Olivia has patiently and expertly worked on the inflammation and muscular pain in my lower back. I’m now on the road to recovery thanks to her help.

★★★★★★★★★★Ece CakirFeb 2026

I started seeing Olivia a couple of months ago after pulling my back and she helped me recover so much. Her treatment approach is excellent and she has a lovely manner that makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. Highly recommend.

★★★★★★★★★★Louise McLennanJan 2026

I came to Olivia as I was struggling with my jaw locking in the mornings due to TMJ issues. She was immediately friendly and welcoming, and after one session (plus doing the recommended exercises) I saw very quick improvement with the problem. I'd recommend Olivia to anyone.

I have been seeing Olivia with a knee issue. Olivia has been excellent, diagnosing the issue and helping me resolve things. Very knowledgeable and clearly explained everything to me. I would certainly recommend. Thank you for all your help here. Alison H

★★★★★★★★★★Sue F.Nov 2025

Olivia was exceptional – she made me feel instantly at ease with her calm, confident approach and clear expertise. After struggling to even move when I arrived, the improvement by the time I left was nothing short of amazing. The entire session was delivered with professionalism, care and a genuine desire to help. Every step was explained, the treatment was targeted and effective, and the results spoke for themselves. Olivia is a credit to her profession – skilled, attentive, kind and clearly passionate about what she does. I can’t thank her enough and would 100% recommend her to anyone needing high-quality physiotherapy.

Have visited Olivia over a number of years for a number of different issues and she has always been amazing. Very hands-on and knowledgeable and I have been fortunate enough to have my problems resolved quickly. Highly recommend.

★★★★★★★★★★Jaroslaw RzepeckiJun 2025

Great physio-therapist! Olivia helped me recover quickly and effectively from a hip flexor issue, and later guided me through a knee injury with the same professionalism and care. Every session was thoughtful, tailored to my needs, and really helped me get back to full strength. Thank you for the fantastic support and expert treatment!

★★★★★★★★★★H FApr 2025

Olivia is fantastic! She treated me for a pulled adductor muscle and I felt such a difference after just the first session. She gave me lots of advice and stretches to do between sessions and also helped me with a persistent knot in my shoulder. She’s extremely knowledgeable and skilled.

★★★★★★★★★★Evelina GalacziJan 2025

I started going to Olivia two months ago, after trying several other physio therapists. She is great! Very experienced, gives really good advice, the manipulations of the injured areas make a big difference and the exercises she gives are all very manageable to fit around busy lives. I highly recommend her!

★★★★★★★★★★Natasha SabbahJan 2023

Olivia has been treating me since early 2020. She is absolutely outstanding: the *very best* physiotherapist I have ever had. I had a serious back injury in early 2022, and Olivia came into her practice to treat me on her day off: if it wasn’t for her exceptional care and expertise, my injury would have manifested into something quite sinister. I still see Olivia every 3 months now, for an MOT, and to keep my back nice and mobile. It’s always so lovely to see her too, as, on a personal level, she is an *amazing person*: very kind, caring, and with great empathy. If you are reading this, and you live in Cambridge, or are near the area, and want a recommendation for a top/outstanding/consummate professional physiotherapist, please contact Olivia! You don’t just get a treatment from her: I come away with a sound understanding of physio, superb aftercare, and knowledge of herbal medicine, of which Olivia has a great understanding. Olivia has treated leading sports professionals for many, many years, and she also teaches at top-tier Universities around the UK, and is highly sought after for her great intelligence in her field. I consider myself especially fortunate to have found her, and you will do too.
