Back in Shape Clinic

"Booked a massage with Elaine as I was experiencing back pain. Very professional, knowledgable and personable. I explained the pain I was experiencing to Elaine and she identified the issue straight away and tailored the treatment to suit my needs. I will definitely be returning!"

"All staff are friendly and efficient, and the treatment I received from Anthony was second to none. He immediately spotted that I would need to see a surgeon, then took me through some prehab and a lot of postoperative rehab brilliantly. Clearly an expert, and with a relaxed and reassuring manner. I can't recommend this clinic highly enough. Thank you all."

"Dr Anthony helped me recover from a major lower back incident only in 4 visits, at a point when I was feeling insecure and afraid that I had suffered serious damage. When I started my physiotherapy I had difficulty walking, lifting weights, sleeping, and even sitting in my office chair, which made my every day life very difficult, especially as the father of a toddler. The exercises and therapy that Dr Anthony asked me to follow took into consideration the chronic problems I'd been having with my lower back, and previous episodes that stretched back almost 16 years. I feel healthier, more confident, and my core muscles have strengthened because of the exercises. Highly recommended! John Tzagkarakis"

"I discovered Back In Shape in June 2021 after injuring my neck. From experience & the excruciating pain I assumed it was disc/nerve related & after 3 weeks with little improvement I was losing hope. Time was crucial & I'd declined NHS steroid injections/surgery before for similar issues so researched non-surgical options & found IDD Therapy, available locally. My consultation was with Anthony Padgett & when we met I could still barely move my neck. After examining me Anthony said the IDD Therapy wasn't needed, physiotherapy would be enough & after just that initial physio session I felt the benefit, amazing. My MRI showed accelerated degeneration but Anthony was so reassuring & thanks to his knowledge, experience & expertise I've made more progress than I thought possible. I can't turn back time but now I've the tools to manage my symptoms & got my life back. I'm so grateful for Anthony's help. I don't know where I'd be otherwise & I can't recommend Back In Shape highly enough, 1st class!"

"Diana Goodwin was my physiotherapist in November and December 2018 during recovery from a double knee replacement operation which took place in September. Progress with knee flexibility and body and leg strengthening exercises was rapid. As a rock climber and mountaineer I wanted to return to these activities and Diana tailored the exercise routine to help that. I am now climbing regularly (twice a week) at a climbing wall and doing mountain walks. Amazing! Thank you Diana and Back In Shape; you helped me get my life back."
