Very helpful session with Tristan, who explained to me really well the reason for the problem I was having, and gave me excellent advice on rehab. Will definitely use Tristan / Rise again if the need arises.

As a runner and tennis player in my 60s I often get injuries to knees, shoulders and hands. Simon has always come up with an insightful and considered evaluation, has proposed a well articulated rehabilitation plan, and very useful follow up assessments. Physiotherapy for sports injuries doesnt get better than this, and keeps me fit and active.

Fantastic service. I've had pain in my shoulder for years. After ignoring it for too long i booked in with Rise Physio and they spotted the issue within 10mins. I walked away with some rehab exercises and a spring in my step! Excersises have really helped. Early days but feeling positive.

I was treated by George Williams for a dodgy knee and have been doing the exercises he prescribed for a few weeks now and my knee is feeling really strong. Very thorough and professional.

I arranged a physio session with you after having a very frustrating experience with a local chain of chiropractors and I just wanted to send you an email singing the praises of George Williams. I have recent started running again and wanted a check up before increasing the miles I run so booked in with a chiropractor. I had an introductory session with them, then an online consultation, then a follow up session where they explained what programme they would recommend. At each stage they gave me the hard sell which really put me off. They estimated the cost of their treatment would be 720. All

I went in with a finger injury, and came out motivated, inspired and with a new approach to climbing and the way I train. I assumed that there would only be one result from our appointment and that it would be stop climbing for x amount of time until your finger feels better but I was actually introduced to a whole new aspect to climbing that wasnt climbing to my limit six days a week - of course we all know this is a terrible idea, but Simons ability to not only articulate why its a terrible idea, but to explain the benefits of other exercises and introduce you to other ways you can
