Scoliosis SOS Clinic Opiniones 152

I’ve been seeing Ella and Lewis for a number of months now at the Bristol clinic and I’ve found it really helpful. I have gained a lot of knowledge about my own scoliosis, pain management, what exercises I need to be doing going forward and have gained strength and fitness since starting. I’ve also noticed a difference in the way I hold my posture, I don’t have anywhere near as much pain as before and the general appearance of my back has changed which I’m really pleased with. Ella and Lewis are very knowledgeable, friendly and professional and always make me feel comfortable in my sessions while also encouraging me when needed. I would highly recommend them!
I wish I had had this available to me as a teenager to prevent further progression as I’ve got older.

I’ve been visiting the SOS clinic for the past 8 years or so, and my recent appointment with Chrissy was fantastic. She was patient and professional, and immediately located the knots and areas in my back that were painful, and worked to alleviate the pain and establish why it was happening in the first place. I felt completely confident in her care, and have already booked multiple treatment sessions for the coming months!

I can't recommend Scoliosis SOS enough...
I first heard about them from a family member and since then I have seen them multiple times and have recently just attended the Scoliosis gold course.
This course has help me so much in inderstanding how my back works and how to correct it.
It was intense, quite painful at times and not easy to constantly look at yourself in the mirror. However it was 100% worth it. The exercices are brilliant, you can feel it working the specific areas, they make you feel stronger and straighter each time. And the improvement/results and amazing. My family were so impressed with the results!
I love how they use the heat scan which really allows you to see the different areas. And all the other tests are very interesting too.
But most importantly the therapists at the London Clinic are so kind and gentle. They support you and make sure you are doing okay at all time. They are young and make the course as fun as they can which is not easy when you are repeatedly doing exercises that require concentration, mental visualisation as well as physical strength.
They are a group of several therapist who rotate throughout the course which is great, as you get to see different therapists who point out different things and help you out in different ways. For my part I mostly had Scott, Mia, Anna and Luke who were all brilliant in their own way.
The admin crew are always there to help, especially for me being from abroad, they insured all was okay.
I have recommended this clinic to several people with Scoliosis and will continue to do so. I'm trying my best to continue the exercices at home but can't wait for the next appointment.
A big thank you to all the team for all your help and advice.

I have been attending the sessions at Scoliosis SOS for a number of years and am always impressed with the results.

During my most recent sessions, I worked with Ben Lock a large percentage of the time as he helped me with weakness in my leg that was triggered from pinched nerves due to the scoliosis.

Firstly, Ben was so patient and endured my frustrations during my initial struggles with the new exercises. However with time, some strength returned and I was feeling much better and more confident at the end of the course.

Ben took the time to find exercises that would benefit me and then helped me fine tune my approach when doing them. This was well above and beyond the scoliosis-specific exercises for which I registered. Due to Ben’s help and attention, I continue to feel the benefits.

I appreciate all of Ben’s efforts as well as those from the other therapists. I will definitely return for refresher courses.

I highly recommend Scoliosis SOS!

I highly recommend Scoliosis SOS for specialised physiotherapy for the treatment of scoliosis. The tools I was taught during my therapy have been invaluable and have set me up completely for continuing therapy at home. Henry was very professional, personable and an encouraging physiotherapist and made me feel at ease during treatment.

My Son visits 6 monthly check in sessions with Henry and he always makes us feel welcome. He keeps my son inspired to keep working hard at home in between check up sessions.

I am 72 years old and recently completed 45 hours of physio (bronze programme) for scoliosis and kyphosis at the Manchester Clinic. I am very happy with the improvements in my posture, and technical measurements of both conditions following the programme. I wasn’t suffering great pain at the outset, but I am fairly confident that pain and discomfort will be less of a problem for me in the future, than if I hadn’t undergone the programme, provided of course that I keep up the exercises at home.
Scott and Henry made the sessions as jolly and comfortable as I could have expected, and the 2 hour sessions passed quickly. Their professional skills were exemplary; the purposes of the exercises and technical analyses were clearly explained. The programme is not cheap, and I consider myself lucky to have been able to experience the treatment. I would have given a 5* rating in this review - however changes in staffing at the Manchester clinic half way through the programme meant that I had some difficulty booking sessions in a timely way.
Thank you Henry and Scott for conducting the sessions in an amiable and respectful way, and making them as enjoyable as possible!

I am so grateful for all that Scoliosis SOS have done for me. Henry really cares about his clients and uses his extensive knowledge and passion to put my mind at ease throughout our sessions. I feel 100% comfortable in Henry’s care and I know I can trust any advice or information he gives me. Henry puts so much effort into ensuring I am happy with the process. He makes me feel extremely welcomed and relaxed as if we’ve known each other for years. I recommend him and the clinic to everyone struggling and in need of help.

Annie is the BEST! I love Scoliosis SOS so much - I did the fast track course in 2022 and it didn’t only decrease my pain significantly, my spine has improved a lot! Having my follow ups with Annie are so great - it helps to stay on track and I always feel comfortable to be 100% honest with her - if I haven’t been able to do everything I’ll tell her and she helps me to find a way to make everything more accessible. If you can do it, this is truly an investment worth making.

My teenage son with mild scoliosis in the lower spine was provided the bronze level course of treatment by Ella and Lewis in Bristol. He did this with two or three sessions a week over 8 weeks, with a mix of in-person treatment in Bristol, and virtual sessions with Scott in London.

As well as learning more about his condition, he has been given the skills and confidence to handle his condition going forward. There has been a notable improvement in his posture, even in such a short space of time, though it'll take longer to affect change on the spine.

He really enjoyed the sessions with Lewis and Ella, finding them kind and knowledgeable.

Parking near the clinic can be a bit tight, but we found a space in neighbouring roads without too much trouble. And there are plenty of decent cafes nearby for mum or dad to grab a coffee and cake!

I would highly recommend anyone to use this clinic , having suffered for several years it was a huge relief to have the support and reassurance that I didn’t have to suffer with chronic pain for the rest of my life. Ella has been kind and thoughtful with huge determination for my well being , with thanks and much gratitude

I have 6 monthly check up session to review exercise programme and to receive guidance on mantaining technique.
The therapist is very supportive and encouraging and I always leave the session with a sence of optomism and motivation for the next 6 months

Our teenage daughter sustained a sudden, unique and rare injury which caused a curve in her spine. We had a consultation with Ella and were very impressed. Ella was confident: she worked with our daughter and skilfully transferred her knowledge of the spine and surrounding muscles to improve the injured area. Ella has achieved exactly this and more. The results have been amazing and our daughter is back up to full mobility. Her back has aligned and we are all so happy. Extraordinary Ella!

Ella is an amazing physio. She has been working with my daughter for the past two years. She has strengthened the weak muscles which were causing an imbalance and reduced her pain. She makes each session fun and enjoyable. It is worth the consistent effort and hours to improve posture and strength. We would highly recommend Ella and ScoliosisSOS. They were truly an amazing find for us.

Ella is very knowledgeable and explained my curvature and the exercises clearly. If I am experiencing pain or muscle tightness she is happy to incorporate physical therapy, such as massage or dry needling to help. The programme has helped me hugely - my back is mostly pain free now whereas when I came I was in pain most of the time. The exercises have strengthened the weak muscles down one side of my spine and enabled me to have a better posture. It takes commitment and persistence but is well worth it. I am so pleased and relieved to have benefitted from Ella's expertise and help!

Very professional & thorough physiotherapist. After working on a programme at home, it was good to get feedback on progress.

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional care and attention you provided during my physical therapy sessions.

When I first walked into your clinic, I was filled with uncertainty and apprehension about my path to recovery.

After looking for alternative treatments other than surgery for about 4 years,  I found SOS Scoliosis.
From booking my first assessment to all my hours at the exercise room, I am thankful to all faces!
I had 65 hours of treatment, and the first 30 were with Finty. She helped me understand all my exercises and explain why each part was so important. She transmitted all knowledge and set me up for success.
My last 30 hours or so I spent with Ben where together we chose which exercises worked best for me going forward and worked on the things I needed improving. He also taped my shoulder and gave me deep tissue massages, which I believe helped in my recovery.
Overall I am highly satisfied and am looking forward to my 6 month check up.
A massive thanks to finty and Ben! Both are great at their job and always made me feel listened to.
I left my 65 hours with a home exercise program and the knowledge to treat and look after my scoliosis.

I have been treated by Scoliosis SOS for a year and eight months, and by Finty Ilsley for the past eight months. I was disappointed when my previous therapist left but I have since been delighted and impressed by Finty’s work.

Finty is personally very pleasant to work with; we laugh but we also work hard and effectively. I am 82 but measurements show my scoliosis curves are improving and the twisting of my spine has been halted.

Finty is always extremely prompt with notes after each session to remind me what to work on at home, and all my questions are swiftly answered.

In short I would thoroughly recommend Finty Ilsley as a talented and caring therapist, who has helped me a great deal and continues to do so.

People seem to be at the heart of all they do at Scoliosis SOS. All the staff we came into contact with at the London centre were open, friendly and engaged.
Our nominated therapists were sensational - combining advanced knowledge of the condition and impressive practical skill sets.
Annie & Luke were both gentle, respectful and sensitive to our needs with endless patience. We found the treatment challenging at times and they engaged us with fun and creativity which was the key for us.
Highly recommended.
