I was amazed that the physiotherapy has resulted in me being headache free, the first time in months...

I was recently referred to Physio 23, following my consultation with a neurologist. I was amazed that the physiotherapy has resulted in me being headache free, the first time in months. The treatment I have received was wonderful and each week my condition improved. I can’t recommend Physio 23 enough. My therapist was extremely knowledgeable and has given me so much relief. To be out of awful head pain that I had been suffering with is just wonderful.
