Physiotherapy Testimonials

“In March 2024, I ruptured my right Achilles while playing football. I was taken straight to A&E where I was told it was a sprain, given paracetamol, and sent home. Two days later I saw my GP, who diagnosed ligament damage and referred me to Lisa Mann at the Jersey Sports and Spinal Clinic. When I saw Lisa a week later, it took her less than a minute to correctly diagnose a ruptured Achilles. She immediately wrote a letter and sent me straight back to hospital to be put into a hard cast. The hospital decided surgery wasn’t necessary at the time and instead placed me in a boot until July. Unfortunately, just two weeks after coming out of the boot, my Achilles ruptured again while I was out with friends. This time I required surgery and was put back into the boot until my Achilles had healed enough to begin physiotherapy with Lisa in November. At that point, I was walking with a limp, couldn’t run or jump, and genuinely thought I might never return to sport or even walk properly without pain again. Lisa reassured me that I would get back to playing sports — and even stronger than before my injury. After 12 months of working with Lisa, I can honestly say I’m in better physical shape at 42 than I was at 32. I’m back playing football, running, boxing four days a week, walking the cliff paths, and feeling stronger and leaner than ever. When I first started physio, I couldn’t even stand on my tiptoes. Now I’m more active than I ever imagined possible. Lisa not only rebuilt the muscles in my Achilles, calf, and right side, but also improved the stability and strength on my left side too. I genuinely couldn’t have done this without Lisa. Her care, expertise, and encouragement were outstanding throughout my recovery. A massive thank you to Lisa and everyone at the Jersey Sports and Spinal Clinic — she kept her word and got me back playing sports, stronger and fitter than before my injury.”

“I just wanted to give a shout out to Lisa Mann of the Jersey Sports & Spinal Clinic. I had some issues resulting from my hypermobility and over a few months not only have the issues resolved but we discussed things going forward for prevention. She not only shared her knowledge, but she is compassionate and actually hears what you have to say. I would totally recommend her if you are having any hypermobility issues. “

“On Friday 10 February I arrived at your clinic in need of support as I had substantial pain in my lumber region caused by lifting my suitcase clumsily. I was holidaying on Jersey, staying in St Helier. You very kindly gave me advice/direction on how to ease my discomfort to allow me to continue with my holiday. I’m a regular Pilates attendee yet I wasn’t confident I was doing the right stretches to help me on my way. I felt relieved speaking to you and left safe in the knowledge you departed. I bought the hot water bottle you suggested, paracetamols and eased my pain regularly with the stretches you said to concentrate on. Many thanks for being so kind and generous.”
— Heather, Aberdeen, Scotland

“I have come a long way since I first came to you at the beginning of the year, and would like you to know how thankful I am for all your support, reassurance and professionalism. It has been a difficult journey! My rehab with you, has been well explained, and clearly structured, and this I believe accounts for the progress I have made since surgery. I am enjoying the Pilates, and am keeping it up!
Many Thanks once again, please pass on my comments to your fantastic team”
— Claire Dawes

“ ..from limping, to walking/running and then full running inside of 12 months, when I wouldn’t have given that a chance of happening. 2 years after seeing Kyle, I ran a marathon. I would  never have believed that could have happened. Thanks to Kyle, I am enjoying my running more than ever and will be regular disciple of his S&C sessions to reduce the risk  of future injuries and to keep running!”

“brilliant staff who are completely focussed on the clients needs. I felt like it was individualised treatment from each of the professionals I worked with. I cant recommend the team highly enough”

“..my back is feeling pain-free [..] pass on my thanks to Abi.

She was extremely informative and approachable & I cannot believe the difference in my back!”

“I went to the clinic for an issue with my neck and was not expecting much since I thought my problem was quite trivial. But Edward Walsh not only helped with my neck, but also came up with a treatment plan for an issue with my right shoulder that I had not even realised was causing me problems. I can now swim better than before and my range of movement has greatly increased.

I was so worth a go!”

“Thank you for all your help over the years, but specially Kyle for all his hard work, and patience with me, in the last couple of years.  Kyle’s work has been impeccable and no doubt one of the reasons I have managed to complete all my recent ultra marathons in very good times and continue my record of not having a single DNF yet!

I know I don’t often thank people enough, but your help is, has been and will no doubt continue to be really appreciated.

Thank you very much!

“When I started your S&C for Runners, I was given an assessment.  During the assessment, I was asked what my race goals were. At the time, I said I don’t have any race goals other than building to run on the cliffs. My goals were fairly easy defined:-

  1. Run 5 miles on cliffs
  2. Run 10 miles on cliffs
  3. Run 20 then 30 miles on cliffs

All without getting broken, when I say run, I’m talking about slow plod that most may not call a Run, still it’s a goal.

Since May, I’ve got stronger and done more plods, with last weekend a 9.5 mile plod from Battery Moltike, so a beautiful plod.

So Tuesday I woke up to the fact that the Island walk was on this Saturday, so signed up knowing it was going to be both a physical and mental challenge.

 I’ve run around Jersey in the past in 12 hours, so my goal was just to finish and still be able to walk during the week.

Well, 17 hrs 45 mins was the time, such a beautiful hot day.   A slow plod but most enjoyable.

So thank you team, you are achieving goals with people like me, and whilst I’ll never be fast or getting my hands on the silverware I’ve got my love of being on the trails back.

Oh, and to cap it off, I’ve entered Wendover woods 50 mile ultra for mid-November, a rather challenging course 😀

Keep up the great work, it does genuinely make a huge difference”
