I have been undergoing treatment for an impinged shoulder at the BH Live site, as I find it more convenient to park and is closer to me.
Both Alison & Paul have delivered a fantastic mix of both holistic and practical treatment.
As a keen squash player, it has enabled me to continue playing pain free throughout the process.
Very happy with Birchwood and will continue to use in the future.

I have been suffering with shoulder discomfort and bicep tendonitis for some time and decided to pursue a course of physio treatment to address the issue.
Paul was very knowledgeable at identifying the underlying issues with a thorough assessment of lifestyle contributory factors and mobility issues. A range of achievable and practical exercises were recommended to provide long term solutions to these issues which have resulted in impressive results. I have a clear roadmap to long term solutions to these chronic issues.
In addition to the individual exercises recommended, the muscle therapy treatments

Paul has been great in helping me recover from an injury and coming back stronger. After an initial consultation, he recommended conditioning exercises and treatment plan which has helped cure and injury that has been bothering me intermittently over a few seasons. As a result this is the first summer I’ve not had to miss out on any games!
I’d happily recommend Paul.

I came to Birchwood physio with a very painful knee. I was impressed by Alison's skill, knowledge and expertise. She listened to me, watched my movements and came up with a diagnosis. Alison then did some manipulation, suggested exercises (and followed up by emailing videos of how to do them) and strapping and there has definitely been an improvement. Alison was clear that she wouldn't 'take money' by suggesting weekly appointments if I could manage this by myself - following her advice -so I only had three sessions. I trust Alison and would return to Birchwood if I ever needed further treatment

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about my experience with Birchwood Physiotherapy. They are such a caring and considerate team, not to mention the absolute skill of my therapist Alison. I feel so much better and so well cared for. The information I receive is clear and concise. Thank you so much Alison and Helen and all the team.

I highly recommend Paul from Birchwood Physiotherapy! I am visiting my husband's family in England (from the US) and I had pain and stiffness that wasn't getting better so I decided to seek help. I'm so happy I did! Paul immediately diagnosed the issue and thoroughly explained exercises to help and expectations for when it would get better. He followed up with an email containing links and videos. Plus, he was very kind and funny:)
