Testimonials for The Back Specialists 

I am in my late twenties and had been struggling with back pain for nearly two years prior to seeing John. I had had various scans and had been to a number of physios with little progress made. I also had lots of dry needling and intense sports massages.

No one seemed to be able to backtrack to the root cause of the problem. I really appreciated John's holistic approach. He assessed my whole body, not just the area that was causing me pain. With John's curated exercise plans, I was able to correct muscular imbalances in my body which took the strain off my back.

Before seeing John, I relied heavily on daily stretching and struggled to sit or drive for more than twenty minutes. I feel so much stronger now and these things are no longer an issue for me. John is extremely knowledgeable and comes out with some very interesting facts! I would highly recommend to anyone who is suffering from back pain."

The best experience I've ever had with a physical therapist, or a physio for that matter. The attention to detail and thorough assessment helped me understand the root cause of my back pain. I felt better immediately and was able to start getting back to my normal routine. Highly recommend them especially if you've tried other options which haven't worked.

"I went to see John in 2020 with a disc issue that had been causing me significant pain for four months. I’d seen numerous physios that could not help. I’d had a disc operation in 2006 and went to a neurosurgeon who was categorical that I required further surgery. I did not want this and with John’s help avoided a further op. John helped me to correct the slipped disc through a wholistic approach incorporating movement, posture, stretching, strengthening, homework and repetition. Four years on I am walking, cycling and exercising without pain. I still pay regular visits to John for advice on other issues that crop up from shoulders to shins. He’s a fantastic educator and shares excellent guidance for recovery homework. I can’t recommend him highly enough and I’m very grateful. Thanks John."
