Shin Splints clinics in Woolwich, Greenwich (131 results)

I discovered Fit2Function via a recommendation on instagram. While training for my second marathon I found myself in yet another cycle of various running injuries. After three years of running I was constantly getting injured once I got to a certain point with my training and I realised I needed some proper help if I was going to achieve what I wanted to with my running. So I made an appointment to see Claudiu. From the start I trusted his judgement and was relieved to find someone who understood both my history and wanted to look at the bigger and long term picture rather than just get me to the next start line - we decided to cancel my marathon (and ultra marathon) plans for 2019 and focus on a 12 week programme of all their treatments and a gym programme to build my strength. 12 weeks on and I'm back running up to 10km and enjoying running with my friends again - pain free for the first time in as long as I can remember. I'm looking forward to gradually building my mileage back for marathon and ultra marathon goals in 2020 and I'm hoping we've found a way to break the cycle and I'm looking forward to working with these guys while I chase down my big goals next year.

On my first visit to the department on 17 March 2022 (after knee surgery for a Patellofemoral joint replacement on 14 March 2022) I was introduced to Chinyelu. Her immediate reaction to me could not have been less welcoming. Unfortunately she remained this way for the whole of the 45 minute appointment. I had already had 3 left hip replacements so I was used to pain but the pain of a partial knee replacement is far worse. I explained to her that I was in a lot of pain and her reaction was ‘you will be’, absolutely no effort to give me advice as to how I could make myself more comfortable. She then proceeded to make me lift my leg (impossible) and also bend it (impossible). I was feeling very vulnerable when I attended the appointment and really needed some support and I received none. My husband was in the car park when I came out and I cried. This is not like me. Since then I have been very fortunate to mainly see Sarah who is one of the very best physiotherapists I have ever met (as you can imagine this is an extremely strong recommendation if you look at my medical history) who is always warm and friendly and gets the best out of me. I have also met G on a couple of occasions who has been an excellent replacement for Sarah.

It is impressive how quickly Kajal was able to diagnose the cause of the problem and work in a progressive way to address it. Appointments are on time, functional and clear directions are given about the work to be done at home between appointments. Kajal worked on me and on each of my two sons and we all had a similar experience whereby our issues were quickly resolved. I recommend her highly.

Everything was fine

Excellent

The service has been very helpful, caring and a pleasure to work with.

Fantastic service. Well worth the subscription. Peace of mind.

Sarah helped me out so much with understanding the issues I had from overloading my running training. Very straight to the point and helpful advice and exercises that got me back on my feet and able to run the marathon this year which I thought was going to be out of the picture. Would highly recommend!

Easy to find, access and navigate.

Good facilities, well located and easy to get an appointment. Really happy with the physio.
