Common questions
- Can I be seen the same week?
- Usually yes. We hold evening slots on Tuesdays and Fridays until 8pm for people who train or work full time.
- Do you scan injuries in the clinic?
- Yes. A diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound scan can be added to your assessment (£150 for the 60-minute appointment) so tendon and muscle injuries are confirmed on the day.
- Do you treat runners and gym injuries?
- Regularly — runners, footballers, rowers, cyclists and gym-goers across Oxford, with return-to-sport testing before you go back.
- What does focused shockwave treat?
- Persistent tendinopathy, plantar fasciopathy and calcific shoulder pain that has not settled with rehab alone.
