Having always been involved in sport, my formative years were reasonably competitive, starting out in gymnastics then switching across to diving as a relative veteran at the age of 14 and represented GB - I still have my tracksuit to prove it to the family! My passions for my sports, physiotherapy and human movement are what drove me to get involved with professional sports.
I've worked with Plymouth Albion, Plymouth Raiders in the past and more recently with British Diving. I've had a daughter and this triggered the innovation of 'Physi-go mum'. This class sits alongside the other classes I have developed at the clinic - Plym Pilates - rehab style movement efficiency pilates and latterly 'Physi-go run'.

Don't forget, if you sign up to our mailing list you will receive updates, offers and 10% off your initial 60 minute appointment!. Would recommend highly, to me Plym Physio are the best. Always professional, friendly and you always feel well taken care of. My physiotherapist has gone above and beyond what was expected when it comes to my wellbeing!
Here at Plym Physio the team excel at providing the best physiotherapy service in Plymouth. If you are in pain or struggling to do those day to day activities that used to be easier, we are here to help. With the private care that we provide there is no delay in getting your treatment underway once you've made the decision to get help.
I would like to receive marketing emails including the latest news and offers from Plym Physio. A running 'club' with a difference, addressing key issues affecting runners based on research and evidence. I have suffered from a bad back and stiff neck and shoulders for many years. Regular visits to PlynPhysio keep me moving and at work - I can always get an appointment when I need one which is good to know.
Running, like a lot of sports and leisure activities is not only popular but increasingly influenced by technology and research as it becomes more accessible to the public. Plym Physio has a particular interest in running, with its evidence based Physi-go run class, but now we have the chance to offer our specialist gait analysis service.
We all move, some of us less efficiently than others and some of us can experience pain as a result of those inefficiencies. Physiotherapists are the 'movement experts' so are ideally placed to analyse how a person moves and put together programmes designed to address these issues.
This more preventative approach is a more modern way to look at treating musculoskeletal problems and can be applied across the spectrum from the young to the older patient as well as from the amateur athlete to the elites.If you think you would benefit from analysis of your movement patterns please contact us at the clinic.

I’ve been going to Nic for the past two years for Pilates, Physio and Acupuncture. Before I started going to Plym Physio I was in daily agony with my back, hips and neck.
With Nic’s help I have been able to build core strength and learn to understand how to carry myself so I’m not putting strain on my body. I have reach a point in my wellbeing that I thought I never would, a point where I don’t have to choose what I can and can’t do because of my pain.
I have always enjoyed going to my appointments as the atmosphere is very welcoming and easy to be in.
Can’t recommend Plym Physio

I have used Nicky for both personal injury treatments and regular weekly Pilates classes. She has always been able to analyse what have mainly been sports related injuries and managed to sort them out for me. Her Pilates classes are very well structured and the content is fun as well as being demanding.

I first started seeing Nic @ Plym Physio due to lower back pain which I have suffered with for considerable years. After a few physio sessions I was encouraged to join one of the Plym Physio Pilates classes which I’ve been doing for over a year. The classes are small, controlled and have really helped to strengthen my back and I now don’t suffer from such discomfort. I highly recommend Nic and Plym Physio, I think they are great!

Been going to Pilates and physio with Nic for 18 months now and I can’t say enough good things about everything she’s done for me! I’ve never been more aware of my own body and how to prevent and relieve issues with my back. I feel so much happier for being able to be proactive towards my health with their help!

Nicola worked wonders with the severe muscular back pain I was experiencing before xmas. She made an immediate significant positive impact and I only needed a few sessions to sort out the problem. I was extremely impressed by her in depth knowledge, practical experience and friendly approach. I would definitely highly recommend her.

I was recommended Plym Physio for ongoing back issues and muscular spasms which were completely affecting my mobility and pain levels. After a thorough assessment I was given a written plan of exercises which grew each week until I was pain free. I joined the weekly Pilates class which helps with alignment and core conditioning and Nic is my ‘go to’ person at Plym Physio with any and all pain issues!!
Thank you Nic x Janet

I went in with quite restricted movement in my right arm. I came out with greater movement than I went in with and some effective exercises to keep me heading in the right direction. I travelled from Taunton to Plymouth because I knew I needed to get the right treatment and I’m so glad I did, Nicola is superb.

Plym Physio provides holistic care for all. Their emphasis is all about 'helping you to help yourself'. The team are knowledgeable, approachable and passionate. I have been a going to see Plym Physio for 8 months, I attend a weekly Pilates class which has completely changed the way I move and my strength has never been this good.

Brilliant - Nicola managed to fit me in when back trouble inconveniently gave me pain & mobility issues a few days before international travel. Nicola's consultation was thorough and following treatment was… spot on, delivered with a reassuring, professional, friendly and knowledgable manner. No longer in pain! Would highly recommend. Thanks Nicola!

Outstanding! I had Physio and acupuncture every week on my neck for 6 months after suffering for countless years, my neck has never felt so good and I finally have feeling back in my left hand. Nicola is amazing and the overall professional service I received from appointments to treatments have been second to none. Thank you Nicola and thank you Becky! I feel brand new!

I have been a client of PlymPhysio for almost a year and the improvement in my mobility and general posture is truly amazing. Nicky is really knowledgeable, expertly guiding us through the exercises in the Pilates classes - she knows all of our strengths and weaknesses and tailors the exercises accordingly. I also have had several Physio sessions with Nicky which have really helped loosen my old bones! Highly recommended!
