Excellent physio, my long-standing shoulder problem that I never thought would resolve is already 90% improved after only a few weeks and getting better all the time. I'm amazed! Online consultation is really simple and works well; friendly and effective service. Highly recommend.

Very professional. Cured my tennis elbow in no time! Very convenient venue with plenty of parking.

Bartosz Wietrzyk

I was referred to Response Physio by my insurance company as I was not quite getting the help I needed from the NHS. Great experience from the beginning; friendly, professional and knowledgeable staff, clean and modern facilities and best of all, my injury is fixed without the use of painkillers and I have a great aftercare program to make sure it stays that way. Special shout out to the physio Uhr who really is an asset to the clinic. Highly recommended.

The Physiotherapy sessions were really helpful with targeted advice between sessions when my back was bad - I went onto the Pilates sessions really for maintenance and have also really enjoyed them I am stronger and more flexible and walking pain-free is wonderful- Thanks Ellie

Gordon Shiells

The service I have received from the physiotherapists at this practice over many years has been first-class. The physiotherapists are friendly and knowledgeable, and the treatments have had a major, positive effect on my health. I have also attended Pilates classes run and led by physiotherapists from this practice for many years, and these classes have played a major role in preventing injury, as well as enhancing mobility and strength. I fully recommend this Response Physio & Sports Therapy Gosforth (Balmoral).

I saw Arun on 06/02, he was great - went through functional testing and diagnosis. Found several issues relating to my left shoulder and set me up with a rehab plan. Been to other people around Nottingham and Arun was the first person to pinpoint the issues.

Vivesh Patel

Fantastic service, able to see me the day I rang. Thorough assessment and lots of advice given, emailed an excellent sheet and timetable for exercises to be done at home over next 4-6 weeks. Really pleased and would definitely use them again.

Becky Pickles

Have been coming here for over a month now and each time there have been improvements Lowri Walker has been excellent, with all her planning to suit me and my body to get me back on the right path, excelled in all-round knowledge and gone the extra mile helped to find another specialist with my problem if condition got worse cannot thank Lowri enough for her time and effort and flexibility with scheduling. Would highly recommend to anyone needing physio treatment.
