Bodyworks
Welcome to Bodyworks, the physiotherapy and sports injury clinic located in central Winchester. Our Physiotherapists specialise in the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries and movement dysfunctions, as well as general physiotherapy. Bodyworks is a Physiotherapy and Sports Injury Clinic based in Winchester.

Formerly Physical Health Dynamics, Bodyworks Physiotherapist Winchester was established in 2006 by Dr Alison Claire Ryall, known to most as just 'Claire' - a well-known physio in the Winchester area and beyond. Our clients span all age and fitness levels, from elite athletes to senior citizens.
Services
Claire Ryall established a physiotherapy and sports injury clinic in 2005 in response to demand for high quality treatment aimed at injury prevention and performance improvement in elite runners as well as treatment of their injuries. Her extensive experience in the research and clinical management of spinal pain and upper limb disorders makes for a versatile therapist who enjoys a varied client base.
Bodyworks is now offering Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) as a treatment option for some musculoskeletal conditions where other treatments have not been effective enough. ESWT has been available for some years now, and there is increasing evidence that it can be effective in chronic conditions of the achilles tendons, plantar fasciitis and tennis elbow (see "indications" below).
Many of the treatments and special treatments we offer are fairly standard physiotherapeutic treatment modalities but the skill is in knowing when and how to apply them and how best to customize them to each individual client's needs. For example, Claire will use video feedback to assess and improve running technique dependent on the presenting injury - not everyone is suited to barefoot running or designed to achieve a perfect forefoot strike.
From Winchester City Centre: Leave the city via Southgate Street into St Cross Road. Take the first left after the BP garage into Kingsgate Road. Turn right before the first lamp post by the large tree between two low walls into St Cross Court. From M3: Leave at junction 11. Follow signs to Winchester city centre and St Cross.

Without any hesitation I can highly recommend Claire. As a mature athlete I have been indebted to Claire for over 10 years. Whenever I require treatment whether for a body "MOT", injury or post race recovery, her expertise & sound advice have ensured not only have I made the start line of races, in particular marathons and ultra marathons, when there was a doubt, but successfully complete the distance and cross the finish lines!

Claire is quite simply a brilliant physio. She absolutely gets the need for patients to become mobile quickly, and delivers excellent treatment along with an understanding, pragmatic attitude.
