Distinct Physio レビュー 19

I have been seeing Leanne for a number of years and can highly recommend her. On one occasion when I saw her for a back issue where I could hardly move by the end of the session I was moving much better. Back was back to normal after a few sessions of treatment. Leanne has always been friendly but professional in her contact with me. She seems to be able to identify the issue easily with her experience and I have complete confidence in her ability.

very helpful. thank you for your time this week

Distinct Physiotherapy has restored my faith in physiotherapy and I can’t recommend Leanne enough!

I had a chronic pain condition and had previously seen three physiotherapists, a chiropractor and a deep tissue masseuse and all they did was make pain worse, it got so bad I had to stop activities such as exercise for years. I left it for over a decade as I lost trust in the profession and thought that the daily pain was just part of my life.

I was recommended to go to Distinct Physiotherapy when a joining gym, I booked one of the initial 15-minute consultation sessions and I have never looked back, I can’t imagine going to anyone else. Even after the initial consultation, I knew Leanne was different to my previous experiences and that she was genuinely invested in my health and not ‘another customer’, her motto is that the end goal is that you don’t need to see her again.

She also has a holistic view on dealing with the problem and doesn’t just focus on the issue as a singular entity. Quite often a pain can be referred from another part of the body that we didn’t realise there was a problem with; our lifestyle, our emotions, our sleep patterns, our physical health and environmental situations are all interconnected and can be contributing factors. She also uses a polyphasic approach to her treatment and may use massage, ultrasound waves, acupuncture or readjustment therapy depending on your condition, how the issue/condition evolves and what you feel comfortable with. Leanne adapts the treatment depending on what is needed and feedback from you. Remember, physiotherapy is an interactive process and a journey and you will likely have exercises to do at home, feedback is important and if you don’t do the homework in combination with the physiotherapy, you may not improve.

This combination of approaches and the fact that Leanne never clock watches the sessions is the major difference from all of the previous professionals I had seen before, who had a single approach mindset , and the reason why I am mainly pain free (it is a chronic condition after all).

Since dealing with my chronic condition, I had also seen Leanne for two separate acute conditions that developed last year, which are now pain free and she recently speeded up and supported my respiratory and physical recovery after being hospitalised with pneumonia. She has a wealth of experience with different conditions and doesn’t disappoint. I also sent my husband to her with a different chronic condition who had multiple steroid injections with the NHS and was still in pain, he now has pain free days which he never thought would happen. Leanne is honest and if she doesn’t think she can help you, she will tell you and recommend options.

During the covid lockdown and social distancing restrictions, Leanne has adapted her service and I have had sessions via zoom for treatment. The general perception is that a physiotherapist has to touch you but that’s only a part of the treatment, a large part of the sessions is looking at movement and mobility patterns of the body and listening to feedback which is used for diagnosis, Physio movements are then prescribed to treat the condition which can be done at home as guided by Leanne.

If you want more information or to get a flavour of Leanne and advice, aside from the website, Distinct Physiotherapy is on multiple platforms such as facebook and Instagram and Leanne posts interesting live sessions about health, thoughts for the day (one of my favourites is giving permission to take time out and additional advice during the covid lockdown) and interactive interviews with different types of people from the health industry.

I can’t thank Leanne enough for helping with the pain, I didn’t realise how much affect it had on my emotional well-being and am so much happier. Investing in your recovery is worth every penny. I’m almost a little sad that I don’t need Distinct Physiotherapy at the moment but then we have achieved the end goal!

If you are looking for a physio I could not recommend Leanne more highly.

Her experience is extensive and her ability to notice nuances in movement patterns second to none. These strengths, paired with her knack for coaching corrective stretches and movements, quickly build a highly bespoke and targeted program.

The manual mobilisations she can also carry out and her availability to video call massively help keep you progressing, in spite of your schedule/whatever niggle you may have picked up between appointments.

I had been seeing another practitioner for some time for a sore shoulder and it was not getting any better. Leanne immediately diagnosed what was wrong and after four sessions and daily exercises, my shoulder is getting stronger and is much more mobile. Can’t recommend this lovely lady enough!

Nice, approachable and professional.
I would highly recommend.

I have had 2 very good therapy sessions and now received Mr Lamberts post operative report copied to Leanne, I taken care with my exercises and not pushed myself.

Absolutely fantastic. My shoulder feels so much better after being in pain for months.

Leanne is the most amazing physio, her knowledge and expertise make her an absolute professional. She has treated me for a back and an arm injury always considering my current situation. I can honestly say I would not have been able to take up a new role if it wasn’t for the treatment Leanne gave me. Oh and she always has a new hairstyle !

Thank you so much to you Leanne, for your help over the past few months, you have helped me back to a healthier and fitter life. You have managed to motivate and encourage me to get to the root source of my back pain. Its been a journey and you have been an inspiration. Thank you!

Great friendly service
Leanne is very experienced and professional
I would highly recommend

Very knowledgeable physiotherapist, makes you feel like you’re in safe hands. She’s seen me through very difficult times with appropriate treatments and moral support; i’m proud to say my visits with her these days are mainly for “maintenance”.
At Distinct Physiotherapy the service is professional, and friendly too. I’ve already recommended Leanne to family and friends.

Structured and focused. Leanne gives one hope, structure and healing. Having an injury or condition can be a time of uncertainty, pain and at times even frightening. Leanne users her expert knowledge, reassurance, insight and listening skills to constantly check in on your condition and progress , thereby she adjusts and tailors a programme of therapy and treatment that is appropriate as time progresses.
A consummate professional , she instils me with complete trust and confidence and is delivering real results for me and others. I came to her from a referral and have since referred others who all share the same positive experiences.

If not for Leanne spotting a serious problem with my back and insisted I see a consultant, after doctor recommend physiotherapy, I might not be as active as I am now. Excellent service and attention to detail.
I have subsequently returned for help with a shoulder injury and again am feeling much better.

Very helpful and supportive. Provides excellent constant care and reassurance.

I have seen many different practitioners over the years for problems with my back.
Leanne is the first person to truly get to the route of the problem. Her assessments are thorough and considered, her treatment sessions are excellent and the exercises she gives are very helpful and realistically achievable.

Leanne is incredible! I have used her for my tennis elbow and then a bad shoulder, and in both cases she has treated my injuries quickly and got me back on track quickly. I highly recommend her

Leanne is fantastic and always goes the extra mile. I’ve seen her for various injuries - hip, knee and shoulder. Her knowledge is superb - as are her results with rehabilitation. I would highly recommend Leanne - and I do recommend her on a regular basis!
