With many of you starting on your marathon training journey, here's a reminder of some of our tips for preventing and. Chris has over 25 years post graduate physiotherapy experience, following qualification from Brighton University in 1993.
At the initial consultation the physiotherapist will first ask a range of questions to determine the exact history of the complaint and past medical history. There will then be an objective examination, where the therapist will employ a range of observations, physical movements and tests to more specifically establish the structures and causes of the problem.

I’ve seen Chris for various sports injuries and he’s always been completely professional and sympathetic and has managed to make me better each time. I’d highly recommend him!

Getting in and out of the car, the first time, to travel to the clinic was very difficult. Chris listened, as I tried to describe where the pain was, then began to treat the problem. After each treatment my mobility increased, and I am now able to garden and exercise again.

Having presented with a frozen shoulder a few months ago, Chris quickly diagnosed the problem and set to work relieving my symptoms. His good advice and treatment have allowed me to reduce and then remove the pain and restricted movement very quickly. Chris is also very easy to get on with during the treatment sessions and has always clearly explained what he is doing and what my options are. I highly recommend his services.

After seeing a knee specialist and another physio who were both unable to diagnose the problem, Chris pinpointed the issue at our first session and treated my knee providing pain relief after 2 years of discomfort. In parallel he also helped me recover from hip replacement surgery. He is incredibly knowledgeable and clearly very passionate about his work not to mention being a lovely man. I would highly recommend his clinic.

I have a tricky issue thats been difficult to diagnose, but Chris has been reassuring and patient with me. He's been more than helpful, and given me all sorts of exercises to do to help, along with being professional and kind. I would highly reccommend.

Earlier this year I injured my shoulder skiing and had real difficulties using that arm day to day. After making little progress with a physiotherapist at work, I started to see Chris at Sanderstead. Chris was able to make an immediate difference. I had a tear in a tendon which is quite a slow healing injury. I continued to see Chris over the course of the summer and I saw steady improvements throughout that time. I've now fully recovered.
Chris is very friendly and clearly extremely knowledgeable about his profession. He is happy to talk through the details of what is actually going on with your

Chris is v v helpful , reassuring and personable. He helped me just after I came out of hospital and reassured me about what I needed to do and what not to do. He's not pushy but he makes sure he understands what is needed and passed it on to me in an understandable way. Very encouraging person.

This is an excellent practice. Chris was quick to suggest I visited a specialist straight away for a diagnosis rather than having a lengthy course of treatment first and then referring me on.
Chris's initial thoughts on the condition proved to be spot on and his early advice to seek a specialist opinion and scan meant the issue was identified and solved quickly through a surgical procedure saving me weeks of inconvenience.
Chris's post operative physio was targeted and effective and I believe played a crucial role in making a speedy recovery from knee surgery.
All in all, thoroughly recommended

I have received nothing but 1st class treatment from Chris. My shoulder injury isn't a straight forward one but from my first appointment I have seen an improvement. The treatment from Chris along with the exercises he recommend have definitely helped me with my recovery. All treatment was fully explained so that I knew exactly what was going on and all questions I have had have been answered. Brilliant Physio which I would strongly recommend.

Following six weeks physio on the NHS a few years ago with very limited results, I noticed that Sanderstead Physiotherapy had opened up on the corner of Glossop Road. It was the best decision I ever made. Not only was the treatment effective, several years later I still go once a month to loosen my back. Chris Mallows is an excellent physiotherapist and I have not hesitated in the past, nor will I in the future, to recommend him to others. The fees are very reasonable as well.
