East Coast Physio
Think you need an injection?.we perform ultrasound guided Cortisone and Ostenil injections!. We specialise in helping clients with injury, who have painful and restricted movement, clients with night pain, clients who are frustrated and not able to do the things they want to do. We also see clients who have had no success at other clinics!

Diagnosis of pain and injury is not always easy. As a result, this is why we have clinicians with advanced skills in the examination of the client. For instance, we have clinician's who go the extra step. For instance, not only do we perform a thorough physical examination of your injury, we have the option of using diagnostic ultrasound, to confirm your diagnosis.
Services
Our vision is to provide excellence in diagnosis and injury rehabilitation management, to optimise your restoration of functional ability, independence and quality of life - whether it's for daily leisure or sporting pursuits. The success of treatment rarely comes from one treatment, but a combination of treatments.
ECP sports injury clinics are located in three locations in Suffolk, but we often get clients from Essex, Norfolk and Cambridgeshire. As a result, this allows treatment closer to home with convenient access to specialist sports physiotherapy, extracorporeal shockwave therapy, diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound, ultrasound-guided injections (cortisone and Ostenil Plus injections) to the local surrounding towns and villages.
Below you will find testimonials from patients we have treated - all grouped into categories for easier reading. Neil Liffen treated my 8 year old son for knee pain. He was professional, thorough with examination, provided excellent physio over several sessions and recommended suitable exercises. My son made a great recovery.
PLEASE NOTE: The above list is designed to demonstrate the scope of conditions treated at ECP and is not an exclusive list. Please contact ECP if you would like to discuss your injury or further information is required. ACHILLES TENDONITIS - HOCKEY PLAYER Neil Liffen confirmed the diagnosis of Achilles tendinitis at the first appointment using diagnostic ultrasound and more importantly was able to reassure me no tear was evident.
An ultrasound probe emits high-frequency sound waves (echoes), which are reflected back to the probe by the body's tissues to form a live real-time image. Ultrasound is safe for children and adults and has no radiation. The quality of diagnostic ultrasound images is now considered to be superior to MRI scans for examination for certain tendons, ligament and muscle injuries.

Whilst visiting Neil in March for a suspected Plantar Fasciitis problem, I advised of some calf pain, Neil performed an ultrasound on the calf and was able to determine that I actually had a blood clot. Within 24hrs I had been referred to the DVT clinic for further investigation and treatment. Neil’s professional and thorough investigation prevented a potentially much worse result, I cannot thank Neil enough and thoroughly recommend his services.

Having read an article about painful hips, and not being able to sleep on either hip, I went to see Neil. After 3 treatments my hip is so much better and I am still continuing the excercise, the added bounus being that my walking is a lot easier. I would certainly recommend Neil for making my life a great deal more pain free

Neil helped diagnose what was wrong with my shoulder which wasn't recovering its full movement after fracture 18 months ago. His scanning expertise is phenomenal and the electric shock treatment although really painful set me on the road to full recovery

Neil has been supporting me for the past 5 months and from day one he has been absolutely amazing. I am seeing huge progress in my recovery and Neil is always so patient, calm and understanding. I never feel rushed and I really feel that every session matters.
Neil is extremely professional and knowledgeable. I cannot fault him or his service in anyway and I would highly recommend East Coast Physio.
Thank you Neil.

Neil was very understanding and knowledgeable of my sports injury which previously no one had diagnosed. The treatment worked and I am now able to participate in sport again. I will definitely be going back to see Neil if I get any further injuries. Would definitely recommend the service.

My wife Doreen has been seeing Neil for the last 6 years. She has fibromyalgia and recognises that there is no cure and no acceptable medication. However Neils treatment has made the symptoms much easier to cope with and has enabled her to have a more active lifestyle. We have been impressed with the way Neil has researched the problem and has jointly explored different approaches. Many thanks Neil!

I have been visiting East Coast Physio for regular treatment on my neck,back and shoulders, as a sufferer of Fibromyalgia my muscles are often in pain and with regular treatment from Neil it certainly does help. Every visit helps with the pain and Neil is excellent at what he does. I would strongly recommend him if you require any physio and also Neil will use acupuncture on me which again releases a lot of pain from my tissue/muscles. Thank you for helping me :)

Very knowledgeable and professional physio. Neil has great knowledge about muscle structure and has tailored exercises to alleviate my muscle pains as well as looking at behavioral factors in my life that may contribute to the cause of the muscle pains. He is also very competent at manipulating and massaging the sore muscle for fast relief of my aches.
