking a session. You’ll leave feeling refreshed, restored, and ready to take on anything!

Cindy Calverley Published on Google

Fantastic experience: After a recent fall I was really suffering with tendonitis in my fingers. A few sessions with Nathan and movement and pain dramatically eased. I'll carry on with the exercises I was given. Thank you Nathan

Elizabeth Hayman Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I’ve have been attending appointments with Nathan to work on my neck which was extremely tight and causing me alot of pain and discomfort. From the first appointment, my neck pain instantly felt better and knew that Nathan would be able to help me. I attended a few more appointments and in between them I managed to do my exercises that Nathan had demonstrated and gave me to do. Nathan was professional from start to finish, he’s extremely knowledgeable in his field of work and I felt so relaxed with him. My neck is so much better and I’ve found I’ve got so much more movement in it. I’d highly recommend anyone to book an appointment with Nathan. Thank you Nathan, keep up the fantastic work that you’re doing. I really can’t thank you enough!!

Lee Hodgkinson Published on Google

Fantastic experience: After struggling to walk for over a month with sciatica pain I popped into see Nathan. After the first session I could tell the difference. I'd previously been to chiropractors who had only made the problem worse so I was sceptical before I saw Nathan. He assured me he would have me back up and walking in no time and he did. I couldn't recommend NV Physiotherapy enough. Thanks again Nathan

Margaret Smith Published on Google

Sarah Buck Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Nathan is highly knowledgeable and explains everything very clearly. The exercises he has given me are simple but effective, and with his help I am recovering well. He also performed a sports massage in my first two sessions which instantly relieved a lot of my pain. The premises is clean and modern, and conveniently located in Chorley.

Lucy Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I was referred to Nathan by my health insurer. I had a great experience from start to finish. He knows his stuff and shows genuine care. He assessed my symptoms and the underlying causes of my pain and now I’m pain free and have been for a number of weeks. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I Had problems with my Shoulder. Nathan was great, listened to my issues to fully understand our problems. He was attentive and dealt with it until my shoulder was healed Would certainly recommend him

Jon Royle Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I came across NVPhysiotherapy after I couldn't get a timely appointment at either of the usual places I would go for treatment. Very conveniently located in Chorley Town Centre with ample parking across the road, free for the duration of an appointment. Nathan has offered effective treatment for my issue and was flexible enough to discuss and work with me when I presented with multiple issues over the course of the treatment of 4 sessions. Nathan is hands on and practical in his approach. Treatment was a combination of massage therapy, easy exercise regime to do at home, and also acupuncture on the final appointment, all with good effect. Informative and easy to talk to. I highly recommend. Thank you very much Nathan.

Jo Ensor Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I've been to several physios over the last 10 years, but by far Nathan at NV Physiotherapy is the absolute best. I got a warm, friendly welcome, a good explanation of what the issue is and what will help it improve. Hands on treatment, not just sat with a machine doing all the work like many physios seem to do. Very polite and respectful, really clean and tidy premises, and flexible with appointments. Wouldn't go anywhere else now!

Karen Burgess Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended NV Physiotherapy. Professional, knowledgeable, excellent care and advice given.

Fantastic experience: Nathan was recommended to me by friends as I had tendonitis in one of my toes which was impairing my walking and hiking. With Nathan's knowledge, exercise plan and healing hands my toe feels so much better and I am able to enjoy the outdoors once again! Not only was he professional and extremely knowledgeable but he is an exceptionally pleasant and courteous young man. 100% recommend using NV Physiotherapy should you need assistance! Thank you once again, Nathan.

Fantastic experience: After pulling my back at the gym I was excruciating pain and was really struggling to walk, stand up straight and do general day to day things. After just seeing Nathan once for a massage I felt brand new. I’m now back to normal and following post treatment advice and I feel amazing. Thank you so much Nathan!

Fantastic experience: Nathan has been working on my back for the last 6 weeks after struggling in pain for so long. I feel like a new man compared with how i was at the start. Highly recommended

Leon Andrews Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Nathan has been putting me back together for the last 6 months. Super knowledgable, listens well and importantly explains why certain things are happening which is really important in developing your own understanding of injuries/rehab. Would definitely recommend.

Helen Howard Published on Google

Fantastic experience: We found Nathan about 12 months ago when my Dad was recovering from a broken hip. Dad was 88 at the time this happened. He had been recovering for 6 months at my sister's bungalow in Staffordshire as he was unable to climb the stairs in his own home. When he returned to his own home he had a stairlift fitted to use on a day to day basis, but one of his main goals was to be able to climb stairs again. He wanted to be able to use the stairs if he was visiting friends, or out and about, and also to allow him to see some renovations I had had done. We approached Nathan to see if this was something he was interested in, and also if he could visit Dad at home. Nathan visited Dad at home for a couple of weeks, and gave him some exercises to build up the strength in his hip and glutes. In addition to this Nathan was fantastic at building Dad's confidence up, and helping him to see just how well he was recovering. In terms of learning to climb the stairs again our additional problem was there was no room on Dad's staircase due to the stairlift.. This didn't phase Nathan he was happy to have the sessions at my house. He used the stairs in my house, and at first Nathan showed us how to do this with 2 people assisting Dad. As his ability and confidence improved this reduced to one person, and eventually Dad could do the stairs on his own. Dad went from not having the confidence to climb one step, to climbing 2 sets in my house to be able to see our loft conversion. Me and my family cannot recommend Nathan enough. He is friendly and approachable, his whole approach is centred around the individual goal of his clients. The physical and mental improvements he has made to Dad's quality of life cannot be measured. Dad has recently started seeing Nathan again after having a few niggles, and it is great to be able to have someone so knowledgeable to turn to.

Rosie Guest Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I started following NV Physiotherapy on Instagram and found the videos and information he was sharing really useful! Every now and again my back and shoulders are really sore from sitting at a desk all day and just having a few physio sessions regularly really sorts this out! Along with following Nathan’s tips and advice! Always receive an absolutely great service and would highly recommend!

Stephen Bailey Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Reached out to Nathan following a niggling Achilles issue that was threatening my fitness regime. Nathan instantly diagnosed the problem, presented the solution and applied the relevant treatment required to eradicate the pain to help me get back to full fitness. Really impressed with Nathan’s knowledge, professionalism and delighted with the outcome.

pamela errington Published on Google

Fantastic experience: From the start of my treatment and to the end of my treatment Nathan was very informative and reassuring with regards to what treatment I needed to get my ankle stronger and in less pain. He worked through an exercise routine with me and worked hard in helping me to build up strength back in my ankle and to reduce the swelling. He was very professional and very approachable. He is also extremely knowledgable. I would highly recommend Nathan.

Susan Davis Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I visited Nathan with a problem with my hamstring. I was due to go on holiday and I was really struggling to walk and stairs were so painful. He gave me a thorough assessment and gently stretched my hamstring. He gave me excellent advice and I am on holiday able to walk in no pain. Thank you.

Mark Jackson Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Thanks Nathan for seeing me at short notice with my back problem last week. One week on having followed you expert advice and treatment I can move again without pain and any discomfort. Won’t hesitate in recommending your professional advice and treatment to anyone. Thanks again Mark

Simone Palin Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Excellent treatment and advice to help resolve my knee pain that I have been plagued with for a number of years. Nathan was friendly and very knowledgeable.

Paul Cockram Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Excellent skilled treatment and advice for my twisted ankle. It has recovered much quicker than it would have done. A good experience!

Robert Pilkington Published on Google

Fantastic experience: Came to see Nathan with a knee injury, within 3 sessions he’d completely turned me around and now I’m back running and looking to start football again very soon. Very helpful and friendly guy who’s focused on treating the injury and isn’t going to string you along just to get some more money. Great clean shop as well in a good location with plenty parking opposite the road, definitely recommend for any treatment required

Angie McAlpine Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I recently pulled a muscle in my lower back mucking out a stable. Previously I would have gone with home remedies such as deep heat and hot baths resulting in months of pain. Having recently become a horse owner I have learnt that when horses pull something or even just look sore we call physio straight away. So this time I decided I would see a physio straight away. I hurt myself Monday night, Tuesday morning couldn't manage to sit in my office chair. Nathan managed to see me Tuesday afternoon, amazing treatment, Wednesday could sit at my desk. I had one more treatment on the Friday and I was quickly back in pain free working order. For the price of two sessions I was pain free and back to living life within a week. Never again will I suffer with an injury I will be straight to Nathan for physio. He is friendly, professional and knowledgeable.

Andrew Harris Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I came to see Nathan after a bad knee injury. He was very thorough with my assessment, providing me with practical advice and an excellent recovery plan which has done miracles on my knee. Within a few sessions, the pain had eased dramatically and I now feel confident when active which was my main concern. What stuck with me is the level of care and continuous support he gave me throughout my recovery. I highly recommend Nathan and his incredible level of expertise to everyone.

Cara Murray Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I could not recommend Nathan NV Physiotherapy more highly. Through a couple of sessions my back pain has eased tenfold and Nathan was so informative, knowledgeable and professional providing advice and guidance throughout.

Jamie Gorse Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I booked in with Nathan when I was experiencing multiple issues with my hips while running, and my back while doing conditioning work. I initially saw Nathan once a week at the start and after the 3-4 week mark, I could feel the benefits long term as the hip tightness and upper back injuries had stopped. I now seen Nathan once every 2 weeks to ensure I’m at my physical best as injuries in the past have halted my physical progression and It is honestly not worth the risk. Would recommend to anyone with injuries or anyone who wants to be at their physical best shape in sport or training.

James Ord Published on Google

Fantastic experience: I have been receiving regular treatment by Nathan at NV Physiotherapy for well over a year for a long term neck injury. Nathan is professional, approachable and extremely knowledgeable. He has worked wonders in helping me to increase the mobility in my neck that has been a long term problem for me and help with pain management. He is informed about clinical developments and is open to new interventions within his field which have all helped me significantly. I can wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a Physio.
