Posted on D CeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Always had great experiences here - whether long-term physio rehab, addressing something acute or getting a well needed sports massage during marathon training! For me I went as I’m able to claim back on my insurance and the staff are generally all registered physios (and you can tell the difference with the massage!)Posted on Rohail AhmedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent experience at One Body LDN Paddington—the treatment was effective and professionally delivered. A big appreciation to the friendly, supportive team for their care and dedicationPosted on LakeerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The physiotherapy treatments at One Body London Paddington really worked. The improvements were noticeable after my first visit. The staff’s compassion was really impressive, and I felt very supported throughout my treatment.Posted on jhanzaib aliTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. One Body LDN Paddington has a highly skilled team. The treatments are thorough and the staff take the time to explain everything clearly.Posted on Tom BuckleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pooja helped me return to fitness after breaking my arm. She is super friendly and guided me through the whole process, from beginner isometric exercises to gradual weight training. I would definitely recommend!Posted on Krishna MadhwaniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an excellent experience with this physiotherapist Dr Dhanashree. Very knowledgeable, patient, and professional. The treatment was well-explained and tailored to my condition, and I noticed significant improvement in a short time. Highly recommended for anyone looking for effective and caring physiotherapy treatment.Posted on Mamoudou BarryTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pooja at one body is an incredible kind and knowledgeable physiotherapist. I came in with meniscal injury and thanks to her expert care it has improved significantly she explains everything clearly and genuinely cares about her patients I always feel well looked after. Highly recommended Pooja at One body!Posted on T H E L I B B Y H O W A R DTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pooja has been wonderful! I limped in to my first appointment, unable to run, and in lots of pain with my ankle and knee, and Pooja has listened and helped so much. We’ve made lots of progress with exercises, sports massages and dry needling, and I’m so thankful to be running again, and feeling so much better now. My treatment plan has been clear and effective. We’re now building up my strength and flexibility, and I know I’m at the right place to help me get there! I would recommend One Body LDN and especially Pooja to anyone I know. Thanks so much Pooja, it’s fantastic working with you :)Posted on Ben CrabbTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had several sports massages here - Denise is an excellent therapist and i would highly recommend.

How to Use Your Health Insurance
Takes ~10 Minutes in Total
Most of our patients use private health insurance to complete their treatment — allowing them to attend multiple sessions without paying privately.
Option 1
I already have my authorisation code
I already have my authorisation code
Perfect — you’re ready to book.
No payment is taken when booking.
- Book your session online (60 seconds)
- We send you access to our secure Insurance Authorisation Portal
- You complete a short form so we can validate and authorise your sessions
- Attend your appointment — we handle the rest
Please ensure we have your insurance details before you attend your treatment session. If not, the appointment will be self-funded and billed to you.
Option 2
I don’t have my authorisation code yet
I don’t have my authorisation code yet
You can still secure an appointment today.
No payment is taken when booking.
- Book an initial session to secure a time
- After booking, we send you exclusive access to our Insurance Guidance Portal
- The portal walks you through exactly what to do and say when contacting your insurer
- You submit your details so we can authorise your session in advance
Please ensure we have your insurance details before you attend your treatment session. If not, the appointment will be self-funded and billed to you.
Your questions, answered
Can I use my private health insurance here — and am I covered?
Yes. We accept AXA, Bupa, Vitality, Cigna, WPA, and international policies (including Bupa International and Cigna International).
Most corporate and professional roles include private health insurance as a benefit, so many clients are already covered — often without realising it.
Using insurance for physio is the norm, not the exception.
The majority of our patients use PHI to treat back pain, knee injuries, posture-related pain, sports injuries, and ongoing aches.
Will I have to pay anything? Are there hidden or future costs?
Usually, your insurer covers the sessions approved on your policy.
You may need to pay:
- An excess (set by your insurer)
- Any sessions beyond your authorised limit
We are fully transparent and encourage you to check if there is an excess or shortfall on your policy.
Important: if you attend a session without valid authorisation (e.g., your insurance details have not been submitted to us in advance), the session becomes self-funded and payable by you.
Is it complicated to use insurance? Do I need a referral?
No — it’s very straightforward.
You send us your initial details, and we handle the admin.
Unlike most clinics, we provide a step-by-step portal that shows you exactly how to get authorisation and submit codes. It usually takes around 10 minutes.
Most insurers are happy to approve physio, and many policies don’t require a GP referral.
What do I need before my first insurance appointment?
After booking, we’ll send you a short form to complete. We will ask for details about your insurance policy and authorisation.
Please ensure the details are submitted before your treatment session. If this isn’t completed before your session, the appointment will be self-funded and billed to you.
How easy is it to book using insurance? What happens after I book?
Very easy.
- No phone calls
- No deposits
- Book online in under 60 seconds
After booking, you’ll receive access to our insurance portal, guiding you through authorisation step by step.
We have multiple London locations and same-week availability is standard.
How do I claim back with cashback cover?
Cashback works slightly differently:
- You book and pay privately as normal
- After your session, we send you a receipt (not before)
The receipt includes all details needed to claim.
If your insurer needs extra information (e.g., your address), you can submit it via our client hub and request an updated invoice.
Are your physios HCPC registered?
Yes — all our physiotherapists are HCPC registered, which is required for insurance and cashback claims.
Each receipt includes your physio’s HCPC number for easy claiming.

Important information
Our standard private rate is £185 for a 55-minute session.
If your insurance includes a co-pay or has a session price cap, you may prefer to self-fund your appointments and claim back via invoice.
Our self-pay rates are discounted to support our long-standing and returning clients.
Some insurers also pay us a reduced agreed fee based on client volume. These rates are pre-negotiated directly with the insurer.
The length of your appointment is set by your insurer’s approved fee, not by us.
Insurance providers typically do not cover missed or late-cancelled appointments.
If you fail to attend or cancel within 24 hours of the appointment, the session will be charged to you in line with our cancellation policy.
