Testimonials

I wasn’t sure whether video sessions would work but I am relieved to say that they really help. I was very much missing my face to face sessions with Louise and these are a lifeline in that, after an initial chat to ascertain what I am suffering and where the problems might be coming from, Louise takes me through a variety of stretches that help me enormously with my many muscular skeletal problems. Louise seems to have the ability to treat remotely as well as face to face so I would really recommend her and these video sessions to help anyone with pain etc to get through this stressful period.

the exercises have been really helpful; I'm able to play for lengths of time much longer than I had hoped for and I feel really good after I do them.

My lower back pain was excruciating during the lockdown. Normally a visit to Louise would get my recovery started. Louise suggested a WhatsApp video call, during which I explained and showed her my problem. Louise suggested gentle exercises including Yoga. Within a week my back was good enough to start practising golf. I am very grateful to her.

It was really useful to talk to a specialist and have the freedom to ask questions about my specific case. She was able to tell what was wrong with my injured arm through a series of tests and assured me it was something she could help me with. She showed me some really great stretches, and sent me many links to help me learn more about conducting my own treatment from home. I have been doing the stretches she recommended (as well as the awesomeness of her reassuring me it was going to heal) and they have worked like magic. I am now 2 / 3 weeks later recording violin for a very exciting album. Also she was very lovely to work with.

Despite some initial doubts, much to my relief my consultation with Louise over video chat on my smartphone was excellent. Louise was able to guide me precisely through stretches and movements in order that she could see for herself how my body behaved; the range of movement and flexibility. She was able to see exactly where I was pointing as far as pain was concerned and was able to diagnose the most likely causes of my arm and hand problem. I could clearly see her demonstrations of what I should do as far as rehabilitation exercises was concerned and was able to give me links to excellent online examples to help me continue with the exercises. The results on my hand and arm have been impressive. As far as I'm concerned the online consultation was pretty much as good as being physically present.

I consulted Louise regarding neck issues I was suffering as a result of an impact sports injury. I wanted to get back to action as soon as possible so reached out to Louise who was able to see me over video chat the next day. The video session worked really well, we spent the time assessing my injury and running through stretching programmes that would get be back to full fitness. Having implemented these stretches over the past few weeks I am now feeling much better and back in the gym.
Thanks Louise!

We feel incredibly fortunate that Louise offered to continue physiotherapy sessions via video (with a choice of apps) when the country went in to lockdown just a few weeks after my daughter completely ruptured the ACL in her knee. Each video session was followed up with a short email summarising any new exercises and confirming what the plan was between sessions. Rachel’s pre hab has helped with the specific steps toward recovery and we are very grateful. Louise is very patient during each session and thoroughly explains things and corrects where necessary. In my daughter’s words “she has just been amazing with everything.”
Thanks,

My video consultation with Louise was very helpful. Being able to see her and explain my problems visually as well as verbally was a huge improvement on a telephone consultation. The advice and exercises she recommended along with YouTube links has provided proved to be very useful. Louise is sympathetic and listens carefully before giving advice based on visual and spoken evidence.

The video sessions have proved extremely effective in maintaining my physiotherapy programme while face to face sessions are unavailable. The YouTube links provided have also been beneficial for clarification of any new exercises.
