Will physio actually help me?
That depends on getting the right assessment, treatment and plan.
At One Body LDN, we do not just treat the painful area and hope for the best. Your physio will assess what is driving your symptoms, explain it clearly, use hands-on treatment where appropriate, and give you a rehab plan that fits your body, goals and lifestyle.
Physiotherapy can help with pain, stiffness, injuries, post-op recovery and movement problems across the whole body — not just back or knee pain.
We commonly help with:
- Back pain, sciatica and nerve pain
- Neck, shoulder and posture-related pain
- Knee, hip, ankle and running injuries
- Wrist, elbow, hand pain and repetitive strain
- Sports injuries, gym pain and muscle tightness
- Post-op physiotherapy and long-term rehab
Not sure if you need physio?
That is exactly what your first appointment is for. If physio is right for you, we will explain the plan. If you do not need ongoing treatment, we will tell you.

Vitality Physiotherapy FAQs
Does Vitality cover physio — and is One Body LDN an approved Vitality physiotherapy provider?
Yes — Vitality covers physiotherapy as part of most outpatient health insurance policies, and One Body LDN is a recognised approved provider. If you are searching for Vitality approved physio near you in London, our clinics offer same-week appointments across multiple locations.
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 happens in a 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.
Will I have to pay anything for Vitality physiotherapy?
We bill your insurer directly, so in most cases there is no upfront cost for your treatment.
The only exception is if your policy includes a personal excess — this is agreed when you took out your plan. If an excess applies, your insurer will confirm the amount when you obtain your authorisation code. We are always transparent about any costs before your first session. No hidden fees, no surprises.
Do I need a GP referral?
This depends on your specific policy. Some plans allow direct access — meaning you can self-refer to a registered physiotherapist without a GP letter. Others require a GP or consultant referral before issuing an authorisation code.
The safest step is to call your insurer before booking and confirm whether a referral is needed. If you would like guidance on what to ask, our team can help.
What do I need before my first Vitality approved physio appointment?
Before attending your first session at one of our approved physio clinics, have the following ready:
- Your policy or membership number
- A valid authorisation code from your insurer confirming your treatment is approved
- The number of sessions authorised (or the value, e.g. £X of treatment)
- The excess amount you are required to cover, if applicable
- A GP or consultant referral letter, if required by your policy
Once you have your authorisation code, booking takes under 60 seconds online — no phone calls or deposits required.
How do I book using my insurance?
Booking physiotherapy with private health insurance at One Body LDN is straightforward, whichever stage you are at:
If you already have your authorisation code:
Book online in under 60 seconds. After booking, you will be sent a short form to complete before your appointment. This must be submitted in advance so your insurer can approve your session. If it is not completed beforehand, your insurer may not cover that session, and the cost will be your responsibility.
If you do not yet have your authorisation code:
Book your first session, and you will immediately receive step-by-step instructions through our insurance portal — including who to call, exactly what to say, and what details to send us to get your session approved. No other clinic in the UK provides this level of insurance guidance.
In both cases, we handle all billing directly with your insurer. Same-week and same-day appointments are available across our London physio clinics. No deposits, no admin, no waiting.
Are your Vitality physios HCPC registered?
Yes — all Vitality registered physiotherapists at One Body LDN are also HCPC registered, which is a legal requirement to practise as a physiotherapist in the UK. They are also members of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) and have completed our rigorous internal clinical onboarding process.
HCPC registration is the standard requirement all major UK health insurers use to approve physiotherapists for insured treatment. You can verify any of our clinicians on the public HCPC register.
What conditions do your Vitality physiotherapists treat?
Our Vitality physiotherapists 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 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.
How many physiotherapy sessions does Vitality cover?
Vitality Health members can usually self-refer for up to six Priority Physio sessions per plan year through Vitality’s Priority Physio network. Some policies may include extra outpatient cover that allows more physiotherapy, depending on the plan. Please check your Vitality Care Hub or policy documents before booking.
Does Vitality cover sports massage or rehab?
Vitality may cover physiotherapy or rehabilitation if it is included in your policy and authorised through the correct pathway, but standalone sports massage is not usually covered directly.
At One Body LDN, your physiotherapy appointment can include hands-on treatment, soft tissue therapy, deep tissue techniques, manual therapy and rehab exercises where clinically appropriate. This means you may still benefit from sports massage-style treatment as part of an approved Vitality physiotherapy session.

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.
