Does physio actually help back pain, knee pain and sports injuries?
Most people come to us with back pain, knee pain or a sports injury that has been hanging around, flaring up, or stopping them from training, working or moving properly.
NHS guidance recommends physiotherapy as a first-line treatment for most muscle, joint and back pain problems, ahead of long-term painkillers or surgery.
We help with:
- Back Pain & Sciatica (disc, nerve and spinal pain)
- Post-Op Physio (recovering from surgery, returning safely to work or sport)
- Knee & Running Injuries
- Neck & Shoulder Pain (desk and posture-related)
- Running Gym & Training Injuries
- Muscle Tightness & Gym Recovery
Trusted by London desk workers, runners, gym-goers and athletes — including many people who had already “tried physio” without results.
Helping people get back to work, training and life without pain — every day.

London physiotherapy clinic FAQs
Will physiotherapy actually help my problem?
Yes — physiotherapy is research-backed and widely used for muscle, joint and nerve pain, including back pain, sciatica, neck pain, sports injuries and post-operative rehabilitation.
At One Body LDN, this is private physio, not NHS. That means more time, more hands-on treatment, and a plan built around your body and goals.
Our physiotherapists combine deep, effective hands-on treatment with expert rehab. We do not just give out exercise sheets — we treat the problem properly and explain what to do next.
What conditions do your London physiotherapists treat?
Our London physios treat everyday pain, sports injuries, complex cases and post-operative rehabilitation, including back pain and sciatica, neck and shoulder pain, knee and running injuries, gym injuries, and ongoing muscle stiffness and tightness.
All our physiotherapists are HCPC-registered, highly experienced, and trained to One Body LDN’s internal clinical standards. Our team comes from NHS and elite sport backgrounds, including work with high-level athletes.
What happens in a private physiotherapy session? Will it hurt? Is it safe?
Physiotherapy sessions are safe, professional and hands-on, combining a proper assessment with hands-on treatment (massage, manual therapy and joint work) and clear rehab advice.
Our deep massage treatments can provide the deep “good pain” our clients love, but treatment is always controlled, explained and within your limits.
We don’t do hands-off physio. You won’t be left alone with an exercise sheet. You’ll leave knowing what’s wrong, why it happened, and what to do next.
How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?
Most patients with a recent or acute issue need 2–4+ sessions, while long-standing or complex issues typically require 4–8+ sessions.
We only recommend what you genuinely need — no sales tactics, full transparency. We also offer discounts exclusively in the clinic to support faster recovery. The faster you recover, the fewer sessions you need, and the less you spend.
Do you accept AXA, Bupa and other private health insurance at your London clinic?
Yes — we accept all major UK and international private health insurers, including AXA, Bupa, Vitality, Cigna Global, WPA, Healix, Bupa Global and many more.
We’re also recognised by major cashback schemes, including Simplyhealth and Medicash so that you can claim back eligible treatment costs directly through your provider.
We’re the only physiotherapy clinic to offer a step-by-step insurance portal to make claiming easy. You can book online in under 60 seconds — no phone calls or deposits needed.
How much does physiotherapy cost in London?
Your first visit can start with a free assessment (booking fee £4.99), or you can take advantage of our new client offers of over 50% off a full 55-minute treatment session — current pricing is shown on our booking page.
We’re competitively priced for a private London physiotherapy clinic, while delivering an award-winning standard of care. Costs are always clear upfront — no wasted sessions, no hidden fees, no pressure or upsells.
We also offer in-clinic discounts when you book your next session with your therapist in person. This promotes consistency in treatment and helps you return to full health as quickly and cost-effectively as possible.
How quickly can I book physiotherapy in London?
Most patients can book a physiotherapy appointment in London quickly, with same-day and same-week appointments often available.
Booking online takes under 60 seconds, making it easy to find a time that works around your day.
Do I need a GP referral to see a physiotherapist in London?
No — in most cases, you can book directly without a GP referral. This is called direct access physiotherapy, and it means you can be seen the same week, without waiting for a GP appointment first. If you are using health insurance, some policies require a referral — we’ll guide you through this when you book.
Who uses your London physiotherapy services?
Our London physiotherapists help a wide mix of people — from City professionals and desk workers to runners, gym-goers, and those recovering from surgery or a sports injury.
London has one of the longest average commutes in the country. According to TfL data, Londoners spend an average of 80.6 minutes per day travelling to and from work — significantly above the UK average of 58.8 minutes. That daily physical strain, combined with hours at a desk, is one of the biggest drivers of the neck, back and shoulder pain we treat every day.
Over 51% of UK office workers report experiencing back pain at their workstation, and a published study in the European Spine Journal found a 12-month prevalence of neck pain among office workers of 45.5%.
London is also one of the most active cities in the world. A record 578,000 people entered the ballot for the 2024 London Marathon alone — and with over 15.6 million gym memberships across the UK in 2024, a significant proportion of our patients are runners, gym-goers and people training for events who pick up injuries in the process.
Whether you commute across the city, train regularly, or are managing a longer-term condition, our London physiotherapy clinics give you fast access to private treatment near work or home — with a clear diagnosis and treatment plan from your very first session.
Where do people visit your London physio clinics from?
One Body LDN has multiple physiotherapy clinics across London, located within a short walk of major stations and transport hubs — making it straightforward to fit an appointment around your working day, lunch break or commute.
We regularly treat patients who travel from across the capital, including:
- Central London and the City of London’s financial and professional services workers, with long desk hours and high-stress schedules
- East London’s tech and creative workforce
- West End workers, private clients and executives
- South London residents, runners and gym-goers
- North London workers and commuters
Many of our patients book the clinic closest to their office for lunchtime or after-work appointments, then switch to their local clinic at weekends. With many locations and growing, you are never far from an appointment.
Who are your London physiotherapists?
All physiotherapists at One Body LDN are university-qualified, HCPC-registered and members of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP).
Every clinician completes a structured internal onboarding process and is assessed against our clinical standards before treating patients independently. This maintains consistent treatment across all One Body LDN clinics.
Our London physiotherapists treat a wide range of conditions, including back, neck and shoulder pain; sports injuries; knee problems; and post-operative rehabilitation.

What is physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a science-based approach to reducing pain, improving movement and helping people recover from injury, and is recommended by NICE and the NHS as a first-line treatment for many muscle, joint and nerve problems. A physiotherapist assesses how your body is moving, identifies what may be driving the problem, and builds a treatment plan to help you improve.
At One Body LDN, our private physiotherapy combines hands-on treatment, movement assessment, practical advice and rehab planning. The goal is not just to relieve symptoms for a day or two, but to help you move with more confidence and reduce the chance of the problem returning.
Private physiotherapy is the best option if you want faster access, more flexibility around appointments, and a clear treatment plan without long waits.
What happens during a physiotherapy session?

Your physiotherapist takes a full history of your pain or injury — when it started, what makes it worse, what you've already tried. They assess your movement, strength and posture
Hands-on Treatment

Clear Diagnosis
We explain what we think is going on in plain English, what is contributing to it, and what needs to happen next.
