What physiotherapy and rehabilitation at Achilles helps with
If you searched for a physiotherapist, here is what we handle most.
- →
Lower back pain and sciatica-type symptoms
- →
Neck and shoulder tension from desk work
- →
Knee, hip and ankle load problems
- →
Achilles, calf and lower-limb injuries
- →
Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
- →
Running and gym injuries
- →
Returning to training after injury or after an NHS discharge
We treat the cause, then load the tissue so it does not come back. That is what conventional physio skips.
How it works
Assessment
A 60-minute clinical assessment. Full-body movement and load screen, not a five-minute intake.
Tension Release
Hands-on soft tissue work targeting the actual restriction, not where it hurts.
Strength Rebuild
A written loading plan that retrains the tissue so the problem does not return.
Why Achilles, not a clinic chain

Reviews
What our clients say.
Verified reviews from Google, Fresha and Treatwell.
"I've had sports massage from probably eight different therapists over ten years of running. Alexander is in a different category. He explained what was actually happening in my IT band before touching it, which no one has ever done. Three sessions and the knee issue I'd had for two years is gone. I don't say that lightly."
Sarah M.
"Chronic upper back tension from desk work. I'd tried everything, osteopathy, physio, regular massage. Nothing stuck for more than a week. Alexander found a restriction in my thoracic spine that nobody had identified before and worked on it systematically across four sessions. Six months later and it hasn't come back."
James T.
"Booked the clinical assessment because I'd been told different things by three different physios and had no idea who was right. Alexander's assessment was the most thorough I've had. The written report explained my shoulder issue in a way I actually understood. The treatment plan was logical, not generic. Worth every penny just for the clarity."
