  • Hands on treatment combined with proper rehabilitation
  • Clear explanations in plain English, no jargon
  • Private, unhurried appointments with dedicated parking

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a GP referral to see a physiotherapist?
No. You can self refer and book directly online or by phone. Most people book themselves in without involving their GP at all.
Where exactly are you based?
The clinic is at 9 Eastwood Meadow, Rainham, Gillingham, Kent ME8 8FA, with dedicated parking directly outside. We see patients from across Rainham, Gillingham, Chatham, Rochester and the wider Medway area.
What happens at a first appointment?
A proper conversation about what has been going on, a thorough assessment that looks beyond the painful area, a clear explanation of what is happening, and a plan built around your goals. You leave understanding your problem.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on the condition and your goals. After the first assessment you will get a clear plan with realistic timelines rather than an open ended commitment.
Do you work with private medical insurance?
Yes, we work with all the major providers including Bupa, AXA and Aviva.
Do you treat anything other than chronic pain?
Yes. We treat the full range of musculoskeletal problems, including back and neck pain, sciatica, sports injuries, knee and shoulder problems, rehabilitation and sports massage. Persistent pain is one specialist area within a broader clinic.
