“I had a very painful shoulder injury that was causing me to have to take a lot of medication. Brett was able to completely remove my pain, get me off the meds and restore full function in only 3 visits."
Debbie
“My back pain was very bad even I was not able to walk sometimes I cried. Luckily Dr Sean told me about Brett. is very helpful for me that pain is almost completely gone. I highly recommend to every pregnant woman who is facing sciatic problem during the pregnancy. I have had a great experience.”
Parminder
“Before physio, I had sciatic pain constantly but since using it I find I only get sciatic pain when I put myself in specific positions and that goes away once I correct myself. I believe this improvement is 100% due to the physio.”
Kirby
“I found this very enjoyable and gave me the chance to move/ stretch in a way that feels super helpful yet usually impossible while pregnant. I felt taller/ longer in my spine afterwards and with less muscle tension.”
Jenny
“This physio has changed the way I view possible treatment for serious hip and back pain. It is fast and effective and has lasting results.”
Jorgiana
“Prior to my last visit I had really bad sciatica pain in my right side. After physio my pain was significantly reduced and completely gone the following day!”
Dannielle
“Pain was really bad before coming here, first night after was a bit tender but pain is virtually gone now.”
Kirby
“Had sciatic 10/10 pain. Two treatments and it has not returned. After that I keep getting extreme pelvis pain. Can walk in with a pain of 9/10 sometimes. Massive relief every time I had physio - It helps so much.”
Sam
“I found it very helpful flexibility wise having physio, the first night after first session was no pain at all, I felt much more flexibility straight away. Very much recommend for anyone with hip, abdominal tightness or back pain.”
Shannon
“Before coming in my left hip was sore especially turning around in bed. After the first session my hip was better but still sore especially when going to bed. The third session I was much better."
Ethel
“Painful during the night when I get up to pee. I would have to stand for a while before walking to the bathroom. I would do this 3- 4 times a night. Going to physio weekly has helped with the pain getting up during the night. I have felt no pain at all. Turning around in bed has also helped. Not as painful as it was at the start where I had to stop for a moment for the pain to subside.”
Ethel
“I had sciatic pain down one side of my lower back/glute. After physio, the power after and the results were actually mind-blowing. I couldn`t get over how the physio exercises had made me feel better and reduced the pain immensely.”
Katie
“Pain was radiating down my right leg. After physio there is minimal to no pain anymore. Thoroughly enjoy my experience. Always feel much better afterwards.”
