Referred by work due to a stiff knee and arthritic pain. The physio assessment, treatment and support has been second to none. Simply explained, understandable and careful to listen to my issues and concerns. I saw an improvement in a matter of weeks and am much more comfortable with my knee and what I need to do moving forward to continue to improve. A very happy customer.

A big thank you to Anna Papadopoulos for my treatment and the girl working in reception who was lovely. They are both very professional and great at what they do. Emma has an outstanding knowledge of her profession, she answered all my questions and gave me some great advice going forward. I had 3 sessions of shock wave treatment for plantar fasciitis, which was painful but worth it. I definitely think it has speeded along my recovery. Altho I am not fully recovered it is starting to feel a lot better. The definitely recommend Physiotherapy Matters to my fellow runners. Once again a big thank you to Emma.

After suffering a cartilage tear in my knee Neeraj was very professional and thorough with his diagnosis and treatment. We decided after the knee had recovered sufficiently on a Ostenil injection which really has worked like a little minor miracle. Im back running and doing everything that 12 weeks ago I could only dream about. Can't thank all the staff at Physiotherapy Matters enough for everything they have done for me.

I took my grandmother to see one of the therapists @ Physiotherapy matter. The physio was brilliant and very accommodating to me grandmothers needs. Her worsening neck and back pain was becoming debilitating and she was in chronic pain. She went in for her initial assessment and was given some treatment and exercises to do at home which have proven to be invaluable. I have booked her next appointment.

After a few months of strength deterioration and strange neural sensations in my forearms, Rob was quickly able to diagnose the underlying condition. With just a few simple exercises as part of a graded loading program, I have experienced steady improvement. I trust his expertise and value the clarity, patience and professionalism in his approach. Thank you!

Excellent physio Dr. Neeraj with perfect technic and best outcome received. I had a severe check and back pain every morning since 6-7 months and after just couple of sessions the pain reduced drastically and after the full treatment of massage and exercises the pain has now completely disappeared. Truly blessed to have got this physio. Thank you so much. Recommending this always.

Called up and was able to get an appointment on the day over at team valley bwhich was fantastic. Saw the physio Rob Henderson who was friendly, professional and supportive. I injured my calf and have the great north run in a few weeks. He was able to provide assessment, exercises and massage to a calf strain which I had been struggling to walk with for a couple of weeks. The very next day my leg felt amazing! I got my exercises to take away a work on and am booked for a follow up assessment in a couple of weeks to check on recovery. Thank you team ‘Physiotherapy Matters’!!

I had treatment from Neeraj over the course of 3-4 months following a collision with a bus which injured my shoulder and hip. Neeraj was very professional and informative throughout the whole process and the treatment I received was very successful. I am no pain free and have a comprehensive guide of exercises to follow to maintain the strength in my shoulder and hip. Would definitely recommend

First class service by the superb physio Neeraj and his team.. I went in with a back issue which had got progressively worse, rendering me in constant agony whilst carrying out the simplest of tasks. As soon as I had my initial consultation, I felt immediately at ease and have seen consistent improvement after only 3 sessions to a condition that had persisted for 2 -3 months, many many thanks, would highly recommend ..

Recently had shoulder pain which I hoped would just go away by itself. When I realised it wasn't getting better I booked in an initial consultation with Rob. He very quickly diagnosed a rotary cuff issue, gave me some exercises which would help ease the pain followed by fairly intense deep tissue shoulder work. Immediately started feeling better after the session. It's only been two weeks but the exercises have made a big improvement. Rob was very knowledgeable and put me at ease. I would highly recommend Physiotherapy Matters services, even if its just for an initial consultation, getting professional advice is the way to go.

Amazing place. Diagnosis on first session and my mind was put at rest. Given hands on therapy which really helped (wow those muscles were tight!) and after actually doing my exercises 1 week later I was already on 1/4 of the painkkllers. Now I'm off them and back at the gym. 🙂

Recently had an assessment and some treatment with Rob following prolonged pain in my shoulder. Following a quite lengthy assessment of my problem I received some hands on treatment which involved some fairly uncomfortable deep tissue massage to the problem area. Rob then gave me several exercises to do using a stretchy rubber band which were very useful. My main reason for a score of only four stars was that I thought it was quite expensive for quite a basic consultation and literally less than 10 minutes of actual physical treatment. I have spoken to several other Physio businesses and they offer free 30 minute consultations.

Great team at Gosforth who focus on the individual, to achieve a positive, active lifestyle and overcome the obstacles that we face through injury or age. Received successful shock wave therapy treatment with Neeraj for hip bursitis in 2019 that the NHS were unable to treat despite 2 years investigation. Recently returned for help with knee and hip issues. Feeling improvements already after 2 visits with Beth.

I cannot praise this business enough. I have seen Bethany two times now for help with arthritis pain in my knee.
