"Nicki is an excellent sports therapist. I have suffered some quite bad injuries over the past year, severe crepitus in my forearms and hands from canoeing over 100 miles from Devizes to Westminster and more recently sciatica – a trapped nerve. Her comprehensive knowledge and friendly approach has ensured I’ve had the right treatment and been given the professional advice needed to aid the healing process and alleviate the pain.
Whether your injury is minor or serious I would strongly recommend a visit to Nicki."
