We are now open in a ‘new normal’ way!

We are delighted to announce that we have re-opened the clinic to Physiotherapy face-to-face appointments for clients who are low risk and meet the Public Health England criteria.

Following government advice and Public Health England regulations, we must see Physiotherapy patients online in the first instance. If it becomes clear that online treatment will not be sufficient to get you better or we are unable to properly diagnose the problem remotely, if you wish we can then carry out a risk assessment for a face-to-face appointment. This involves filling out a Covid-19 risk assessment form and discussing your risk level v level of need with the Physiotherapist.

We have had to stop all massage and podiatry sessions but we are still offering online personal training, classes in Pilates, Yoga and Dance Tone and Stretch, Nutrition consultations, and our weight loss programme – ‘A Weight Off Your Mind’.

Please give us a call to find out more or join in with any of these services. We hope you stay healthy and happy and will see you when we can!

Diana and the team at Physio on the River.

Pilates and Yoga classes

We have unfortunately had to cancel the classes in our studio but we are providing live online classes so that you can continue your exercise and maintain your fitness during these difficult times.

These are very easy to take part in so please get in touch to find out more about how to set it up and join in. If you are not particularly tech minded we can hold your hand all the way!

We are currently in our summer term of classes but will be opening bookings for the summer holidays shortly. Please show your support if you possibly can so we can continue to survive through these difficult times and still be there for you at the end.

Latest updates: BUPA, AXA PPP and Aviva have announced that they will temporarily cover the cost of remote physio appointments. We anticipate that other health insurance companies will join in soon. It’s worth checking your cover with your health insurance company first.

Other services

Online Physio appointments

For those more vulnerable clients who do not want to attend physically, we can offer online appointments. We can correct and progress exercises, give advice and show you alternative techniques you can use at home to self-massage and manipulate.

Home visits

Additionally, if you are well but social distancing and are of low risking of catching the virus, we may be able to visit you at home at our normal clinic prices. As long as we can wash our hands on arrival and don our full PPE, we are good to go.

Online personal training

If you are stuck at home, you might be interested in online personal training with Richard or Dave. Please give us a call if this interests you.

Online Workstation assessments

If, like many others, you are now working from home but have been suffering with work related aches and pains, Diana can help you get your workstation set up correctly. Just call reception to book an appointment.
