Feedback patients have sent to the clinic. Everyone's recovery is different.
“After tearing my ACL playing football, I was told I'd need months of rehab. The team at Prime Physio had me back on the pitch in 14 weeks. Their hands-on approach and tailored exercise programme made all the difference. I can't recommend them highly enough.”
“I'd been suffering with lower back pain for over three years and had tried everything. Within six sessions at Prime Physio, I felt like a completely different person. They didn't just treat the pain — they explained exactly what was causing it and how to prevent it coming back.”
“Following my shoulder surgery, I was anxious about recovery. The physiotherapist was incredibly patient and knowledgeable, adjusting my treatment as I progressed. The clinic is modern and clean, and the whole team makes you feel genuinely cared for.”

Clear answers before you book your appointment at Prime Physiotherapy Clinic. Last reviewed by Prime Physiotherapy Clinic on 18 October 2026.
No. You can book private physiotherapy with us directly, without a GP referral. Book online, call the clinic or send us a WhatsApp message, and we will find a time that suits you, 7 days a week.
Every appointment is £50 for 45 minutes, including your first assessment, and each one is one-to-one with your physiotherapist. After your assessment, they will explain the plan they recommend and roughly how often you may need to come in. That way, you know what to expect before you commit.
Yes. We are a self-pay clinic, so you pay for each appointment directly and you don't need insurance. You won't need a policy number or pre-authorisation to book.
Your first appointment lasts 45 minutes: we talk through your symptoms, health history and goals, then assess how you move. Your physiotherapist explains the likely cause in plain language and agrees a plan with you. Where it is suitable, treatment and home exercises start in the same visit, and you can book your assessment online.
It depends on your problem, how long you have had it, your goals and how your body responds to treatment. Your physiotherapist will give you their recommendation after your assessment and review it as you progress. More complex problems and rehab after surgery may need a longer plan.
Physiotherapy can help many people with back pain, neck pain and sciatica. Treatment focuses on easing pain, improving movement, building strength and changing the activities or habits that keep the problem going. The NHS back pain guide also lists physiotherapy as one way to get help.
Yes. We treat sprains, strains, tendon problems, shoulder and knee injuries, running injuries and return-to-sport rehab. Treatment is based on your assessment and a progressive exercise plan, and our sports massage service can help with muscle tightness while you train.
