My brother and I engaged Talia to assist with our elderly mother after a lengthy period of illness and hospitalisation led to severe loss of mobility and numerous falls. At our very first meeting it was clear Talia was highly professional with a wide ranging knowledge and experience of how best to assist, not just with the physiotherapy and exercises, but also with ways of alleviating the issues such as rearranging parts of my mother’s flat to help her as wells as equipment and ideas. Over a period of several months we found Talia to be thoroughly reliable, highly skilled and knowledgeable but also kind, caring and extremely good at what she does. She is a treasure and I would recommend her without hesitation.

My mother had a stroke a few years ago and is now bed-bound. While she was waiting for the NHS physiotherapist to see her, I employed Talia for approximately for 7 months. Talia was extremely thorough during the initial assessment and took the time to listen to my mother's problem. She explained things very well and used 'hands on' treatment and gave a set of exercises with sensible instructions. Talia also taught my dad on some of the exercises so he could perform these on my mother too which he finds very useful at present.

Talia's simple but effective strategy is to work with her patients, by understanding their objectives and designing the most effective physiotherapy programmes to achieve patient satisfaction.

For any patient that is prepared to put in the effort and demonstrate strong discipline in adhering strictly to Talia's tailored made programs, the rewards can be significant.

I cannot recommend Talia strongly enough for any patient who is prepared to work in tandem with Talia's strong desire to help her patients achieve the best possible results.

Booking Talia for physiotherapy was a really good decision on my part. I’d been suffering for over four months with a frozen shoulder and bursitis. I hadn’t been sleeping because of the pain and most normal activities felt like torture. I had been waiting months for an appointment on the NHS and I was getting rather desperate. It was such a relief when I rang Talia and she could see me within a day or two. From the start, Talia made a difference, giving me advice, encouragement, massage, ultrasound and exercises. She is very caring, knowledgeable and thorough, minutely measuring my progress from one visit to the next. Talia always arrived on time but never left before she’d answered all my questions! In the course of six visits over about ten weeks, my range of movement increased a lot and my pain lessened considerably. I’d happily recommend her to anyone needing a physiotherapist.

I employed the services of On The Go Physio for my wife after she was discharged from a long stay in hospital following cancer treatment. Talia is a delightful young lady, very professional and caring. She did a thorough assessment and set exercises to suit my wife’s ability. I would absolutely recommend her services.

I am so much better today. Thank you. You have done wonders.
