Very professional and friendly I would strongly recommended him. Adele Seager 25/05/2021 James has been 'maintaining' my knees for over 10 years following a partial knee replacement. His expertise and knowledge is superb. I have regular acupuncture and treatment and as a result have been able to lead an active lifestyle, including skiing! I would highly recommend to anyone, James is professional, knowledgeable & incredibly friendly. Joe 22/05/2021 Very pleased with the service I recieved for my Posterior Tibial issues. The issue has dramatically improved in a much shorter time frame than I expected. Many thanks. Andy Brown 10/03/2021 I had never been to a physio before I went to Charlotte this year, and she immediately put me at ease and explained the procedures comprehensively. Having struggled for weeks with intense and debilitating knee pain, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I am now completely pain-free and am more active than ever. Highly recommend! Thank you Charlotte! Paul Shepherd 05/03/2021 A very professional and friendly experience. Treatment has made a real difference to my mobility and strength following an injury that was recovering slowly. Thank you! Paul Marden 11/02/2021 I came to Allsports after struggling to find a physio that had availability when I hurt my back at Christmas. Within one treatment the recovery was huge, and 4 sessions on I'm virtually pain free. Geoff Wilson 27/01/2021 Very professional friendly service. My football injury was diagnosed and treated quickly and sucessfully by Charlotte who also specified excellent homework to speed recovery. Thoroughly recommended. Jolly Holly 09/12/2020 Having had upper back pain for well over 10 years and having tried a variety of suggested therapies/treatments (including 4 different physios, and osteopath and a chiropractor), none of which have made any long term difference to my pain, I turned to Allsports therapy as a final attempt to help my pain after many years of unsuccessful treatments. I was so impressed with the service that I got, Charlotte is friendly and welcoming, and easy to talk to. From my very first session she provided my with a full MOT for my back. Not only did she manipulate my back, but she also gave me a sports massage and really worked into my muscles to loosen them up. She suggested we tried acupuncture, which I was a little nervous about, but she reassured me, and the treatment was painless (barely felt it!) and effective. Without Allsports therapy, I would have paid for 3 separate treatment sessions for these three skills, but Charlotte has them all at her fingertips, and utilises them as needed after her assessment, therefore saving me a fair amount of money. Charlotte encouraged self care/ treatment in between the treatments, and provided a list of daily exercises and stretches. I have since been back to Charlotte several times and each time I come away feeling much more relaxed, comfortable and pain free. I would highly recommend Charlotte and Allsports therapy. If you think you've unsuccessfully exhausted all the options for your pain management, give Allsports Therapy a try. I think you will be nicely surprised... Robert Constant 11/10/2020 James does a fantastic job at full-body fitness (and recovery from injury), seriously complementing anyone’s cardio fitness. I had never bothered with a personal trainer, but now I see I was 100% wrong all these years. Let the professionals assess what you need to work on. Paul was also brilliant as the physio in the early days as I recovered from a cycling injury, and the combination of both at Allsports is outstanding. I could not recommend them more highly. Georgia Aviss 03/10/2020 Monika was really welcoming and professional. She took the time to discuss where I was needing treatment and focused on those areas. The massage was very effective as there was significant improvement after the first consultation. I would highly recommend Monika for anyone in need of a deep tissue massage/ or has a sports injury!

This really depends on the type of taping used and the setting to which it is used in. Generally, we recommend keeping kinesiology tape on for up to 5 days, before removing it, cleaning and moisturising the skin. If you are wearing it for sport or in water, then it may need to be removed after the activity. The longer you wear it for, the more dry the skin becomes underneath the tape and prolonged or repetitive use can result in blistering. Your Therapist will discuss this with you before applying it to ensure safe use. I'm allergic to plasters, can I use this tape? We recommend that if you have a severe contact allergy to plasters/glue, to avoid the use of this tape and to make your Therapist aware of this upon your initial consultation. If you are unsure, your Therapist may recommend applying a small piece of the tape to the back of the hand and leaving it for a few hours following your session. If you do not have any adverse reactions to this, then it may be safe to apply. Will the tape stay on if it gets wet? The brand of tape we use at Allsports Therapy means that you can shower with the tape on, but we recommend you minimising how wet it gets and making sure you gently pat it dry after. Bathing/swimming in the tape it possible but it will effect the adhesive and the elasticity of the tape therefore will mean it coming off much quicker. Arrange an appointment
