” Dear Bolton Physiotherapy Team, I’d like to thank your team for the care and patience I’ve received over the past months. From the moment I stepped through the door to be greeted so warmly by Jane I knew I would be in good hands! My treatment has been long but exemplary. I have gone from being unable to walk without pain or manage stairs without support to full movement in my foot, knee and hip all thanks to Catherine’s wide variety of treatments. Her knowledge is amazing and her sense of humour shines through makes each session relaxed and enjoyable. I would highly recommend the Bolton Physiotherapy Clinic. “

” I first started having problems with my knee in 2017. As I had a long distance walk planned later in the year, I contacted the team to arrange an appointment. Samantha took a detailed history and examination and then a planned programme of treatment and home exercises resolved the problem, to the extent that the fore-mentioned long distance walk was achieved with no recurring problems. However, at the back end of last year I started getting similar problems with the same knee – probably all the pavement pounding I’ve done in the last 9 months!!! With Covid and the lockdown, I was unsure what to do to resolve the problem, so I emailed the team. Samantha rang me up and carried out a phone consultation, advising me what I could do at home to help my knee settle. This worked a treat; I just found that sometimes, my knee wasn’t a ‘happy’ knee! Again I emailed the team, Samantha has now given me a range of exercise with videos that will help to strengthen the muscles and give my knee more support. I have found the team helpful, compassionate and professional and would recommend them to anyone needing a physiotherapy service. “

” I was suffering from Sciatica after a lower back muscle injury in the gym. I had to wait 3 months before my first NHS Physio Appointment. So instead of waiting I decided to try Bolton Physiotherapy Clinic. I was seen by Samantha who was very friendly, professional & listened to all my worries & set a recovery plan that best suited me & my condition. After a few of sessions involving stretch exercises & the TENS machine, I noticed a significant improvement in my day-to-day pain & discomfort. It no longer aggravates me as much as it used to. I highly recommend Bolton Physiotherapy Clinic. They have vast amounts of knowledge in different types of conditions after many years in this field. “

” We can highly recommend this practice, all the ladies are wonderful. Catherine who is treating my mum is amazing. She has developed a wonderful relationship with my mum which makes mum actually look forward to her treatment. Lots of laughs and excellent care. “

” I would like to thank Catherine for all the support, guidance and patience she has given me. 3 years ago I was a passenger in a car crash and have recently developed ME. I have seen several private physiotherapists throughout this time who have mostly done massage work on my injured neck, back and shoulder which left me with some relief from week to week. However when I wasn’t receiving the treatment the pain was getting worse. “

Catherine listened to me and my body, she helped me understand my pain levels. We focused on a home treatment plan which consisted of heat, exercises and the tens machine. In our sessions she treated me with acupuncture, ultrasound, magnetic field, mega pulse, heat and the tens machine. My shoulder, neck and back mobility has gradually improved. I know that this recovery is a long process to hopefully get it back to the way it used to be before the accident. I couldn’t recommend Catherine enough, she is polite, professional and knowledgeable. Thank you Catherine! “

” …well, where should I start, totally professional, easy to be around, always take time to listen and understand. I first saw Catherine in December 2017 with a lower back problem which was having quite an impact on my day to day activities and sleep. There was a significant improvement after my initial treatment, including a good nights sleep! The problem improved greatly and I was maintaining it with the help of Catherine when I had an unexpected health issue which left me with a shoulder problem and my lower back deteriorated due to lack of movement plus I was unable to attend physio. When I was able to return Catherine could not have been more helpful and supportive and I was soon feeling much better. I always feel very comfortable when being treated and all the staff are very welcoming and friendly. I also must mention the most wonderful heat lamp! “

” Following a car accident, I sustained a fracture to my spine causing paralysis. I have been going to see Samantha and Catherine regularly most weeks for physiotherapy. I have massage, stretches and exercises to help ease my ongoing symptoms. With treatment, I am able to control my pain levels more easily and maintain as much mobility as possible. The staff are always very friendly and helpful. “

” Following a recent injury to my back, I attended BPC to be greeted by Jane on the desk ‘Oh its Filofax man here again.’ Then I was shown into a treatment room by Catherine (who originates from deepest darkest Yorkshire). Catherine spoke to me in calming words (I think they were calming as I couldn’t understand a word she said!!!) Anyway following my treatment I got the English version of what I should do from Samantha. I would recommend that you take an interpreter with you if you attend for treatment (unless of course, you too originate from deepest darkest Yorkshire!)

” I’ve come to Samantha many times over the years, most recently with heel pain. Excellent service meant I was able to get back walking and then gradually back to running much quicker than I thought. First rate professional advice regarding exercises and stretches to help me on my way Staff are always friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. “

” Super Sam at Bolton Physiotherapy Clinic, excellent knowledge, equipment and skills, received a sympathetic but effective treatment on a twenty year old back problem not cured overnight but progress is unreal. Thanks Sam! “

” Saw Samantha at Bolton Physiotherapy Clinic, following a total knee replacement treatment. Was first class, recovery very quick wouldn’t hesitate in recommending. “

” I have seen Samantha with various conditions over recent years. Initially with problems in my thoracic spine post–surgery, then 2 spontaneous heel fractures and most recently, pain in my upper back and neck. She always adopts a very logical approach to treatment, trying one treatment approach from the many and varied ones she has available to her. Then modifying treatment in the next session accordingly to how I say I have been-a physio who actually listens to you and therefore enables you to get what you actually want out of your treatment. I cannot recommend Samantha highly enough. “

” I went to see Samantha for rehabilitation following my bunion operations. I had a thorough assessment and treatment explanation. Treatment included electricals, massage and exercises I would happily recommend Bolton Physiotherapy Clinic for treatment following surgery. Professional and friendly staff. “
