The Pure Practice

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable physio and efficient admin. Easy to find in city centre with big car park nearby.

Fantastic experience: I visited due to acute sciatic pain for almost two months and had an incredible treatment session with Sonja, perhaps the best treatment I have ever had with anyone at any time. Not only do I feel much better, but I feel confident in a full recovery. Highest possible marks.

Fantastic experience: I have seen Rachel several times. She has been consistently excellent at identifying the source of my problems as well as providing effective exercises to speedily improve matters. I highly recommend her

Fantastic experience: Could not recommend Sonja enough. She listens to your concerns and does a detailed assessment before giving you a plan and structure to help you move forward !

Fantastic experience: Rachel was absolutely fantastic in the one session I had. She was very attentive and knowledgeable and helped quickly diagnose my issue and gave me an exercise plan that allowed me to complete an 8 day hike pain free only two weeks later, which I initially thought would be impossible.

Fantastic experience: Thorough and incisive diagnosis with great advice and a plan for dealing with my running injury

Fantastic experience: Lovely practice- well equipped and great knowledge and skills in the team. Would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Love these guys, Rachel has been exceptionally helpful in assisting in rehabilitating an ACL injury post-surgery!

Fantastic experience: Expert thorough assessment and really helpful rehabilitation plan. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: My first appointment with Sonja was very thorough and explored every aspect to my injury. I was provided with a comprehensive rehab plan and the support needed to improve my sports injury. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Impressive in every way. Thoughtful, practical and effective immediate and long term advice.

Fantastic experience: Couldn't recommend enough, Rachel was fantastic giving me a complete understanding of my injury and a full programme for rehab.

Fantastic experience: All good from the moment I met Rachel for the first time. She explained everything very well, and I came out feeling so more confident than when I went in.

Fantastic experience: A really good Phsiotherapy practice. High care factor, great facilities and really smart people. Rachel was really helpful with my injured knee. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Love Lydia's reformer 1 to 1 class very much! So far the best reformer in town and very helpful instructions on the spot I want to target.

Fantastic experience: My first session has resulted in nothing short of a miracle. My knee would not fully bend or straighten after an accident last year. I'd been to see two specialists and other practitioners at a hospital who were fairly apathetic about my lack of recovery progress, and will remain nameless. In contrast, Sonja, who I will name, listened and was encouraging in her responses and most importantly has gotten my knee to almost straighten and bend more than it has in nine months. I could not be more grateful.

Negative experience: The session itself was fine. However, more than 3 weeks later still not been sent the promised programme of exercises, despite several follow up calls. Disappointing.

Fantastic experience: Very professional and nice work environment vibe. Thanks for the care and advice.

Fantastic experience: Friendly and professional service at Pure Practice. My treatment was excellent and I would definitely recommend them to others.

Fantastic experience: Excellent

Fantastic experience: Sonja is great. She gives excellent care and advise in a straightforward but very friendly way. I would recommend her physiotherapy to anyone.

Fantastic experience: Very knowledgeable, and thorough in assessing me. Practical solutions and great follow up.

Fantastic experience: I had my second appointment with Sonja Bass at The Pure Practice today and was again impressed by her ability to quickly assess which exercises to 'prescribe' and the short massage/pummeling that enabled me to walk home in less pain than I arrived! All of this was delivered with friendly conversation and a smile. Thank you, Sonja!

Fantastic experience: really pleased with the appointment, does help a lot on my knee problem

Fantastic experience: FRIENDLY, FORMIDABLY KNOWLEGABLE STAFF, WOULD DEFINITELY RECCOMMEND

Fantastic experience: Physio treatment by lovely people going very well - highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Friendly and professional welcome and thorough examination and treatment

Fantastic experience: Super friendly, professional and expert treatment from Rachael

Fantastic experience: I had a great consultation with Rachel, she was exceptionally helpful, honest and cheerful. Would recommend to anyone who needs a professional insight

Fantastic experience: Very reassuring to have such a thorough, knowledgable and clear physio as Rachael who has helped me hugely with shoulder and lower back issues.

Fantastic experience: If you have aches and pains, Pure Practice is where you should go! You always receive a warm and friendly welcome, I see Sonja Bass who is excellent. Not only she sorts you out, with a calm and confident manner, but we also have a laugh along the way. I walk out much brighter and in far less discomfort. Highly recommend for a physio session and tips for good health!

Fantastic experience: I have used Pure practice for both physio with Sonja and Rachael but also sport massage with Amy since 2019. Physio appointments have been bang on the money of diagnosis when having an injury but also given exercises online to continue to do at home or gym. Amy massages are amazing and the right level of pressure especially for someone who trains a lot at CrossFit. All in all amazing team!

Fantastic experience: Having struggled with my fitness after 2 back operations, I started to go to The Pure Practise where Rachael Whitehouse gave Pilates classes. At first on a one to one basis and then I progressed to a weekly class. All during the first Lockdown, Rachael carried on with Zoom classes. Now that we are back face to face I am continuing to get stronger and will keep going for as long as I can. I can honestly say that, at nearly 80 years old, I have not felt so fit for a very long time!

Fantastic experience: Really enjoy coming to the Pure Practice for Pilates with Rachael. She’s a great teacher, makes everyone feel so welcome and always explains the exercises so well. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending.

Fantastic experience: Sonja and Rachel have been amazing at diagnosing and treating my hamstring tear and gluteal tendinopathy. I highly recommend them. On top of their knowledge, they're incredibly understanding and patient. The whole team are fab! I also like the fact that they have different experts on site to see you through the whole rehab process. The reformer pilates has really helped me.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend the service I received at The Pure Practice. Rachael is fantastic offering plenty of new ideas and exercises to use and get back to full fitness as quickly as possible. It is also really easy for students to receive discounted appointments and support from sports teams as well. Please, do go and check them out!

Fantastic experience: I have been attending The Pure Practice for over 10 years now and can highly recommend. There is no need to put up with niggles or suffer too long with injuries if you see Sonya or Rachael. A pragmatic and holistic approach to physio rehab so you can get back to doing what you love/need to do as quickly as possible. Their aim is resolve your issues in the best way possible so you don't need to see them. A refreshing and positive experience.

Fantastic experience: Great physiotherapy practice. Having been lucky and only ended up with niggles rather than pain over my years of over enthusiastic clumsiness, Rachel took the time to find the root causes of my ailments and together we have a program that is: a) working b)achievable I really appreciate the extra time they took particularly during the pandemic - when people invest in to you it acts as a great motivator to "do physiotherapy" rather than just go to one!

Fantastic experience: I’ve had 2 appointment. Very professional very friendly and starting to feel the benefits. I wouldn’t hesitate to go back if needed Definitely recommend

Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic service.
