‘I worked with Emily, I had compressed shoulder nerves in my right shoulder. Very friendly services in general from the whole team. I had several goals, and the injury was holding me up. Emily was attentive to my desired outcome, provided clear instructions, she was professional, caring and created a supporting environment that enabled us to decompress the nerves, restore strength and we strengthened all the supporting muscles which has actually led to me unlocking my next level of fitness and strength. I cannot recommend Emily and the Instant Physio team enough. Emily has got me back to my daily fitness routine and improved it!’

'As part of my preparations for upcoming sporting events, I’ve been working on rehabilitating a previous ankle injury which keeps recurring. I’m so grateful to have been supported by Emily. She’s been absolutely amazing! Emily is warm, supportive, and has made me feel completely comfortable during every session. The program she designed has been incredibly effective and has given me real confidence in my training. The whole practice is very well-organised, and all the staff have been so friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!’

‘A 10/10 experience! I got put through to Instant Physio through my healthcare provider and have been having treatment with Emily for the last 3 months for an elbow sprain. She put together a treatment plan that matched my needs and availability and I’ve got back to a level where I am nearly back to full health and finished with my treatment. The main advantage with this centre and Emily is the plans are customised to your unique situation and injury and your goals which support your recovery journey. Thank you to all the team.’

‘After two years of recurring shin splints and ankle pain, exacerbated by running, I approached Instant Physio. Having previously undergone physiotherapy with no improvement in my injury, I was apprehensive that my experience would be repeated - this apprehension quickly abated. I was initially assessed by Emily, who developed a dynamic rehab program tailored to both the state of my injury and my goal of returning to running pain-free. Over the course of six weeks, starting in mid-June 2025, I noticed a gradual reduction in pain, along with overall gains in my leg strength. An assessment of my running gait on the treadmill by Emily gave me insight into how to adjust my running style to reduce impact and minimise the risk of injury. Emily is friendly, concise, and encouraging, and I’m very grateful for her support! If you’re considering physiotherapy, especially for persistent running injuries, I’d highly recommend Instant Physio. Thanks, Emily, and everyone at Instant Physio!’
