Blueprint Assessment.
Your first visit, and the session everything else is built on. We run the Achilles Method in full: assess how your body moves, release what is driving your pain, and set your direction. You leave with a written treatment plan built around you, a staged course of hands-on sessions to work through in order. Every new client starts here.
Delivered by Alexander Khang, ISRM Level 5 soft tissue therapist at Achilles Clinic, Kings Cross and Hampstead.
What our clients say.
Google reviews from our clinics in Kings Cross and Hampstead.
“After struggling with Achilles tendon pain that had prevented me from running properly for some time. The rehabilitation was structured around gradually increasing my capacity rather than rushing the process. I was given clear guidance on loading, recovery and exercise progression, which made the whole process much easier to understand. Excellent clinical approach and very professional throughout, single handedly by one practitioner only. Highly recommend this clinic for anyone in Hampstead”

“Absolutely excellent therapist. I arrived with horribly tight and tense shoulders and neck and after a thorough consultation I got a thoughtful and bespoke treatment addressing the issues I raised and more I didn’t know were there. Alexander was very professional and polite and clearly knows what he is doing. I will be back!”

“I injured my ankle playing sport a few months ago and was still having stability and flexibility issues. Alexander did a very thorough assessment, getting to the root of the problem and building plan for going forwards - highly recommend!”

Assessment
A full case history and whole body movement screen. Alexander identifies where restriction is, what is compensating, and what is driving your symptoms. This determines everything that follows.
