“I had three months of physiotherapy with Dave Mercy starting in June 2025 to help rehabilitate my right foot following a medically necessary operation to break and re-position my heel bone following a diagnosis tibialis posterior tendinopathy with a split tear. The physiotherapy started approx three months after surgery. Dave helped me to progress from being in an air-cast boot on my first visit and unable to put my weight through my foot, onto massages to reduce and eventually eradicate the post surgical swelling in my foot, onto a range of exercises in the gym to exercise, stretch and strengthen my foot and allow me to complete everyday activities that I can now once again enjoy. The support that Dave provided was comforting in the early days and then as the gym exercises progressed, Dave was encouraging and challenged me to develop my foot strength, flexibility, and gave me the confidence to put my full weight through my foot and complete a wide range of exercises that I didn’t think would be possible. I am walking well and whilst the finer aspects of my foot recovery will take longer to achieve, for now I can walk without the pain I previously had, which is a massive achievement. Thanks Dave, you had a hugely positive impact on my level of recovery!”

“In all honesty, I’m still trying to get my head around how someone can be so brilliant at their job. I’d seen this noted in the other reviews, but Val really is so incredibly knowledgeable and comprehensive. I had been nursing a running-related injury for just under 3 months, with little to no progress working with another physio. Using dynamic assessment methods and a hands on approach - Val picked up on injuries old and new that were getting aggravated and flaring up. After just 2.5 hours/sessions (in under two weeks). I’m back running at intensity and distance, and was also given fantastic pointers on how to improve my running gait and efficiency. Val herself is also incredibly kind and warm, so it was a pleasure to be in her clinic. 5 stars isn’t enough - thank you!”

“I've been seeing Amy recently for an arm injury and she's been wonderful, I highly recommend her. She's been so kind, knowledgeable, professional, friendly and reassuring. She made time to see me at very short notice and worked wonders in just 20 minutes. Rather than pummel my sore muscles, she's been using acupuncture which has really helped. She's also set me exercises to do at home and adapted them to suit my specific injury. Some years ago, I saw Paul and he was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, down-to-earth and friendly, so I recommend him too. Everyone here, from the receptionists to the other staff I've encountered, have been lovely. A huge thank you!”
