APPOINTMENTS
We are open for appointments but have had to change the way the business operates to accommodate official guidelines on COVID-19.
As lockdown measures are eased
The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy has advised physiotherapists that it is not a return to business as usual.
All initial appointments must be remote/virtual.
However after this, if deemed clinically appropriate, a face to face appointment can go ahead as long as the client has been assessed as low risk and all measures have put in place to reduce the risk of Covid-19 infection.

Costochondritis? 8/6/2020 *****
I have been experiencing chest pains for 2 years now, I have had loads of tests and seen many doctors and consultants, they variously diagnosed my problem as being heart, stomach, arthritis and finally costochondritis but nothing made it go away. Redmond identified the problem after one video call, gave me a set of exercises and the pain is now subsiding. Such a relief and I am so impressed.
