I went to Sally on the recommendation of a colleague after a suspected RSI injury and was able to see improvements in mobility and reduction in pain within a small number of sessions. I can't recommend her highly enough.
Very pleased with the results from physiotherapy for various sports injuries.
Sally is a highly skilled and professional practitioner as well as being caring and sympathetic about your needs. She quickly identified my problem and introduced a course of treatment that greatly improved my mobility and eased my pain.Excellent service much appreciated
I went to see Sally after more than 3 weeks in bed due to my sciatica nerve pain. She helped me to come back to a normal life again.
Sally Waters has helped me tremendously. I was in excruciating pain in my lower back, so much so that my wife called an ambulance. Weeks later when I was able to shuffle about I met Sally who literally has the magic touch. After just a few sessions I felt stronger and could start to lift things (albeit small) but nevertheless a few weeks prior I never would have dreamed of putting any pressure on my back. Week by week small things became heavier, and the shuffling turned into walking.Thank you, Sally!
I have been treated for physio with Sally Waters a few times now and under her special care and advice, I have recovered very successfully from various injuries to my knees and back. Sally is professional and considerate in her treatment with successful solutions for recovery or for painful joints.
I have cervical spondylosis which had become a real pain in the neck for several weeks when I was able to get an appointment quickly with Sally Waters. I was pretty low and found her encouraging and supportive. The Zoom sessions were better than I anticipated. I then needed to see her in person which meant a long drive for me. The' hands-on' helped enormously and was well worth the drive, and in the lockdown, it made a lovely trip out of London. Vastly improved now. Chose Imperial as I have worked there and know their staff are good and confirmed by my experience with Sally.
Thank you for your kind review. It is much appreciated.
Sally really helped me with my lower back pain. I highly recommend her if you want a professional and effective treatment!
My friend recommended that I see Sally after I injured my back and was experiencing pain. She has been extremely helpful in treating it as well as showing me how to manage my injury on a day to day basis. She also had a lot of advice to give on how I could modify my core workouts so that I can stay strong as much as possible without worsening my back injury. She also guided me step by step so that I can fully return to doing gymnastics in the safest possible way, which I now have. Sally is the best physiotherapist I've had the pleasure of working with and would recommend her highly to anybody who is looking for help.
I got into contact with Sally via Imperial College. I was struggling and still am rehabbing a back injury which arose during the COVID lockdown. Despite the lockdown, Sally was able to guide me through online physiotherapy sessions, diagnose the cause of my back pain, and set out a weekly plan to help rehab my injury. This plan involves stretches that target the injury as well as exercises to strengthen all the relevant core muscles. Sally is professional and explains stuff well. Recommend her.
