Why we plan the gaps.
The early sessions do the most when they sit close together. After that, the work you do between sessions matters more. We set the spacing from your assessment, review it each time, and tell you when you no longer need to come.
Regular booking is a recommendation, never a condition, and no number of sessions guarantees a result.

You see Alexander at every session.

The terms, in plain words.
- Change of plan? With 24 hours or more notice, move your session free or cancel for a full refund. Under 24 hours, move it for £20, or cancel and it counts as used.
- Programmes. If your assessment shows a programme is not right for you, everything except the assessment is refunded.
- Insurance. We do not bill insurers, but every session comes with a full receipt and paid invoice so you can claim on your own policy.
- No referral needed. Book directly. Some insurers ask for a GP referral before you claim.
- Both clinics, one price list. Every session runs at Kings Cross and Hampstead at the same price.
- Returning clients sign in before booking, so your notes stay linked to your plan.
Questions about sessions and prices.
Which session should I book first?+
For pain, tightness or tension that keeps coming back, book the Blueprint Assessment. For an injury that needs rehabilitation, such as a tendon problem, a knee or shoulder that will not take load, or recovery after surgery, book The Cornerstone. Not sure? Start with the Blueprint Assessment, or call the clinic on 07897 732158.
How much is a sports massage at Achilles?+
We do not sell a massage on its own. Every client starts with an assessment, because the treatment is chosen from what it finds. Your first visit is the Blueprint Assessment: 75 minutes, £129, with hands-on treatment included.
Can I claim on my health insurance?+
We do not bill insurers directly. Every session comes with a full receipt and a paid invoice, which you can use to claim from your own policy or health cash plan if it covers treatment. Check your policy first: some insurers ask for a GP referral.
What should I wear?+
Comfortable clothes you can move in. Shorts help if the problem is in your legs or hips.
Are the prices the same at Hampstead?+
Yes. Kings Cross and Hampstead run the full session menu at the same prices, with the same practitioner.
Are you a registered physiotherapist?+
No. Physiotherapist is a protected title for HCPC registered clinicians, and Alexander is not registered, so we never use it. Here is what you get instead. Alexander is an ISRM Level 5 Soft Tissue Therapist with 6+ years of MSK rehabilitation and 5+ years of strength coaching. He has treated 729 clients across 935 appointments, and coached 109 clients through strength training. If your assessment points to something that needs a registered clinician, a doctor or a scan, he tells you and refers you on.
