back pain

Suffering from back pain?

This includes muscular aches, sciatica, disc bulge or pain referred into the arms and legs. Symptoms may also include tingling, numbness or weakness.

Thankfully, most back pain has a mechanical element to it.  We can help you modify your daily stresses and strains so that you can be more comfortable in the work place and at sport.

When problems are more structural, such as disc prolapse, education on avoidance of the “wrong thing” is as important as anything else.  If problems don’t settle, we have experts in the field to refer you to and get you sorted.

testimonials

Arturo helped me recover from meniscus knee surgery. 4 months after the surgery I was able to compete in the London Triathlon and improve upon my time by over 10 minutes. Without his guidance and support I may not have even made it to the starting line. Thanks for your hard work!
I have worked with Arturo, undertaking research with him at Brunel University, where Arturo is a Physiotherapy Lecturer. I have every confidence in Arturo, both academically and professionally
Arturo is a highly skilled physio whose expert knowledge is well beyond standard. Indeed Arturo would be my first port of call for advice on any muscular / skeletal issue - his treatment regimes are always effective in my experience .However if he feels other medical advice / input is necessary he will say so
Arturo Lawson provides a very high quality physiotherapy assessment, treatment and a personalised exercise plan. His clinical skills are further strengthened by his academic expertise and University lecturer appointment.
I have tried a few Physio's over the last 20 years in Sydney and in London and Arturo ranks as the best. He listens, is consultative, personable, explains things well and produces results with expert no nonsense advice.
Arturo is a great physio: knows his stuff, is enthusiastic about his work, explains well his diagnosis and treatment options, and is interesting to talk to while he goes about doing his work on you.
Arturo Lawson is an expert clinician who delivers the highest quality physiotherapy management. He combines extensive clinical experience, with an in-depth knowledge of anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, pathology and the evidence base, to provide effective individualised treatment of musculoskeletal problems and sports injuries.
I would be happy to recommend Arturo who has helped me through a couple of injuries to myself and to my son. Has a good way, wexplains things clearly, doesn't dress it up i.e. tells it as he sees it and is pragmatic.
I cannot recommend Arturo highly enough. As my Physio I would rather not have to see him, but needs must! In which case, I trust his judgement implicitly and always come away from our sessions feeling well informed, motivated and 100% positive. With Arturo I put my aches and pains in the right hands.
Arturo is an experienced and knowledgeable professional in his field. He makes good connections with his clients and his positive approach and attitude adds a lot to the treatment outcomes. He also displays a very pragmatic approach to his treatment plans something that inspires a lot of confidence in him. He is also well respected by my colleagues who also go to him for treatment.
