Everything hurts / nothing hurts

Nell goes the extra mile for her patients. She shows great attention to detail and her huge wealth of experience allows her to tailor treatment to her patients' specific individual needs. She has the skill of distilling complex clinical treatment situations into comprehensive holistic rehabilitation programmes. It takes years of skill to critically evaluate abnormal movement patterns and mal-coordination of the musculoskeletal system. It takes even more skill to understand how to treat them. Nell Mead is exactly that sort of physio. She cares deeply about her patients and is extremely thorough in her assessment. She develops very detailed and individual treatment protocols. She goes to great lengths to keep me informed of the progress of our patients and this shared collaborative approach has proven to be very reassuring and effective and has produced some excellent results. Nell often succeeds where previous non-surgical treatments have failed, but she also knows when the time is right for surgery, and she is with her patients through every step of the journey from initial consultation to final post-operative discharge. I have no trouble at all in recommending Nell and I know that my patients are safe in her hands.'

Nell Mead is my go-to person for patients who’ve not been making progress with other physios or osteos. Sometimes we meet patients who are understandably ‘jaded’ and feel like giving up on rehab. They may tell me that they’ve ‘done physio, and it doesn’t work’, and I tell them, ‘until you’ve seen Nell Mead, you’ve not done physio!’ She is amazing, and she quickly gets the actual cause of the patient’s problem, which may be issues elsewhere that are generating overload and pain. It helps patients to get better for the long-term, and she helps them achieve this rapidly. If you’re in pain, or you’re looking after someone who is pain, I recommend Nell unreservedly.
