Anybody got any recommendations from experience? Had a look at Google Reviews etc but sometimes you can't really get a full idea.

Haven't been for a few years now.

Was he working from there or was it just on the noticeboard by the changing rooms?

I used a physio in Albany road a couple of years ago when I injured my back but I’ve forgot the name sorry

I think there’s on by the bookies on Norman place road too

If it's the one by the railway bridge it's gone. He was decent but I don't know where he's gone to.
Pilgrims in Mayfield Rd in Earlsdon is good.

Cheers, having a look now!

How much are they nowadays? None of them have any pricing per hour / session to get a decent idea. Think I went years and years ago and it was about £25-£30 so dread to think now :(

The ex Cov physio, Damien Delahunty, has a practice in the ground floor of that new assisted living place next to the Butts. Recommended by a neighbour and helped relieve my sciatica a fair bit 6 months or so ago. It was £40 for initial 45 min assesment then £35 for each half hour session (possibly cheaper rates if block booked for 6/10 sessions).

I think his name was Darren Carrott? I’d love to know where he ended up, he sorted my back out a treat after a car crash I was involved in.

He used to work in the NHS as well as have a practice there so is perhaps still working for them.

Tried to google but looks like he got burgled and then he dissolved the company in May 2016.

Maybe just gone to work in the NHS.

I'm not even going to bother trying to go through the NHS, would be waiting months if not years.

About the same. Try elite in coundon. Very good. They are physios for the wasps players...

(That was a joke about the wasps)

Tell them I referred you, and I'll get a £5 off my next treatment.. !! (not sure they will know who olderskyblue is though....)

If you can get in to see Monika (Tuesday's only) I can recommend her.

Elite are very good, especially with sport injuries. Nikki has been involved with the Blaze for years and Joel used to play for them.
