Fabulous service at Barefoot physio, thorough diagnosis and treatment with clear instructions on exercises to do between appts. The app and video were really helpful. I would definitely recommend to others if you need a physio service. Elly was super knowledgeable and professional and really helped me.

Just completed a course of 6 treatments for a very painful back injury. Thanks to the care I received I have seen a huge improvement. Elly was informative and very positive and has given me a set of exercises to hopefully ensure the improvement is maintained. Will certainly recommend this friendly professional practice.

I recently received physiotherapy on my shoulder at Barefoot Clinic after experiencing a dislocation, and I must say, the service provided was exceptional. The treatment I received for my shoulder injury was top-notch and greatly aided my recovery process. Elly Skinner, a member of the Barefoot team, was the one who treated me throughout my physiotherapy sessions. I cannot praise her expertise and dedication enough. Elly was not only knowledgeable about the intricacies of physiotherapy but also displayed genuine care and concern for my well-being. She made sure to tailor the treatment plan to suit my specific needs, and her encouraging demeanor kept me motivated during the challenging phases of my rehabilitation. What sets Barefoot apart from other clinics is their commitment to providing personalized care. The team at Barefoot Clinic takes the time to understand each patient's condition thoroughly, and their treatments are not one-size-fits-all. This approach made me feel valued as a patient and gave me the confidence that I was in capable hands. To my friends and colleagues, I would highly recommend Barefoot Clinic for any physiotherapy needs. From my own experience, I can vouch for their professionalism, effectiveness, and friendly atmosphere. Whether it's post-injury rehabilitation or any other physiotherapy requirements, I am confident that Barefoot Clinic and their team, particularly Elly Skinner, will deliver outstanding results and make the recovery journey as smooth as possible. I couldn't have asked for a better place to receive the care and support needed during my shoulder injury recovery.

Came to Barefoot with 2 sporting injuries and saw the fantastic Elly. Really easy to work with her and to plan my way back to recovery. After a few months and regularly check-in I’m back to full fitness and able to return to my regular day-to-day activities. A big thanks to Elly and the Barefoot team.
