Hardy Performance Physiotherapy - Warwick

Fantastic experience: Matt is simply the best in the business. I’ve been to numerous physios over the years with being active in the gym and playing sports and having my fair share of injuries. I first saw Matt in November last year for a neck strain and only needed one session. I herniated my L5S1 disc in May this year and knew straight away that I needed to go and see him. His approach, knowledge and all round personality is unmatched. He talks you through the anatomy of the body so you feel well informed, whilst also addressing not just the acute region of the injury, but the potential underlying cause(s). I have made a huge amount of progress in such a short space of time with an injury like this and can honestly say it would not have been possible without him. Thank you Matt, you’re a gem.

Fantastic experience: I went to see Matt following a running injury and I had a great experience from the first session where he worked out exactly what was wrong and throughout the my recovery. At each step Matt was really knowledgeable and clearly explained what I needed to do and why each and now I'm back running completely pain free. Would recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve needed Matt’s help on two occasions. First was an ankle problem a year ago. Resolved in one session. Miraculous! Sought his expertise again last week for my knee. Solved in one session again. He knows his stuff and doesn’t over complicate. Can highly recommend. I’m booking him to design two whole body exercise plans for me. One for the gym and one to do at home.

Fantastic experience: Matt has got me from broken leg to back grappling in under 5months. Couldn’t recommend the team highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Wanted an appointment with Matt who sorted out my sister’s back and neck problem so was a little disappointed that I had to see someone else. I shouldn’t have given it a second thought. Will is being absolutely fantastic and has got me mobile again. Now it’s a process of gaining strength and freeing up my hips and muscles that have been giving me so much agony. So not over yet, but I’m on track and doing all the exercises. I hate them, but they’re working.

Fantastic experience: I booked in for physio with Will, after herniating a disc in my spine. The sessions have been fantastic and he's provided me with an excellent long term plan in order for me to be able to hopefully get back to my sports teams. He's made an extra effort to check up between sessions to ensure I understand and am comfortable with the exercises. It is so helpful working alongside someone who is so like minded, and appreciates that recovery isn't easy! Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Booked in for recovery following a car accident - absolutely brilliant experience, Matt coached me through each stage and put plans in place for continued recovery after the sessions stopped. Very well structured and really nice people, will definitely keep them in mind if I need any future physio for something else! I cannot recommend them highly enough, undoubtably the best choice for physiotherapy! Thanks again for all of your help Matt!!

Fantastic experience: Matt is brilliant. He quickly identified the root cause of a lower back niggle I’d been struggling with and explained everything clearly. He gave me targeted exercises and a workout routine to strengthen the right muscles so it wouldn’t come back. He genuinely wants you to recover properly and not need repeat visits for the same problem. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: As I am someone with hypermobility who has always been very active, injuries have been relatively common for me throughout my life. As a result, I have seen many different physical therapists over the years. I can therefore safely say that Matt is a brilliant physio (and definitely one of the best I have seen). As an example, Matt has diagnosed some of my issues in minutes, which other therapists haven't been able to identify after weeks of treatment. Not only does Matt really know his stuff but he is also very approachable, encouraging and fun to engage with.

Fantastic experience: Awesome physio with a true understanding of how people's minds as well as bodies work. Helped me recover quickly from plantar fasciitis as well as a poorly hip and then is currently helping me with my neck and shoulders. High levels of expertise and an ability to explain complex things in simple terms so I understand the nature of my injuries and niggles. Somehow has a way of making it all seem like it's gonna be OK! Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Hardy Performance Physio to anyone unreservedly and with full confidence. In October 2024 I was in constant pain after injuring my lower back and had restricted mobility where even walking at a slow pace was painful - this injury was the latest in several injuries I have had in my lower back over the years. Over the following months, during each session, Abi assessed the condition of my lower back, gave me a set of daily exercises to do in between each physio session and changed the set of daily exercises to do between the physio sessions as my lower back improved. I am now almost pain free and on my way to having the strength and flexibility in my lower back that I have not had in a good few years, which will allow me to pursue martial arts such as Tae Kwon-Do. Abi and Hardy Performance Physio are 100% recommended.

Fantastic experience: Abigail helped me recover from back ache. I play tennis regularly and Abi guided me with exercises that help in my game and keep me fit. Abi is professional, informative making for quality sessions

Fantastic experience: Matt at Hardy Performance has been outstanding in helping me recover from a long term hip injury, lateral injury, and shoulder injury. His approach was both professional and highly personalized. He developed tailored training plans that allowed me to adjust my gym workouts and focus on rehabbing the muscle groups that needed attention. What sets Matt apart is his genuine care and understanding. He’s always patient, listens carefully, and adapted the plan based on how I was progressing, ensuring I never push too far. His positive attitude and encouragement made every session enjoyable and motivating. Thanks to him, I’m not only back in the gym but moving better than before outside the gym. I highly recommend Matt to anyone seeking a dedicated and skilled physio! 10/10

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Matt’s excellent physio service. I consulted him a couple of months ago with a persistent hip flexor issue. It was so painful if was preventing me from walking at times. I’d tried a couple of things to improve it already but nothing had made a real difference until I found Matt. His treatment is excellent, it made an immediate difference and a couple of months in with 3-4 treatments and exercises to follow between appointments I’m in a much better place. I’m building up my walking again and am now on to strength exercises. Matt’s advice is very accessible, he is really knowledgable and makes everything easy to understand and even fun! Thanks Matt!

Fantastic experience: Wouldn't hesitate to recommend! Matt is a brilliant physio - knowledgeable, person centred, professional and passionate about what he does.

Fantastic experience: Without doubt the most professional, attentive and helpful physio practice around. Matt is the consummate professional and always has excellent advice to follow apart from the great care and attention when treating patients

Fantastic experience: Excellent treatment by Matt, highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Matt highly enough for his expertise, professionalism and exceptional bedside manners(LOL). I had been seeing Matt for about 6-7 months with knee and ankle problems and with his patience and encouragement my pains are all but gone, and I was able, on my last trip, to walk sightseeing for miles and climbed numerous steps with minimal discomfort. Matt was able to explain to me what was causing my pain and how my recovery is likely to go. Matt recommended exercises that were suitable for my condition and for my strong dislike of doing exercises, and , for most of the time, I was able to report back that I was doing those exercises and how helpful they were. At no point, Matt suggested that some of these problems could be a part of natural aging process and made me believe that my body can still respond to my wanderlust mind. All positive reviews I read before I contacted Matt were justified, and I will be recommending Matt to anyone who cares to listen.

Fantastic experience: I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Hardy Performance Physiotherapy to anyone who will listen! Having previously injured my knee twice, when it collapsed on me in the gym last summer I was terrified it would mean surgery. I found Matt online and was won over by a brilliant testimonial from an acrobat - random I know! But I love to dance, and I wanted to get back on the dance floor as soon as possible without fear that my knee would go again. Matt was amazing! He reassured me and helped build up my confidence to trust my body again. Injury isn't just physical, and I feel a bit emotional just writing this, because that sense that maybe your knee will drop you, again, is psychologically hard, as well as physically limiting. Literally step by step, with good humour, a depth of knowledge, and a very practical approach Matt helped to get me back to what I wanted to do. With all the best will in the world, I really hope that I don't need to see you again, but if I EVER have a problem, I will be back.

Fantastic experience: I would thoroughly recommend Hardy Physiotherapy as an organisation that gets results. Matt not only alleviate the pain in my shoulder but explained why it was happening which has helped me prevent it happening again

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Matt, He was absolutely brilliant - I had never been to a sports physio before and I have to say I will forever be going back if I ever have any problems again. He was brilliant, and got me back to the health I wanted to be at in great time and in a way that suited me. I feel stronger than ever, I will be recommending to anyone I know. Thanks again Matt!

Fantastic experience: 2 years ago i consulted Matt about persistent sciatica , had massage & exercises , have been free of pain ever since

Fantastic experience: My son is a 15 year old gymnast who competes at a high level. He has seen Matt on a number of occasions with back and rotator cuff issues. Matt has worked on the areas he was having issues with and gave him specific exercises to do. My son was back able to train and compete again within weeks of seeing him. He really makes you feel at ease and my son won’t go to anyone else. We really can’t thank Matt enough for what he has done and I would highly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: I was recommended to visit by my golf instructor after getting conflicting information and a bit of lacklustre service from the NHS. Matt diagnosed the problem and gave me a recovery plan and a timetable. It’s all worked out well and I am back to full fitness. Cheers Matt

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much Matt! Matt is a star. I have seen him since 2020 and has helped me with different issues. I am planning to train for a marathon after completing a half and Matt has given me different exercises to help me address some issues. He explains things very well and he is great at massaging without pain! Great talking to him too! Thanks for putting up with me Matt :)

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Hardy Performance Physiotherapy. James has been fantastic in helping to get me back to normal after a shoulder injury and provided lots of exercises and stretches tailored to my level. Would really recommend for anyone needing a physio

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended! Matt was brilliant and such a lovely, welcoming guy! I turned out to be a right case study for him. I had three rare injuries at the same time! Matt worked his magic and gave me various exercises to do at home to speed up my recovery. 18+ months later I’m still playing the sports I enjoy, so thank you!

Fantastic experience: Without doubt the best physio I've ever been to. I first visited Hardy Performance with a chronic shoulder issue (6 years), which I was convinced was a torn rotator cuff. Matt was able to identify the root cause and gave me a highly effective training program to fix it. I've since been back for a hip flexor issue, and Matt sorted it out, where previous physios have failed. I can't recommend Hardy Performance Physio any more highly. 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Matt highly enough. I'd been struggling to walk for years and seen half a dozen physios, even had an X-ray and been diagnosed with hip impingements and degenerative wear on both sides which the NHS told me I needed surgery to resurface my hip to fix. Matt got me walking within a couple of weeks. Really glad I found Matt and I can walk without having to have surgery.

Fantastic experience: I've been having on-going back issues for a while so decided to visit Matt. Matt was very patient and clearly cares very much about helping people and fixing their injuries as soon as possible. He gave me easy to follow exercises for the gym and home to help the issue and demonstrated each one. A few sessions later, the pain is almost non-existent and I feel much better. He also has a great sense of humour and is a genuinely nice guy. I would 100% recommend Matt to anyone who needs a physio.

Fantastic experience: My 18 year old nephew has had continuous knee injuries and pain, so booked a session with Will last night. My nephew was so impressed and felt like it had helped him already. He said Will "really knows his stuff" - and is booked in again. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: Matt is extremely approachable and friendly. I asked Matt for help due to concerns about an issue with my knee. He was very patient and clearly cares very much about helping people and fixing their injuries as soon as possible, with a lot of humor thrown in there too!. He explained what he thought the issue might be, the cause and a therapeutic routine to follow in the gym or at home. Matt demonstrated and went through each of the exercises with me to ensure I understood and explained what the benefits were. I would highly recommend Matt due to his easygoing nature and professional service.

Fantastic experience: Matt is an awesome Physio. After a few years pain with a troublesome right knee (post COVID) that stopped me playing football, Matt has got me back playing after 3 weeks with no pain during the game. Matt did a really thorough diagnosis and the prescribed exercises to regain strength were just at the right level and enjoyable. Highly recommended if you need a Physio in the Warwick, Leamington, Southam and Kenilworth areas.

Fantastic experience: I came to see Matt a few months ago with shoulder and neck pain. After several sessions my pain reduced completely and the exercises and stretches that Matt suggested have been such a great help. Matt is a great physio and I would 100% recommend to anyone who requires physiotherapy or advice.

Fantastic experience: Superb service as a thorough examination is made first before any treatment and plans. It has definitely sped up my recovery on the two occasions I have had to use Matt's service. Would not go anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: Came to Matt after a knee injury previously was preventing me running longer distances. Very easy to get alone with and puts you at ease immediately. Pain free and first ultra marathon race planned start of October, all thanks to Matt.

Fantastic experience: I enjoy being active and playing sport, and have had shoulder issues for several years. It was slowly getting worse, and when it got to the point where it affected my ability to exercise, I reached out to Matt. He identified the issue right away, and following his advice I started to feel improvements within days! After just several visits once a month (which I always looked forward to, thanks to Matt's professional and welcoming approach) his help has got me back to doing things I love! Thanks Matt, I can now throw a ball, dive into a pool, and lift weights over my head again, all worry-free!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant. Matt was professional and put me at ease. He clearly knew his stuff and gave me confidence to trust him. He was excellent at listening and accurately diagnosed and treated my ankle injury. He gave me hope when I didn't have any. Hoping I don't need physio again but if I ever do I wouldn't hesitate to go back to Matt. X

Fantastic experience: Have been to Matt with a knee problem and then a shoulder injury. Would highly recommend him,as he is very knowledgeable and keeps you informed as to what the problems are. Great sense of humour while pushing through the pain barrier. Thanks Matt for your professionalism and encouragement.

Fantastic experience: Matt is fantastic and worth every penny - he really takes the time to work with you as an individual and explain exactly what is going on and the treatment options. Easily the best physio I've ever used. 100% recommend.

Fantastic experience: Suffered for 6 months with a very painful shoulder/back then finally saw the light! After only three sessions with Matt the problem was solved, and six months later and still no problems. I just wish I'd visited him a lot sooner. Would definitely recommend and wouldn't hesitate in using again if the need arises.

Fantastic experience: I came to Matt in desperate need of help due to chronic and persistent problems with the IT band. He was the fourth physio I had seen in a year and by far the best. He instils confidence through his professional and knowledgeable approach. He doesn't just tell you what is wrong, he brings you on an educational journey to understand how your body functions and what you can do to heal from and prevent further injury. I appreciate his honesty and transparency - it takes incredible professional ethics and humility to know your limits - and Matt has it all. If you are worried that he will string you along for profit sake, rest assure that won't be the case. He genuinely cares about helping people and the love for his job shines through during sessions. On top of his expertise, he understands the mental implications of experiencing long-term pain and injury, acting with understanding, compassion and as an amazing support even outside therapy hours. Thank you, Matt. Grateful for all your support and hard work to get me moving again. And for fixing Richard.

Fantastic experience: I came to Matt while suffering with crippling sciatica which was causing me agonising pain. He was very professional and thorough, first of all determining whether it was sciatica that I was suffering with, giving explanations as to what caused sciatica, and then set exercises to strengthen my back. I only ended up needing two physio sessions as I started to feel better because of the exercises, and Matt also ensured I had exercises that would help prevent sciatica from returning. Excellent physiotherapist and lovely chap!

Fantastic experience: Matt was the first Physio I have been to. Explained every phase off recovery clearly and was very knowledgeable about my injury. Had an oopsie along the way but very supportive throughout the process.

Fantastic experience: Knows what he's doing, v good experience

Fantastic experience: Great personalised service from Matt, highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Matt for a few years now. I am a reasonably active 71 year old with neuromas in both feet, resulting in not just pain but toe disfiguration and this has lead to postural imbalance. From my very first appointment Matt was able to assess the situation and create an exercise plan to bring muscle use in my lower legs into balance. That made all the difference but it is something I need to continually work at, hence the 4-6weekly appointments I continue to have. Matt does some deep tissue work on my lower legs and feet and I know this has helped keep me active. I am a multi-disciplined complementary therapist/trainer and I understand anatomy and physio therapy and I knew immediately that Matt knew his stuff. I have experienced physio before on the NHS but sadly it does not compare with seeing a good physio privately. Worth every penny! My husband was recently a client of Matt’s both before and after a hip replacement. He was very impressed with how Matt explained to him what was going on and what was needed to help him prepare for surgery and for a good recovery. Matt knew he had been an engineer and his diagrams and explanations were right up my husband’s street. A successful course of physio followed and his hip problems are a thing of the past. Once again money well spent! Both of us highly recommend Matt.

Fantastic experience: Matt recently helped me to recover after I had a replacement hip. Over far more years than I care to remember I have been to dozens of Physiotherapists in the UK, the USA and the Middle East but I have never met one who impressed more than Matt. He patiently explains what is going on in the body before outlining why and how certain exercises will help. That extra understanding provided the incentive to make sure his recommendations were followed and under his guidance the rapidity of my recovery exceeded my surgeon’s expectations.

Fantastic experience: As a dancer and an acrobat it can be really hard to find a good physio. Matt listened to everything I said carefully and was very knowledgeable and explained what was going on in my hip very clearly so I understood. He’s given me a programme to follow and I’m already seeing great results after a week. Matt was great, I would definitely recommend him.

Fantastic experience: After years of niggling calf problems I went to see Matt who through some very structured sessions and clear explanation for my own home sessions got me back to full fitness and back running regularly. I would highly recommend this very professional physiotherapy practice.

Fantastic experience: Matt has absolutely saved my sanity after he treated my neuralgic pain post covid. He has got my shoulder back into shape and greatly improved the excruciating pains I have been suffering from for many months.

Fantastic experience: Matt was very professional, helpful and friendly. Always willing to answer my weird and wonderful questions whilst I was on my road to recovery from breaking my ankle last year. I can highly recommend. Thank you Matt! "What broken ankle?" ;)

Fantastic experience: I had a problem with my knee. Matt diagnosed the issue straight away which made me feel at ease and comfortable with his actions. He also only seen me twice and recommended I completed the exercises he gave me. The issue with my knee was solved without lots of visits and the expense that goes with that . I would strongly recommend Matt he gave excellent treatment and exercises to solve my issue.

Fantastic experience: Very professional and kind guy. Helped a lot eith ny exercises.

Fantastic experience: Matt managed to fix my back pain that I've had for years in two sessions and by recommending a few exercises to do at home in between the sessions. He's really knowledgeable and was able to figure out that the pain wasn't actually caused by a weak back, which I would've never found out without him! His service is way worth the money and I recommend him to everyone, plus he's full of fun facts and great chat!

Fantastic experience: Matt is one of the best physios I've ever seen. He has helped me recover from several niggles and an injury while preparing for my first Ironman 70.3. He is knowledgeable, kind and has a great sense of humour making the sessions effective and fun. I'll definitely keep seeing him to help me in my athletic journey.

Fantastic experience: I’ve seen many different physios over the years. Matt is excellent. He is extremely knowledgeable, takes the time to really understand what’s going on so you can address the root cause and takes the time and effort to explain everything really well. As a client I’ve always felt that Matt has my best interests at heart and his advice is based on what I really need, rather than whatever is in the best interests of his business. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience with Matt. He is an outstanding physio with expert knowledge and proficient in a range of treatment strategies. He is well-informed and keeps himself completely up to date with the latest research. He personalises his treatment to the individual needs of his clients and he treats them holistically, rather than just a set of symptoms. He focusses on how everything connects together as well as the mental and psychological needs of his clients. Most importantly, he's friendly, approachable and a good laugh. I would thoroughly recommend. In fact, he was so good I've recently busted my shoulder just so I can go back and see him again.

Fantastic experience: I came to Matt when I had such a painful knee that I was struggling to drive and the pain was taking over my life. Matt was Fantastic, he listened and just knew the problem and how to help me. With in 6 weeks I'm pain free...which I'm just flabbergasted about. His exercises were adaptable and his helpful hints were great. I will continue to use his exercises as I prevent Reinjury.

Fantastic experience: I came to Matt after a few months of wrist pain which had not been improving by rest alone. In our first session Matt and I discussed the injury and he explain clearly that the wrist injury may have been a result of a previous shoulder injury. Since then we created a plan with exercises to rehabilitate both my shoulder and wrist and I'm pleased to say that it is back to normal. Matt is a very knowledgeable guy, friendly and is very good at explaining the specifics and reason why my injury happened. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: I recently found Matt online as I was experiencing more acute lower back pain than I had had previously and it was causing me difficulty in my day to day life. Having had to only see Matt a few times, it was clear that the exercises he gave were helping me greatly and helping my body in other ways get stronger too. He also started seeing my dad who has recently had a hip replacement and he raves about his services too. I don't have to see the brilliant Matt anymore unfortunately, as the exercises I've been given and am actually doing daily are enough to keep him at bay. So you could argue that I'm really fortunate to not have to see him again...The classic conundrum of a good therapist!

Fantastic experience: Excellent service. Matt is very knowledgeable. The sessions were very effective and engaging. Every time I left that place, I knew more about my problem and how to solve it. He helped me get back from chronic pelvic pain which is not an easy thing to do. On the contrary. I still practice the stretches and exercises even now, few months after finishing the therapy. Matt also got involved with making recommendations for my workplace setup, suggesting various adjustments like a sit stand desk, an ergonomic chair, independent monitor arms etc. Many many thanks for his excellent service and the great support he offered me through such a difficult time in my life. Much appreciated.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely incredible physio

Fantastic experience: Matt is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and friendly. He has assisted in recovery from a back injury and provided information to strengthen the area to prevent further issues. I would highly recommend his services.

Fantastic experience: Matt is not only super knowledgable but made sure my recovery didn't just involve doing the mundane exercises you see on the internet. I kept him on his toes with a few more injuries I picked up between appointments and he had a plan for me every time I left. As long as you do your homework he'll have you sorted in no time. A good laugh too. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant. Not only did he correct a major sciatica problem I had, but strengthened my core & posture to boot. The stretches, exercises & homework are essential. Everything was explained well, I was better than normal in a few weeks. Top bloke too. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Matt was very professional, helpful and friendly. Always willing to answer my questions. Worked alongside my PT to adjust my training accordingly. Highly recommend. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I can’t recommend Matt enough! Super knowledgable and explained everything so I understood. He has not only helped me with my shoulder but explained how my whole body has played a part in the injury. Very informative and professional.

Fantastic experience: Matt's deep knowledge and engaging sessions have already made a massive difference to me. He can explain even the most complex issues in basic terms for anyone to understand. I would highly recommend him to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Matt has been so fantastic. A real depth of knowledge with a simple way of explaining things to make it understandable. I really enjoy his sessions and would, without hesitation, recommend Matt to absolutely anyone irrespective of age or physical limitations. Everyone would benefit from time spent with Matt.
