I have suffered severe back and rib pain due to an accident at work, and for 5 weeks nothing could get rid of the pain. After 3 hospital visits and doctor visits, I was recommended to go to The Physio Lounge at The David Lloyd’s Club in Warrington where I met with Brogan. She talked me through my injury, investigated my pain locations and stimulated my pain in the most painful areas and around the damaged areas. She introduced me to exercises that would help my muscles gently, and we went through them together to make sure I was doing them correctly. I visited on Thursday 19th December and today, 22nd November I am completely pain free. It’s a miracle what Brogan has done for me and I can’t fault her or The Physio Lounge for getting me in after work and for treating me so amazingly. 5 weeks of agony and painkillers that do nothing, I am now able to enjoy Christmas pain free. Thank you so so much!! More...

On my first visit to Craig nearly a year ago he quickly came to believe my condition was caused by a stenosis - which would need surgery. He immediately wrote to my GP asking for an MRI to be organised. Following this I was referred to the Walton Centre and my operation has been a huge success. I am convinced that Craig's intervention speeded up the whole process and I will always be grateful to him for this. He has now provided me with a course of followup exercises and gym activities to further my recovery. Unreserved recommendation from a pain free client! More...

I have struggled with an ongoing shoulder issue for a number of years which has resulted in me seeing various different physios and all giving various diagnosis as to what the problem could be. After having an initial consultation with Sam, he spotted the issue within ten minutes which has resulted in surgery and ongoing rehab. Sam's approach has been second to none. He puts me at ease straight away and his diligent approach to rehab has been nothing short of fantastic. I cannot recommend Sam enough and wouldn't look to go anywhere else.Thank you for all of your hard work Sam! More...

It was the second time his knee had been injured however this was the first time we had used The Physio Lounge . Paul explained everything so well and made us feel relieved giving a clear plan for rehab. The Physio Lounge’s service and expertise is second to none! Paul has provided various exercise plans through his treatment and a clear direction for recovery. He planned follow up appointments assessing him thoroughly at each stage to ensure a full recovery before playing football again. We couldn’t be happier with the guidance and support that The Physio Lounge have provided. Their care and consideration for their patients is very professional - highly recommended as THE best Physiotherapy service available. Thank you so much! More...

I get regular treatment at the Physio Lounge for a tricky hip adductor issue and can't recommend the guys highly enough. Sam & Craig both have years of experience working with professional athletes. They bring all of that knowledge to my rehab, even though I'm just a regular guy who likes to play sport. Their understanding of complex muscle groups, attention to detail, and application of evidence-based movement & strength traning is above and beyond other clinics I've tried in Manchester. More...

I had postural vertigo, dizziness when I moved my head in a particular way. The GP diagnosed it and gave me anti sickness meds to treat the symptoms but no hint that that there was a cure! !. I am so pleased I looked up vestibular physios (a friend mentioned their existence) and found the physio lounge. In a visit of less than 45 mins I was fixed as they treated me with a small but expert series of movements of the head. Vertigo gone!. Thanks Craig, can’t recommend you highly enough! More...

I've been attending the Physio Lounge for a few months due to a pain in my shoulder, which was also affecting the movement in my arm. The treatment was taken at a slow pace to assess how I would cope and awaiting results of an MRI scan. This worked perfectly for me, as some of the pain started to diminish after a few week, however, I was encouraged not to over do things. Once the results of the MRI scan had been received, the treatments was adjusted accordingly and the results have been great. Although I'm not completely pain free yet, it is so much better thanks to Sam, his patience, advice and treatment! Lesley More...

The Physio Lounge are a very knowledgeable group of dedicated sports physio's. In the space of 3 sessions, they've already increased my flexibility and muscle spasms hugely. Even though they were pretty booked up, they still managed to find the time to treat me. I've seen quite a few physio's over the years, so I'm good at recognising those who know their stuff - so Craig & Sam really do! I can't recommend their knowledge enough and I am hoping to return to my skydiving very soon. More...

For the past 5 years I've been suffering from ongoing hip pain (sometimes unbearable). Over these years, I've visited & extensively worked with numerous physiotherapists & in all cases my pain/symptoms was misdiagnosed as muscular damage. Therefore my treatment & exercises were predominantly based around the strengthening of the muscles around my hips. I recently moved to Manchester & due to severe hip pain whilst running, It was recommended to me to go & visit The Physio Lounge. It quickly became apparent (after only 4 sessions) to Mark (one of the physiotherapists @ The Physio Lounge) that my pain was highly unlikely to be muscular damage but possible impingement of the ball & socket (bone), cartilage damage etc. Mark promptly referred me to a hip specialist which an MRI confirmed his findings & I underwent keyhole surgery soon thereafter. Marks initial diagnosis was truly exceptional & life changing for me even more so after just 4 sessions of working with him. I'm highly impressed with Marks experience, knowledge & his treatment. He is a fantastic physiotherapist. Post op I've also had the pleasure to work with Craig (another physiotherapist @ The Physio Lounge) on my rehabilitation. The experience & knowledge Craig possesses is excellent & fascinating. Craig will often take the time out to explain the reasoning to me around why & what treatment & exercises we're doing to make me understand the bigger picture. This is a great asset to have for Craig & its invaluable for my understanding & personal knowledge. Another fantastic physiotherapist. In essence, every time I attend The Physio Lounge, I always receive a warm welcome & excellent customer service from the receptionists & all of the staff. Also the knowledge, experience, the treatment, positivity, care & due diligence I receive from both Mark & Craig makes The Physio Lounge the best Physiotherapy company I've been to. There's a great feel good factor & a positive vibe around this place. I highly recommend this company to anyone & I genuinely look forward to the rest of my rehabilitation @ The Physio Lounge.

Booked my first sports massage in years on a recommendation from a friend on Twitter and it didn't dissapoint. Ashleigh, though slight, must have been hiding forearms like Popeye under her uniform. She was more than able to beat the tension out of my calves and shoulders leaving me feeling great.  She was also very good at allowing the conversation to ebb and flow, as some of the calf work was pretty tender and I didn't feel too chatty. The venue was easy to find, and was very comforting, the treatment room especially was lovely and warm (convenient when you are stripping down to your skivvies).It thought it was slightly on the expensive side for a sports massage when I booked, but in retrospect, it's perfectly priced, well worth the extra pennies.

To be brief..the place is very comforting..the staff friendly..and Craig is the cream of the crop of the business..I've been to over 10 physiotherapists acupuncturists chiropractors. .and they didn't make me feel the way Craig did..what he provided was knowledge of what my problem was and how to fix it..I was very Impressed by the fact that he knew exactly which pressure points to focus on and found my problem areas from his first go..rather than fiddling around..this showed me a great deal of experience..on top of this he was giving me a quick lesson on how each part of my body that was problamatic moved and functioned so that I would have a better understanding of how to do the home excersise and relief excersises that he recommended. I usually don't feel as good as I do after one session but because he knew what he was doing my result was better achieved. I highly recommend him for physical therapy. I will be going again and I will be trying their other services. More...

Can't say enough good things about this place. What really sets it apart from other places I've been is the on site gym. It allows the therapists to directly target gym form issues which are often the source of pain and discomfort in the body. They have vast experience in working with different types of athletes which provides a very solid base to work from. Another difference in this clinic is that they aim, where possible, to teach you to look after yourself so that you don't become dependant on having treatments. This further exemplifies the focus on patient well being over any other agenda. Would highly recommend this clinic to anyone. More...

Services

Sports massage is the term applied to the discipline of using massage for the specific benefit of all sports and exercise participants. It is the vigorous manipulation of the soft tissues in the body for the athlete or active individual.

All therapists here at The Physio Lounge are qualified physiotherapists and have experience working in sport at the highest level and are more than capable of meeting your requirements. Sports massage is often used in conjunction with Sports Rehabilitation and Sports Screening to optimise the effect.

Whether you are an amateur or recreational athlete, weekend warrior, or simply the 21st century office worker with back pain, everyone should have access to the same high quality services. This philosophy was conceived through the extensive background of both directors working in professional sport at St Helens RFC, Millwall FC, Preston North End FC and England Knights RL.

Our therapists will be there every step of the way, whether you are training for a marathon, or recovering from an episode of joint pain. It is our passion to achieve this together through:

- Detailed examination
- Accurate diagnosis
- Innovative multidisciplinary approach
- Individualised, hands-on treatment
