Canterbury's most reviewed physios
Your first appointment is a double session, a full 60 minutes with your physio, so we can find the cause and start treatment.
You cannot try a physio before you book. The next best thing is to know what their patients say about them.
So we ask ours anonymously via email, how likely they are to recommend us to friends and family. Their answers give a Net Promoter Score, a measure used worldwide.
Healthcare averages 65. Over 80 is world class across all industries. Our patients gave us 98.
How NPS score works: Patients rate us from 0 to 10. The score is the percentage who give 9 or 10, minus the percentage who give 0 to 6.
Our score: from 112 patient responses between 1 January and 16 October 2026.
World class over 80, as defined by Bain & Company, who invented the score.
