TESTIMONIALS

{

David has been helping me recover from a broken hip and shoulder resulting from a recent cycling accident. David demonstrates the required exercises whilst I video them. I then practice the exercises at home. The sessions are proving to be invaluable in aiding my recovery. First class clinic in all respects.

Geoffrey

Been seeing David for 6 months for a dislocated shoulder and brachial plexus nerve injury, and he’s amazing! His vast knowledge and skills gave me so much confidence and trust in him. He truly made a difference physically and emotionally through some difficult times! Staff is always very friendly and helpful! Highly recommend!
