Clients reviews about Physology Bath

I have drastically improved physically after being treated by James over the past 6 months which I had serious fascia and tendon problems for a year and half prior to meeting him but now I can function properly physically which makes me appreciate being able to move without thinking about it. The rehabilitation in improving balance from my diaphragm/core with the ball work has definitely gave me stability I didn’t realise I was seriously lacking, which he also encouraged me to get 12000 steps at least 4 times a week to help with blood flow for the dehydrated tissues and tendons. I can’t thank James enough and I will be checking in with him for the foreseeable for maintenance as I am nearing full fitness. ~ Akeem H

I'd being struggling with sciatic nerve pain for a few months. Osteopathy treatments were helping to some extent. Then the pain really flared up and I was unable to work. Luckily I found Physology! James had a kind, genuine manner and took time to get a really detailed understanding of everything that was contributing to the pain. He was extremely knowledgeable about fascia and muscles, and how to get to the root cause of pain and resolve it. He took care to explain everything so I could understand what was happening in my body. After the first treatment I felt a big difference in my posture, and with every subsequent treatment it felt like another layer of damage was undone. I can definitely recommend Physology for resolving pain, and as an excellent investment in your long-term mobility. ~ Amy B

I found Physology after googling myofascial release. I booked a consultation and went to see James soon after. The initial appointment was 2 hours long. In the first hour James listened to my pain symptoms to build a picture of when/how things started. He then explained the techniques he had studied and showed me videos to back up the science behind this. He explained everything in great detail and it really made sense as to why no other treatments had fully worked before. In the second half of the session, James started the treatment on my back. I could feel it working straight away and my shoulder felt easier to move after. I am looking forward to the next series of treatments with high hopes for being in less pain eventually. ~ Sharon P

I had fibromyalgia for about 8 years and came to Physology when I was looking for myofascial release on Google. The consultation was amazing, we went through everything in so much detail and I actually felt listened to for the first time. I was pain free in about 15 sessions spread over 3 months ish with every session feeling better and better. I got advice too about my food and made some changes that definitely stopped my fibromyalgia flares too. Every now and again I'll just have a top up because the sessions feel great but I live pain free and certainly don't feel like I had fibromyalgia as they described it at the Doctors. Definitely really recommend for myofascial release and more! ~ Charlie J

I had a fantastic experience so far with James. I had been struggling with stiffness and pain all over my body for a year and a half which I believed to be my tendons, doctors scanned me and took a lot of blood tests which they never solved. James seemed to understand the problems I was going through due it his experience which none of the professionals did. I never understood what fascia was until James gave a brilliant consolation of how important it is and how it works within the body. Since the current treatments I am seeing drastic improvements to the affected areas which have given me a relieve of being able to get back to my 100% self. ~ Akeem H

Met James via some one in the gym who had got pain free from James. I'm an ex professional footballer. I was pro at the time and thinking my career was over because I kept getting injured and in constant pain. I was in the gym when I met one of James clients who saw me and said to try him cos of the work he's done with Everton. I went to him and was shocked how his appoach is almost opposite to the advice I got from my club physio. I told the club and they were happy to go with James treatment and recommendations. He got me pain free, fixed my back pain and hamstring issues. And I got that season finished. Managed to get another few years in full time before I retired from full time after 20 years in the game. We're good mates now, definitely go see him if you have any pain, in sport or not, his approach is different and myofascial release is different too. ~ Colin D

James' treatment is life changing. I had suffered with lower packpain since my teens and it affected my whole life. I had constant pain that was preventing me from doing any active sports or lifting without it cramping. I never reached excruciating pain but it was always at least a 5 out of 10 and enough to stop me living without having to think about it all the time. I had physio, treatments, sports massage, and scans from professional sports clubs, and through the NHS over several years. None of them could identify what was wrong and none of them helped. Once I met James and Physology, it was literally the first session, there was such a release I felt like he'd created an actual hole in that area. As I moved, I could feel zero pulling, like the whole area just opened up. I finished in just a few weeks and have lived pain free from that ever since. Anyone looking for myofascial release or back pain relief, I'd always say try James. It's made the difference for me. Thank you! ~ Luke M

I'm a pt for David Lloyd and I met James through a friend a few years ago. We spoke about fascia for ages and he told me about fibromyalgia and the stuff he does in sport etc. I was fine at the time generally but wanted to still try the treatment because the fascia work sounded amazing. I'd say to all my clients now, myofascial release is a game changer. It opened my body up loads to where I could train harder for longer, and recover faster. I've sent people to James with fibromyalgia, back pain, sciatica etc and everyone has been helped and ill continue to do so! ~ Patrick K

Had chronic back pain from the gym and sports over the years. Met James randomly at work and when I found out what he did I thought I'd give it a go. We spoke about fascia for ages and I found it really interesting. He got me pain free from the back pain pretty quickly which he said was easier cos I'm young. The bonus is that it helped my training massively. My range and movement in the gym is loads better too. Definitely recommend to anyone who is active in bits of pain or anything more serious or if you just want to train better. ~ Keelan S

I had suffered with lower back pain and muscle imbalances for over 20 years due to weight training, but in the last few years it began to seriously affect my performance and day-to-day life. I had tried physiotherapy and also seen an osteopath, but the pain always returned and nothing provided lasting relief. A friend recommended, James and Physiology, and although I was unsure at first, I decided to give it a try. After contacting James, my first appointment was booked quickly. He explained the cause of the problem and his approach with great clarity, which put me at ease. From the very first session, I felt an instant improvement in mobility and movement. After a few sessions, I was able to train and run again completely pain free, with far more flexibility than I’d had in years. Since then, I’ve continued to see James for maintenance sessions and have remained pain free ever since. The whole process has worked extremely well for me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend James. ~ Jay G

I have been suffering with chronic persistent back pain with muscular spasms and sciatic pain for close to 20+ years. In the last 12 weeks it significantly worsened with sharp pains radiating down the back of my thigh and heel. I had trialled deep tissue massage, sports massage, physiotherapy and also an osteopath, however the pain always returned. I had also trialled NHS pain management services however this was also unsuccessful for me and I was sick of the pain medications . I came across Physology recommended by a close friend. I thought I would try as many other mentioned services had failed. After getting in touch with James, I soon had my first appointment booked in. James explained the problem and his methods with great care and clarity. He had a great depth of knowledge and empathy. The first appointment left me feeling far more mobile, and I have since began exercising healthily a little more ! A few sessions on and I am able to get on with the usual jobs in life, with no pain and so much more flexibility. The whole journey has been rewarding, pleasant and extremely supportive. Thanks James! ~ Nayan K

I had a great first experience with James today, he is very professional and really knowledgeable. He explained to me how fascia release works and right knee definitely felt lighter and eased pain. Looking forward to my next sessions. After having even more sessions with James, my almost 10 years of knee pain is finally manageable, I’m really happy with my progress, thank you so much. ~ Hannah B

I couldn’t recommend James at Physology enough. I came across Physology on Instagram in my quest to find a treatment that works for a chronic lower back pain from a QL/psoas injury and bulging disc in the neck resulting in chronic neck and shoulder pain. It was one of James’ educational posts that caught my attention. It very well described the pain I had, why that hurt and why it was so persistent despite the treatments I had. I then decided to contact James and booked an initial consultation. At the initial appointment, James truly listened to everything I brought up and spent a good amount of time explaining about fascia and how he worked with it. This educational part was as important as the initial treatment itself. James patiently guided me so I was able to give him feedbacks that helped him do precise work on the targeted body parts effectively. I felt truly listened to for the first time and did not feel rushed out of the room. James was very skillful, he was able to get me out of pain quickly even after only a few minutes of the initial treatment. I'm now still continuing with the treatments and James has been working wonders since. Thanks, James! ~ Verna W

Went to these guys for my fibromyalgia symptoms which was mainly low back pain and burning sensations. And i had treatments over the course of two months. Never had treatment like it before, it's hard to explain. It's hands on, and they explained to me about the fascia and how they release it. They got me pain free in that time so I definitely recommend it to anyone with fibromyalgia pain. ~ Samantha N

15 years of everything hurting. Back, shoulders, legs felt like I’d been hit by a digger every morning.Having worked on building sites for over 36 years on the tools I had done more than my fair share of heavy lifting and general manual labour so I thought it was just “builder’s wear”. I couldn’t get much sleep, couldn’t lift a kettle sometimes. Docs said it is arthritis and prescribed paracetamol and other stronger medications that didn’t work. A mate of mine said try a guy called James who does Physology. I was in despair so I booked to have a consultation with him, leading to therapy sessionsI James didn’t mess about. He felt my back, said my pelvis was suffering from years of lifting things on one side, and told me about the fascia all locked up pulling everything wrong. I had treatment for just over a month in total which resulted in no more constant aches and pain. Thankfully I am now pain free. At the time I didn’t think that anything would fix it. I’m so pleased to have met James and had the treatment. I couldn’t thank him enough and I highly recommend him to anyone who is also suffering in needless pain. Thanks Again James ( magic hands🤗) ~ andrew t

I just want to share my experience with Physology having had great results. I came to them with back pain which I've had on and off for years. There was always a low level pain and terrible range of movement combined with the fact I would have regular episodes where it would lock up and the pain would travel into my neck and shoulder. Id be stuck at home laid up for days. I tried everything from physio, sports massage, chiropractors and nothing ever felt like it got deep enough to where the pain is. When I came to Physology, for the first time they explained everything, it made sense with my posture and everything they said about fascia and myofascial release. We made a plan how to attack the low back pain first and they got right into the area where it hurt for the first time. I had confidence because I actually could tell they could feel where the pain was and then it was improving every session. About 6 weeks later I was fully pain free for the first time and my posture issues were also corrected. All my fitness goals are getting hit, and I definitely feel like my life is back to normal. It's been about 5 months since and I'm still going strong. Definitely the best place I've found for back pain treatment. Thanks Physology! ~ Alex T

I had major back pain sometimes struggled to get about and motivate myself with the treatment that I was given and the due care and attention I was given not only managed to get myself mobile again. I’ve got my lease of life again thanks you did great work ~ LEE P

I go to Physology for my back pain which is mostly just from training at the gym when I over do it. I get myofascial release and deep stretching done and I'm pain free again quickly. Definitely recommend to others! Thanks James ~ Jack S

I recommend Physology to everyone for Fibromyalgia and myofascial release. Had a month of treatment with them and they got me pain free. Very knowledgeable and a completely different approach to anything I'd had before and genuinely cares too. ~ Jaimi N

James provided a detailed explanation of his plan for pain and cervicogenic headache relief prior to treatment. He inspired great confidence in me that he will solve the problems I suffer with. ~ Richard D

If you have got fibromyalgia then you have got to go and see James. He reduced my pain and made me feel so much better. Well worth the money. ~ Meditation G

I highly recommend James for myofascial release for back pain. He hugely helped my partner, we are forever grateful. ~ Izzy D

Had myofascial release from James for my back pain. He got me pain free so thanks James! ~ Ben K

I can hardly express how grateful I am to have met James. The problems with my legs started way back in 2016 . I just about managed to function, sleep and hold down a job. However , they became so much worse after Christmas 2023. I haven’t been able to work since. I’ve barely been able to sleep, despite taking a heavy dose of sleeping pills. I’ve also been to the emergency room 4 times, including twice in an ambulance. I’ve seen physics, mental health professionals, many GPs, various specialists,chiropractors, acupuncture specialists and osteopaths. It has really taken its toll in all ways imaginable. My symptoms are pulling, twisting, winding, unwinding, popping, grinding.I could go on. Even though my symptoms are very physical, I’ve been treated like a mental health patient, even by my own family . My symptoms have completely flummoxed every single professional I have seen. Once, while expressing my symptoms to a GP, I was met by “no, no , no”.Then by , “we’re done here, off you pop to Morrisons”. She had prescribed me antibiotics for a supposed infection that I knew I didn’t have and which I picked up, but never took. My partner called 111 a couple of times and I ended up with a home treatment mental health team, who prescribed me anti psychotics. When I discovered they helped me with sleep I was happy to take them. I have since come off them and now take a non addictive sleeping pill. When I met James I was literally at the end of my rope. He is such a lovely, kind, smart, interesting, empathetic and professional man. I couldn’t believe it when he normalized all of my symptoms. Not only that, he listened attentively to my story and provided excellent feedback.I was shocked , to say the least,after what I’ve been through over the past couple of years with other professionals.Not only that, he spent a long time educating me about what’s going on in my body. I immediately felt at ease. I really appreciated that consultation and I’ve never had a better one in my life. If this speaks to you I urge you to reach out to James. I have hope for the first time in a very long time. I feel so lucky to have found him. I’ve had my first appointment, which has already helped me and I trust that he will help me more and more as time goes on. Thank goodness for you, James. ~ Katherine M
