    Me: Asst Snr Endurance Group Coach, very cynical about all therapies, especially those that require regular, repeat treatments over the long term. Training for a marathon. Concerned about a calf injury getting worse (and obviously, being a coach, I knew exactly what was wrong)

    Richard: Physiotherapist that understands athletes and their needs. He listened to me and all my explanations. Richard took it all in and despite my self-diagnosis he correctly identified my problem (not muscle injury but tendonosis)

    I expected to be told to rest but Richard was aware of my aims and gave me a targeted exercise regime and a revised training schedule to get me to the start line with 6 weeks to go. He warned me I might not make it but in the event his treatment/program worked more quickly than I had dared to hope. I was able to increase the training load after 2 weeks and felt confident I would get to the start line. There is a lot more to this story but it is enough to say I made the start line and finished in under 4 hours. I couldn't have done it without Richard.

    Subsequently, I have gone to Richard with 2 other problems which he has sorted. I am not on any long term plan. I've just seen Richard where he has diagnosed the problem, provided me with an appropriate treatment and effectively cured each complaint.

    What do you get from Richard.

    1 An athlete focused physiotherapist
    2 Accurate diagnosis
    3 Treatment of the underlying problem, and, importantly, not just alleviation of the symptoms
    4 Refined, even more targeted, treatment as the condition improves.
    5 A plan that takes into account what you are trying to do/achieve (treating the whole athlete, not just the injury/complaint).
    6 A trusted, respectful, knowledgeable and effective physiotherapist.

    What you need to do: Listen to what Richard has to say and follow through on the plan.
    Do the exercises.
    Do the stretches.
    Do the training.
    Do the reps.
    Richard will keep you right and you will be a better athlete afterwards.

    Richard treated me for a spinal injury and I have greatly appreciated his care and professionalism. He worked with me to ensure that my treatment was getting me towards my recovery goals. The setting itself is lovely and clean, and Richard made me feel instantly at ease.
