No. You can book an appointment directly without seeing your GP first. If I feel you would benefit from further medical assessment, I will discuss this with you and advise you accordingly.

Your initial appointment includes a detailed discussion about your symptoms, medical history, lifestyle and goals, followed by a physical assessment. I will explain my findings, discuss the likely cause of your symptoms, and work with you to develop an individual treatment plan.

Initial appointments are 60 minutes. Follow-up appointments are either 40 or 60 minutes, depending on your clinical needs, allowing plenty of time for assessment, treatment, advice and rehabilitation.

For your physical assessment, please wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely, such as a t-shirt, shorts, or other suitable clothing. Even if you are attending for a specific issue (for example, a knee problem), your physiotherapist may need to assess other areas such as your hip or lower back to understand the full picture and guide your care.

Payment is requested in advance of your appointment and can be made when booking or via a secure payment link sent to you by email.

If you would rather pay at your appointment, I am happy for you to pay by secure card payment, cash or cheque.

Yes, I usually work with you to devise a suitable home exercise plan. Exercise is often an important part of recovery and rehabilitation. Where appropriate, you will receive a personalised exercise programme with clear instructions to help you continue your progress between appointments. I use Physitrack, an exercise prescription platform that provides videos and guidance to help you perform your exercises correctly and confidently at home.

This varies depending on your condition, your goals, how long the problem has been present, and how you respond to treatment. Some people improve after one or two sessions, while others benefit from a longer course of rehabilitation.

Physiotherapy is a process of understanding your symptoms, starting an appropriate treatment plan, and adapting this over time based on how your body responds. We will review your progress together and agree the next steps, whether that involves progressing exercises, modifying your plan, or continuing treatment.

Home visits may be available within Beverley and nearby for patients who are unable to attend the clinic because of mobility or accessibility needs. Please get in touch before booking so we can discuss whether a home visit is appropriate.

Restore Physiotherapy provides assessment and treatment for adults aged 18 and over. I specialise in adult musculoskeletal physiotherapy and do not offer physiotherapy services for children or young people.

If you wish to use private medical insurance, please contact me before booking. I am happy to provide the information required for you to check eligibility with your insurer. Please note that reimbursement depends on your individual policy and insurer requirements.

No parking is available at the clinic. However, up to 3 hours free parking is available at the Tesco store nearby, for both customers and non-customers. Please see further details on the Find Us page.

If you need to cancel or rearrange your appointment, please let me know as soon as possible. There is no cancellation charge when at least 24 hours’ notice is given, and if you have already paid, a full refund will be provided. If you need to reschedule, I’ll always do my best to find an alternative appointment that works for you.

Appointments can be booked online or by getting in touch via phone or email. If you're unsure whether physiotherapy is right for you, please feel free to contact me before booking.

Where appropriate, treatment may include manual therapy alongside exercise rehabilitation, education and advice. Treatment choices are guided by the best available evidence, your assessment findings and your individual circumstances.
