What Our Clients Say..

I saw James regarding my Achilles problems which I have been suffering with for a while, I found him very knowledgeable and informative. My only regret Is that I didn’t make the appointment sooner. After a proper diagnosis James gave me an exercise plan to follow which he emailed to me, Just by having the correct information I am now well on my way to recovery, I would 100% recommend Barefoot Physio and will definitely return there should I need to in the future.

Lesley Allen

I can’t thank the team at Barefoot Physio enough, and in particular Elly Skinner. Elly is clearly passionate about what she does, incredibly knowledgeable and thoroughly nice. Service has been excellent from beginning to end. Location is great with parking nearby, facilities are clean, modern and clinical, and most importantly the treatment has been excellent. Elly quickly identified what my injury was, how I was aggravating it and set me clear, achievable exercises to make it better. I had suffered for months with no improvement before going to Barefoot, and after 6 sessions I’m no longer struggling with constant pain and my quality of life has improved dramatically.

John Friskey

I’ve tried 3 separate physios for runners knee issues, over 8 years, with no success. Then I came to see James! I’ve managed to get back to skateboarding, ,surfing, cycling and running, which has been great. With the strengthening exercises he showed me, I have for the first time in 8 years been pain free doing the exercises I love. I’d definitely recommend James and his approach. He takes a holistic, ‘whole picture’ view of your situation, and is very switched on and savvy in his approach. I’ve learnt a lot from him in a few months and would definitely recommend the Barefoot Physio Clinic. Thanks James!

zulusoundboy

I have used James and Barefoot for many years now and always had first class care. My most common reason for seeing James has been my back and although I understand “physio” (exercises) are also good habits I should maintain, his manual manipulation has also provided instant pain relief on several occasions. I find James gives an honest service never prescribing more visits then required as other physios can do. I have found the whole Barefoot team professional but also relaxed and approachable. Central location with a carpark right nextdoor. Highly recommend.

Lesley Allen

I’ve been visiting Barefoot physio on and off for a while. Chronic pain is like that. But happily the experience is always positive. The team is knowledgeable, friendly, and supportive. I’ve been helped enormously by James’s expertise in managing complex conditions and am now benefitting from supportive massage with Fran. It is great to have a plan as well as access to multiple people and approaches in one place, and the space they have created is a pleasure to spend time in and feels recuperative in itself.

Gail

Had a great couple of appointments with James to sort out my back spasm. Great holistic approach not only to ease the spasm but also preventative maintenance to stop it reoccurring. Highly recommended physiotherapist for personalized and effective treatment. Thanks James.

Grant Thompson

Having had a very successful course of treatment for a frozen shoulder last year at this physio centre, I have now completed a course of sessions to treat a very painful foot condition. James provided an excellent service, making a swift diagnosis, giving clear explanations and set a course of exercises. These are backed up on a very straightforward phone app, so I had no difficulty following them. Exercise, alongside some shock wave treatment has been most effective and walking is no longer the painful challenge it was. I am approaching full fitness now. The centre has a positive atmosphere with excellent facilities. I have recommended Barefoot to friends who have received similar positive treatment.

ChasC

I have had hundreds of hours of physio over the years post-knee surgeries, but 1 hour with James to tackle the source of a running injury was one of the most useful, productive and helpful sessions I’ve ever had! I came away feeling motivated and in control of a swift recovery, and learnt a lot about my running style and ways to prevent further injuries. Really grateful!

5/5
I have been seeing Fran for regular deep tissue massage, initially for on going back pain and stiffness, I am now pain free. Fran takes time at the beginning of every session to check in, discuss any issues / concerns and ensures she takes a holistic approach. This means that the focus of the massage is always where it needs to be for me, I particularly like the hots stones, and attention to detail in terms of comfort and warmth. It is truly relaxing and rejuvenating.
Lorna Wagstaff
Over the years I’ve been to many massage clinics, but Barefoot is by far the best. Fran is excellent, she is so attuned to her client’s needs and will always take the time to understand your needs on the day, tailoring her approach. Fran can do both relaxing and deep tissue massages depending on what you’re after, can’t recommend her enough!
Emma Wills-Fuest
I had such a wonderful Indian Head Massage with Gemma today. She was very welcoming and kind, and I especially liked how she did a thorough consultation before the massage to make sure all of my needs were met. She even let me pick which oils she used for the massage which was lovely! I also really enjoyed the cool stones she used to help with tension in my jaw, that was a really nice added touch. Thank you for a really calming and relaxing experience, Gemma!
Tyler Grupen
I had a wonderful head and back massage today. I was very well looked after by Gemma and the whole experience was amazing. I would recommend Gemma for her massage techniques, personal manner, making me feel comfortable and ensuring I enjoyed the massage. I will definitely be returning soon.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, massage is safe and can be very beneficial during pregnancy. However, we do ask that you wait to book a massage until you are at least 12 weeks pregnant. You can rest assured that our team of massage therapists are highly trained and passionate when it comes to pregnancy and massage. Feel free to get in touch with us before scheduling an appointment if you have any questions, as we understand each pregnancy is unique and your well-being is our priority.
The simple answer is yes, however depending on your comfort and how far you are into your pregnancy we may modify the massage to your needs and comfort so you can get the most from your treatment.
A postnatal massage is a great way to honour all that your body has been through after pregnancy and birth. Massage can provide you with that much needed self-care and nourish your well-being, relieving stress and anxiety. If you have had a caesarean you may wish to consult with your doctor before booking a massage to make sure your body is fully healed. Alternatively, you can contact us to discuss any queries or concerns. We are very accommodating to women postnatally and welcome you to bring your baby with you to your treatment should you wish to.
