Claire has worked along side our NHS Physiotherapist and Anais’s nursery to ensure she has a seamless Physiotherapy Programme that everyone can follow and understand in order to help Anais in her everyday life. Claire has made Anais’s sessions interesting and fun and Anais loves the time she spends with her.

Each session is tailored to my daughter’s needs and every minute is beneficial. I would recommend Claire to anyone with a child that has limited movement or requires help with moving around..

Our daughter Anais has Quadriplegic Cerebal Palsy and we were looking for a private physiotherapist to work alongside her NHS Physiotherapist on a more frequent basis. For the patience and understanding she has with Anais and her continued efforts we can only say thank you.

As parents we also learnt how to continue and help develop our son outside of his therapy sessions, Claire was great at involving us all as a family. Claire could see with us all working together we could help Parker achieve the unimaginable.

My daughter was 2 years old when we found out she had high tone in her legs and would need help with her physical movements and would need physio. Claire designed a plan and now our daughter plays in standing without holding hands, she plays on the floor with her legs bent, as well as moving side to side.
