Written Testimonials
After persistent back problems caused by a rugby injury and having seen physiotherapists with varying degrees of success I contacted Swindon Sports Therapy and arranged an appointment. Their approach and explanation of what was wrong and how it would be treated inspired confidence, and after the course of treatment, my back is at its best for years.
Swindon Sports Therapy have an holistic approach to solving the problem and look at the whole body, treating the cause rather than just the area of pain. As a result of the treatment I am now plantar fasciitis free, back running confidently and feeling better than I have done in a very long time. Swindon Sports Therapy are extremely professional and always provide an explanation of the treatment, why they are doing it and what that will involve. I felt completely at ease and I have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending Swindon Sports Therapy.
I went to the Swindon Sport therapy clinic with lower back pain and restricted movement. They treated much more than my back symptoms, really looking at what other parts of my body were causing the problems. Through massage and simple stretching exercises my pain has now gone and areas of my body that I now realise had been giving me restricted movement for a long time have freed up again. I also feel I have the tools to keep me this way. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.
It has been amazing seeing and feeling the difference that just a few months have made and best of all, I can run again without any discomfort! I found the sessions to be very informative in helping me to understand my injury.
I arrived at the door of Swindon Sports Therapy with a calf injury. They were excellent and immediately found the root of the problem. After a few sessions all these issues have been sorted and I can honestly say it has helped me achieve more in my fitness regime. Without hesitation I would recommend Swindon Sports Therapy for the professional, expert and friendly treatment I received.
Excellent sports therapy. I was having ankle pains for several months. The problems with my ankle and associated area were quickly identified. The sports massages and exercises given quickly helped my injury and by the fourth session my problem was almost entirely fixed. I would highly recommended Swindon Sports Therapy.
The best treatment by far! I’ve had 5 different Physiotherapists over the years and the physiotherapy techniques I’ve had from the Sports Therapists here have been the best yet. Easy to work with, give great ‘at-home’ exercise to do and has sorted all my sports injuries.
From the very first session I noticed massive improvements and a reduction in the pain and discomfort I lived with daily. Having spent nearly 8 years trying different health professionals in and out of the country, this has by far been the best. I can’t thank Swindon Sports Therapy enough and would highly recommend them.
Simply put this was an amazing experience. I would go as far as describing my recovery as miraculous. After 6 years of crippling shoulder pain, 4 therapists and over a thousand pounds wasted I had pretty much given up on the thought of a healthy shoulder. I took a punt on Swindon Sports Therapy and boy did it pay off. In just a couple of sessions they were able to identify the root cause and remedy my pain. I still can’t believe I am pain free! Highly recommend they certainly know what they are doing.
Absolutely fantastic! Very knowledgeable and personable, and always looking to do the best job possible. Having had knee and back problems for years as a result of taekwondo and office life, 2 sessions helped restore control and strength to my legs where previous physiotherapy had failed.
Very pleased I came here. Very professional with a relaxed atmosphere. I had suffered with muscular pain for over 5 years, unbearable at times. Now after only a few treatments it has gone! I can’t express how grateful I am to Swindon Sports Therapy for their treatment methods and their concern for my fitness and wellbeing. If you are suffering from any physical health problems contact this clinic and see for yourself what progress you can make with their help.

Swindon Sports Therapy have been instrumental in my back recovery. I cannot recommend them enough. With a blown disc and hyper mobility, I have gone from being in constant pain, unable to do my training and wanting to actually have surgery to now being practically pain free and able to do all of my training and more!
I have been to many Physios but none of them were able to help. Swindon Sports Therapy were able to help me using their considered style of Physio and treatment, with concise exercises and stretching. They have also helped me with understanding pain, how to manage it and how not to be afraid of it, thereby giving me the confidence to do what I wanted to do.
I feel amazing. I am back on my bike, running, swimming and now training on Olympic Rings! My ability to do this is down to Swindon Sports Therapy and I am truly grateful.
I initially visited Swindon Sports Therapy in December 2010 with a severe flare up of an historic back problem. It proved to be the first step of a major life change for me. After my first treatment my back pain was immediately reduced to a manageable level that gave me the confidence to proceed with my life and has made it possible for me to return to my favourite exercise of swimming, training competitively for the first time in 20 years!
I have been treated by Swindon Sports Therapy for a number of issues across a period of several years and can honestly say that they have addressed each one with a combination of intuition, knowledge, understanding and skill. Swindon Sports Therapy deal with the underlying causes of problems by having a truly holistic approach to treatment; they recognise the value of healing the body in its entirety rather than just focusing upon random or isolated symptoms. As a result they have not only dealt commendably with specific aches and pains but also improved my general sense of well-being.
I have previously had a series of ineffective treatment through traditional physiotherapy, operations carried out by orthopaedic surgeons, injections etc. Since going to Swindon Sports Therapy they have used a variety of techniques to help ease my back pain and coach me in ways to manage and prevent issues from reoccurring. They don’t only treat the problem but explain how each of the techniques works and also why each technique is being used.
All of those injuries that I had left to build up over the years thinking I will sort them one day and never got round to it are finally getting sorted. As a busy working mum putting myself first has never been a priority but Swindon Sports Therapy has made me realise that I need to think about myself. From ankles, calves, knee, back to shoulder I am finally ridding myself of all the pain I have just put up with for years thanks to Swindon Sports Therapy and their physiotherapy techniques.
Swindon Sports Therapy has helped me enormously with a chronic neck problem. With combined gentle exercise and massage therapy specific to my needs I am able to get on with everyday life with ease.
I became a client of Swindon Sports Therapy’s about 2 years ago to aid my recovery from a serious ankle injury sustained in 2003. Thanks to Swindon Sports Therapy I am now able to walk more often, covering greater distances with fair less pain than before. In my personal opinion Swindon Sports Therapy is a brilliant practice. They are trustworthy, reliable and very honest about what can be achieved with treatment. In short they improved my quality of life by 100%.
Swindon Sports Therapy has been supporting my son for 4 years, since he began serious competitive swimming at the age of 12; my son is now a National level swimmer. Swindon Sports Therapy treats my son on a regular basis, not only for muscle fatigue but also for the occasional injury. He has helped my son overcome injury problems whilst still continuing his training programme, by treatment and advice – on when and at what level of intensity to train at, whilst recovering from injury.
When you’ve got a torn calf muscle, it comes as no surprise that you seek out a physiotherapist and expect to make a full recovery. It’s a life changing experience when you also get long running osteo-arthritic shoulders moving painlessly after years of discomfort, and when your dodgy knees regain their robustness of the past. I’ve had so many old injuries and niggles that I had learned simply put up with them, but Swindon Sports Therapy not only successfully treated those injuries, they gave me the confidence to believe that I don’t have to expect of future of increasing immobility with age.
After a high speed road traffic accident left me with whiplash in my back and neck a recommendation led me to Swindon Sports Therapy. I was impressed by their careful evaluation that they made at each visit and the combination of techniques they used to treat me.
The severe back and headaches I used to have never came back after I started receiving treatment from Swindon Sports Therapy. Not only did they identify the root cause for my problems, but they also taught me how to manage my everyday life so that I do not get the pains again. Before, I never thought I could have a full week without headaches. Now months pass and I do not get any!
A few months ago as I began to have problems with my right knee, and on some occasions was unable to put weight on it when going up steps or uphill, I asked on Facebook if anyone knew of any good physiotherapists in my area, and I was recommended Jamie Webb. I went along and was assessed, with all aspects of my health taken into account, Jamie diagnosed a muscle imbalance, and immediately began working on releasing muscles in many parts of my body, but strangely (not to him) this had the effect of strengthening the muscles around my knee. I have since completed a 100k non stop walk, plus have trekked round Iceland with no further problems to my knee (or any other part of my poor body). I assure you that if Jamie is given a body suffering in any way from the traumas of sport, he will have you diagnosed, and be working on the problem within the first 30 minutes of your appointment, and you WILL leave after the 1st hour already aware of improvement.

As an ultrarunner I approached Jamie with much trepidation, expecting the usual advice to stop running silly distances and I wouldn’t be complaining of injuries. Instead, I was met with complete acceptance of ‘what I do’ combined with consistent ‘work’ on the source of my injuries/complaints. I couldn’t recommend Swindon Sports Therapy highly enough. It has been a joy to finally run pain-free again. My running complaints have ranged from ankle injuries to IT-band trouble, lazy glutes, core and hip stresses and strains … ALL of which I can happily say are currently in the best condition they can be in. Will I stop running? No. But the holistic approach of Swindon Sports Therapy has allowed me to continue, improve and race pain-free. Thank you
These guys know their onions. After several Ironmans and too many marathons I was looking for someone to activate underused muscle groups and to help me feel less creaky overall. After sessions with Swindon Sports Therapy I felt great and left with a whole new understanding of the human body. They shared a lot of new and interesting insights and gave me a series of treatments that really worked.
Jamie knows what he’s doing, though don’t expect traditional physiotherapy. I visited with a calf tear recovery problem after a recommendation by a friend. I couldn’t run without damaging it over and over again. Jamie’s holistic approach had me running again within the month, and I’m still running, building up distance again. While he was at it he’s helped massively with problems with my ankle and shoulder, definitely seek him out if you’re having problems.
Meeting Jamie for the first time was a very enjoyable experience, he explained a whole new way of the strains I had been putting on my body through Marathon running, tennis and bad posture, Within 30 mins he was working away and my body started to feel 10 years younger. A completely new and invigorating approach to back and muscles problems that I had battled with over the years. Jamie is extremely good at getting fast results and you back on track with your exercise routines and he even sets you homework I would have no hesitation of recommending Swindon Sports Therapy to anyone.
I compete in a lot of endurance sports and high impact sports too. I have been using Swindon Sports Therapy for a few years now and they are among the very best I have seen (and I’ve seen a few over the years!). Highly recommended.
I am a full time Irish dance teacher in my 50’s and have been attending the clinic for treatment on my knees. I have received excellent personalised care and advice from Dan, who was able to put me at my ease with his thoughtful and cheerful manner, so that I am able to continue my teaching career. I would highly recommend this clinic for any sports or indeed other injury that requires physical therapy.
I picked up an IT band knee injury while training for the Brighton marathon this year that prevented me running any more than 5-10k without serious pain. I’d all but given up hope of running the marathon after trying various things to fix it without success. I started seeing Dan less than 6 weeks before the marathon and after about 3-4 session I was able to run a lot further with much less pain. By the day of the marathon, my knee felt almost completely better, and I ran the whole thing with no knee pain at all! I don’t claim to fully understand everything Dan does, but it definitely works. Amazing stuff & highly recommended!
Dan and Jamie are a really professional and friendly outfit and have helped me on numerous occasions following an op and following numerous cycling injuries. Their premises are clean, their advice is sound and the services they offer are totally centred around you as a patient. For me it’s their holistic approach to the body as a whole that really works, they’re interested in finding a long term solution and not just fixing the obvious problem.
My 16 year old son, who is a swimmer, was suffering an injury and that’s how we were introduced to Swindon Sports Therapy. I was amazed how quick the treatment helped Liam back to full fitness. Having suffered myself with Shoulder, Neck and Upper Back pain for years, I decided to ask if Jamie could help me too. Previous visits to NHS Physiotherapy clinics and Chiropractic treatment had been unsuccessful, but thankfully Jamie’s Magic not only worked but enabled me to take up exercise classes that I hadn’t been able to enjoy for years. When I explain what the treatment has done for me, I say “Jamie fixed me.” When my husband saw the results of my treatment, he too wanted to be fixed and a course of treatment from Jamie and Dan have enabled him to realise his own potential as a swimmer, by getting back in the pool and not only training but competing again after 28 years out of the water. Jamie gets to know his clients and uses a holistic approach. This enables him to deliver a treatment programme that is tailor made for each individual.
Although blessed with the physique of an athlete, I am not particularly sporty. Instead I saw Swindon Sports Therapy for a bad back caused (I think) by lifting a toddler repeatedly in and out of a car. They literally helped me walk taller by diagnosing the source of the problem, working on it and, best of all, teaching me some techniques to self fix in future. I can’t recommend highly enough.
After a couple months of treatment on my ankle I’ve even been able to start walking pain-free and even running again! My ankle keeps improving with each treatment – the swelling has reduced and I no longer feel in pain when I walk which is brilliant! If you are feeling skeptical about treatments like physiotherapy or sports therapy then I would definitely recommend try this out. From the first session I noticed an improvement and I’m so glad I didn’t put off treatment for any longer – it’s so nice to be ‘back to normal’!
I first went to Swindon Sports Therapy in May 2013 following pains in my right knee after taking up running at the age of 48. Both Dan and Jamie have been fantastic in sorting out all my little niggles to allow me to keep on running and complete my first half marathon this year. I have been delighted to be able to recommend Swindon Sports Therapy to my running buddies, who have also been delighted with the service and support that they have received.
