The Physio Station

Fantastic experience: Having a really difficult time with a rotator cuff injury and ripped tendons but Addita has helped me incredibly. Her patience and expertise is second to none. Thank you Addita!

Fantastic experience: Really friendly. Treatment effective so didn't need last 2 sessions. Highly recommend

Negative experience: A poor service for the price you pay. If you want a comprehensive sports injury assessment pay the extra money and go elsewhere. I saw Aditi for an initial consult following a knee injury. I was late by 9 minutes going in and almost 10 early coming out (for a 45 minute consult), which didn’t set the tone particularly well. Having a good understanding of anatomy and having seen different physio’s before, I have always experienced a thorough assessment which has included using the non-injured side as a reference. This was not done at all. There were occasions where I had asked for physiological understanding of why my pain was presenting, which returned somewhat mediocre answers with limited scientific principle. To finish, I was prescribed some exercises to go away and complete. However no demonstration or practice attempts were completed in the consult (despite having almost 10m remaining). This is something I have always been used to elsewhere. Overall an underwhelming visit. Walked out feeling I was better off saving the £58 initial consult and using it towards a more thorough sports injury assessment.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic appointment. Lovely lady with lots of knowledge and took time to ensure my daughter understood everything. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service, very professional, and friendly, had quite a bit of discomfort in the neck,but a few weeks of treatment, pain free,highly recommended,

Fantastic experience: Very professional and careful. Highly recommend!

Negative experience: Just travelled 2 hours to be told the physio is ill. Not even the offer of a follow up appointment. What a great way to conduct a business.

Fantastic experience: I was very impressed with the care I received at The Physio Station from Aditi. After having a few treatments and following an exercise programme, my aging knees are rejuvenated and I have a full range of movement once again. Thank you very much.

Fantastic experience: Aditi Shah is an outstanding physiotherapist who provides truly holistic care. Her extensive background in both physiotherapy and sports therapy is a huge asset. If you're looking for someone with a strong work ethic and a commitment to your well-being, The Physio Station is the place to go.

Fantastic experience: Dr Aditi Shah is fantastic. She’s extremely professional and knowledgeable when helping me to recover after a car accident. Her very friendly manner put me at ease straight away and I improved with each treatment. Thank you

Fantastic experience: Adidi is incredible ! I recently attended a physiotherapy appointment and had a very positive experience. From the beginning, Adidi was welcoming, professional, and clearly knowledgeable. She took the time to listen to my concerns, assess my condition thoroughly, and explain the treatment plan in a way that was easy to understand. She applied the TENS machine, explaining how it works and what sensations to expect, adjusted the settings to suit my pain threshold and constantly checked in to ensure I was feeling okay. The clinic was clean, well-organized, and ran on time, which added to the overall professionalism of the experience. Highly recommend to anyone dealing with pain, injury, or mobility issues. I'm looking forward to continuing treatment and seeing further improvements.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding physiotherapy by a specialist. Very welcoming and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend the physio station. A+

Fantastic experience: Aditi is excellent at her job. I’ve been struggling with tennis elbow for sometime but I’m now on the road to recovery. Great communication if you need to change an appointment. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Aditi was very helpful and knowledgeable

Fantastic experience: She is amazing, so gentle and lovely! Makes me feel so at easy with my physio

Negative experience: Extremely disappointing, especially at this price point. Won’t be returning and definitely won’t be recommending. Paid £58 for what was supposed to be a 45-minute physio session. I only got 30 minutes — no explanation, just abruptly ended. On top of that, all I was given were a few basic stretches I could’ve easily found on YouTube. What makes this even more frustrating is that my partner recommended this place to me — she got proper ultrasound treatment for similar muscular pain. I was expecting the same level of care, but it felt like I was just being processed as quickly as possible. Waste of time and waste of money frankly.

Fantastic experience: Excellent physio. Physio named aditi told me she has gone for olympics, was working as a physiotherapist at england hockey team and many more international matches. So based in that and the treatment i have received i can say she is the best at the job. Definitely recommended to everyone 10/10.

Negative experience: Physio was great, however, despite repeatedly asking and after 2 visits I was not able to obtain a receipt to pass onto my health insurance. Meaning I am now out of pocket.

Fantastic experience: Aditi is great and super helpful! She was really patient with my elderly grandmother and also very quickly diagnosed and addressed my leg injury (I’m a long distance runner). Cannot recommend enough. 10 stars instead of five!

Fantastic experience: Started with frozen shoulder problem treatment all good so far Aditi doing a great job to get more movement in the shoulder by giving me exercises to do

Fantastic experience: I recently had a physio appointment, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the experience! From the moment I walked in, the clinic had such a welcoming and professional atmosphere. The physiotherapist took the time to truly understand my concerns. During the session, they did a thorough assessment, asking all the right questions about my injury and lifestyle. The treatment plan they suggested felt tailored to my needs, and I could immediately feel the difference in my mobility after just one session. They also gave me personalized exercises to work on at home, making sure I understood each one. The best part was how knowledgeable and attentive the physiotherapist was. They not only explained the science behind the treatment but also made sure I felt comfortable throughout the process. I left the appointment feeling more confident in my recovery and grateful for their expertise. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Just had my first consultation for physio regarding a broken humerus and so far I am impressed with the knowledge, service and advice received.

Fantastic experience: Helpful advice and very competent treatment.

Fantastic experience: Most impressed with Aaron and The Physio Station at Sturminster Newton. He is friendly, professional and clearly has a deep knowledge of physiotherapy. He sorted my strained lower back very quickly and efficiently and I highly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: I've been to Aaron a few times. He's very charming but more importantly he knows his stuff and has helped me enormously. I would certainly recommend him to anyone with any type of injury.

Fantastic experience: My husband has had cause to use Aaron's services on a few occasions. Aaron is very professional. He responds quickly to appointment requests and there is a short waiting time. His practice is accessible, clean and private. Aaron's treatment and advice is highly effective and he would recommend Aaron to anybody without any hesitation.

Fantastic experience: I have been having treatment for around 6 weeks for my plantar fasciitis and in this time Aaron has shown great professionalism and has a very caring nature. My foot problem is considerably better and this is all down to advice from him and the correct treatment. I highly recommend The Physio Station

Fantastic experience: Aaron has worked wonders with my golfers elbows. The shockwave treatment has enabled me to continue to play golf when I thought at one stage that I would have to give it up. I thoroughly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Aaron and his business at the physio station. After being in pain for over a year following whiplash injury, my pain eased quickly following his thorough assessment and care. I only wish I had been referred to him much earlier. Highly professional at all times and caring. Very easy to park opposite. I cannot thank you enough Aaron. Good luck in the future

Fantastic experience: I had a problem with my shoulder and had seen an NHS physio but when there didn't seem much improvement, on the recommendation of two friends who had been to Aaron for treatment, tried The Physio Station. Literally there was improvement after one session, less pain and an understanding of the cause. After two sessions, I could go virtually all day without medication. I don't like massages but am converted. Aaron put me at ease and literally worked wonders. I wish I had gone much sooner I would have saved weeks of pain.

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience from start to finish. Aaron is nothing but professional and incredibly skilled at what he does. I went to see Aaron after struggling with tennis elbow for a few months. Iv gone from barely capable of picking up a cup of Tea to almost back to the gym completing upper body workouts again. Highly recommend. Thankyou Aaron

Fantastic experience: Aaron was professional, friendly and really helpful. His treatment and exercises helped immensely and would definitely return if another injury arises!

Fantastic experience: I booked an appointment which was really quick and easy in the beginning of January. I visited Aaron worried about having posterior tibial tendonitis and that I would be out of my running training, but he put me at ease straight away. We went through some exercises I could do and I really appreciated how he showed me what to do and then we went through it together. Fantastic service and I'm back to my usual miles now- cheers Aaron! :)

Fantastic experience: I visited Aaron after suffering from bursitis in my leg and hip along with plantar fasciitis in my foot for a few years.I had been to other physios and chiropractors beforehand with no luck in easing the pain. After just a few sessions I’m almost pain free. I have also just had my first pulse therapy session and can already feel a difference. I have found Aaron helpful, understanding and honest and can’t recommend him highly enough. Hayley

Fantastic experience: Asked Aaron for help due to Hamstring problems. I was advised the recovery could take 3 to 4 months and wasn't a quick fix. I followed his physio recommendations absolutely and was sceptical initially as no change . However I continued and after 4 weeks, became aware that my injury was slowly improving . Now, after 2 months I am back to normal and doing maintenance physio, as advised. I found Aaron approachable, professional and caring.

Fantastic experience: Aaron has helped me to considerably improve my nobility by guiding me through a series of exercises. This has improved my mobility and confidence,

Fantastic experience: After injuring my back I made an appointment to see Aaron at the Physio Station here in Sturminster Newton. He managed to fit me in within a few days and I found Aaron to be very professional, approachable and knowledgable in his field. He gave me some good advice for ongoing exercises and consequently I made good progress and didn’t need any further treatment. His reassurance was second to none. Thank you Aaron and I wish you all the best. Sandra Burt

Fantastic experience: In old age I had been sceptical of the benefits of Physiotherapy, but long term pain forced me to seek professional help with Aaron. Over the course of the treatment he kept an open mind as to the cause of the pain I was enduring. I am now in a much better place to enjoy the benefits of exercise, which of course can only be of benefit to my general health. I have no hesitation in recommending his services to anyone seeking a schedule of pain relief.

Fantastic experience: I did get appoitment very quick.The therapy I recived was given professionally with clear explanation.He explains and shows me exercises to do at home which I find very helpful.Recommend 100%

Fantastic experience: Aaron was able to quickly identify the reason for an extremely painful shoulder, which wasn't getting better itself after over a week, and after a totally wonderful deep tissue massage, I left with a few exercises to do to continue working on the problem area and a few days later, the pain is almost gone. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Aaron saved me. I needed to see someone quickly, and amazingly he managed to fit me in for a treatment for sudden and severe back pain. He used his knowledge to ease the pain and look at posture and strengthening. I highly recommend his skills, and kind disposition. I felt I was in safe knowledgeable hands. Thank you VERY much. I suspect I may need you again. Thank goodness you'll be so close.

Fantastic experience: Excellent. Probably the best physio I've seen. Not only am I now in much better condition than when I first went to see Aaron, I've learnt a huge amount from him. I went to see Aaron with two separate problems one of which was a painful shoulder that had been troubling me for months. After only three sessions and following suggestions Aaron made for exercise modifications to help it is now greatly improved. What has really impressed me about Aaron is his ability to educate and to explain why the exercises he proposed will help. His consulting room is clean, comfortable and sufficiently well equipped to be able to experiment with exercises. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Aaron.

Fantastic experience: What a lovely man Aaron is, I rang in desperation as owing to back surgery many years ago that has caused a right sided problem and also a broken ankle on the same side I was unable to walk more than 20 yards without severe pain, sadly the NHS referal was taking a while, so on seeing a post for Aaron I decided to ask him if he thought he could help me. After an indepth consultation he decided he was not going to do anything to me but gave me some exercises to do at home, well not quite 3 weeks later the improvement has been AMAZING, not saying I can run a marathon but I can get around now without so much pain and can lead a much more normal life, I did ask him for some advice over the phone and Aaron was again most helpful to me. I wish him the very best in his venture with The Physio Station and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. Thank you Aaron.

Fantastic experience: Always thought physio would be no good, but Aaron has made me think differently. Bad back for years but finally, thanks to Aaron, I’m feeling a lot better. Just stick to some exercises that are right for your problem, and Bob’s your uncle!!

Fantastic experience: Aaron has been treating me as a result of receiving whiplash due to a road accident. When I first visited him, I struggled to get my shoes on and off and was in severe pain with limited movement in my neck. I can highly recommend Aaron, as he is a kind, empathetic, knowledgeable and an understanding professional who has helped me with my recovery.

Fantastic experience: I was in a considerable amount of pain on my first visit to Aaron with all his knowledge and professional approach I only needed one more physio treatment. Aaron talked me through some excercises to continue with. The treatment room was extremely clean and well equipped. All Covid-19 procedures was followed faultlessly.

Fantastic experience: I had been having lots of pain and mobility problems for a long time, Aaron listened and took onboard lifestyle etc, his advice and exercise routines have improved these issues, brilliant, thank you

Fantastic experience: Very professional and friendly, highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I had a spine fracture and i have received fantastic treatment from Aaron, I'm almost back to normal, swimming 10K week. Thanks Aaron and best of luck with your lovely new clinic in Sturminster Newton.

Fantastic experience: I had been struggling with a bad shoulder on and off for the past 10 years, spent a fortune on all kinds of treatment, and nothing seemed to sort my shoulder out. One visit to the Physio Station and I could not believe the results, Aaron gave me exercises to work with and hey presto the results have been amazing. I cannot rate Aaron high enough, I have recommended him to many friends and would urge anyone in pain to see Him

Fantastic experience: I can absolutely recommend The Physio Station. Following a back injury at work and prolonged lower back pain, the therapist I have received treatment from is Aaron Hergest. Aaron really took the time to listen to me as I explained my symptoms. He took great care in assessing my needs and following up with the appropriate treatment. At all times I have felt extremely well cared for and totally confident in Aaron's knowledge, expertise, dedication and professionalism. Aaron really takes the time to explain the cause of the pain or injury and what treatment/exercises are necessary and how they will help. He even took the trouble to email me short, easy to understand videos of each exercise prescribed which makes it much easier to 'get it right' when I'm home as I tend to be a tad forgetful! Following a course of sessions, my back is SO much improved. I was lucky enough to have appointments with Aaron a couple of years ago following damage I'd done to my ankle. With Aaron's patience, skill, kindness and encouragement, and with me adhering to the phsysio exercises, my ankle is perfect again to the extent, I can't even remember which ankle it was! The Physio Station is a great practice - exceedingly helpful and caring professionals, well equipped treatment facilities, convenient location and easy to park. Thank you Aaron & The Physio Station for keeping me mobile and enjoying life!

Fantastic experience: Aaron is a really good, fully qualified and knowledgeable Physiotherapist. I work in Construction and my job has caused a lot of problems in my neck and shoulders. I've tried many different therapists and Aaron is the first one to have made such a big difference to the pain I've been having. Highly recommended.
