I went there for two sessions as part of a care plan from my doctor for a long standing back injury. I’ve seen lots of physios about it so I know what kind of advice and assessments should be done and only wanted to try them out here because it was close to work and easy to get to. The physio had no interest in doing a thorough assessment or talking through some of the pain triggers and what can be done about them. His entire idea of treatment was to stick his elbows in the muscles of my back for 20 minutes which just gave a temporary feeling of muscle looseness. He could have been talking to me through the pressure point massage but didn’t say a word. At the end of the first session he said come back again and we’ll talk about exercises for dealing with the issue. In the second session he did the same massage. At the end of the second session he didn’t say anything about exercises except to say your back muscles are looser today so they seem fine, come back in again if you’re having issues. No exercises or discussion of how to avoid pain triggers. The time of the elbow massage he was completely silent. Complete waste of time. No idea how the other physios are. Just mine wasn’t very good.
I have been attending City Physio Stretch and Tone classes for some years and enjoy the difference it makes to my agility. The staff are friendly and Linda tailors sessions to suit individual needs. Working in the city makes it so convenient. 45 mins in my lunch hour and we're done! When I developed tennis elbow through playing sport, I sought their help. Ben was very knowledgeable and recommended different techniques and exercises for cure. After only a couple of appointments, the difference was amazing. I haven't had a problem since. When my son rolled his ankle playing football, I recommended City Physio. They provided expert advice and management which allowed him to play successfully for the rest of the season. The staff are friendly and professional and I thoroughly recommend City Physiotherapy to anyone.
So, to gain a better understanding of chronic pain and a fresh perspective, I went to see Michael and Linda earlier in the year. I sent my gf to see Linda to get her piriformis syndrome cleared off. I'm a 4th year Clinical Exercise Physiology Student and I have to say by far, City Physio is probably the best Preferred Provider Physio Clinic in Adelaide meaning that people on a budget like us students and the more well off get the same high quality treatment. Linda's 20+ years of experience really shows when she treats you. The same can be said for Michael which means that her staff are carefully hand picked well trained and have a lot of experience even though some may be young. 100% will come back when emergencies do arise and also another place that will be added to my referral list when I am practicing.
I cannot speak more highly of the professional, effective, superb service offered by Linda and her team at City physio. Linda is a highly experienced physio whose strong, targeted treatments have relieved me of back and neck pain and more recently, allowed me to address a chronic tfl injury. Linda explains her treatments thoroughly and works to not only treat, but prevent, further pain or inflammation. She takes time to understand your issue to ensure you are receiving the most effective treatment possible. Between treatments I have also received exceptional massage with Clodagh Glynn. I have had massage many times in my life but none as good as Clodagh whose physiological knowledge and technique is amazing. Thank you City physio for your exceptional service!
I'll tell you now that Linda is a magician. I have had a sore shoulder for 3 months. I had seen 2 physios, a chiro and remedial masseur, along with doing a series of rehab exercises to try fix my shoulder. Linda could sense my frustration with my situation and wasn't afraid to use some force to get deep into my muscles. After a session of dry needling and deep tissue massage I am feeling far looser and have better mobility. I will continue to see Linda again. I'll also note that I have been to this practice previously (a year ago for my opposite shoulder) and really want to stress that this physio is a great place to visit. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the clinic is bright and clean. 100% would recommend injuring yourself to visit this clinic.
We have been attending City Physiotherapy for many years for all our physio needs. During this time we have also attended the great Stretch and Exercise Classes. City Physiotherapy is conveniently located in King William Street in the city. The staff are very professional, friendly and welcoming. The practice is very bright, modern and up to date. We've loved attending the Stretch and Exercise Class which is held in the well equipped Gym. The classes are presented by Linda and are very beneficial and fun. We have derived great benefits from the class over the years. The service is wonderful and we thoroughly recommend Linda and her practice to one and all. Stan and Moira D
After recently experiencing a burst disc in my back I booked in to see Karl at City Physio. Karl took the time to carefully understand why this injury occurred, then to developing a really good recovery plan. I ride bikes a lot, so getting back into it was pretty important to me. Karl set timeframes from the start which were spot on; something I feel his own background in endurance sports and rugby allow him some great insight. Karl was professional in all instances and took the time to answer any questions I had. He certainly knows his stuff. Very appreciative that he got me active again, in good time, and would have no hesitation in recommending him.
I wish I could take Pavel with me on my current work travels. I have not been in Adelaide during the working week since prior Easter. Pavel was the best Xmas present for me in late 2020. He is without doubt one of the best massage therapists I have seen. At our first meeting he asked me questions and what my requirements would be and then translated this into a therapeutic sports massage. He is professional, engaging, has a great sense of humour and interesting to talk with. He also knows when not to talk so I can just lay back and enjoy the muscle tension release. Pavel I am looking very forward to my next sports massage with you. Cheers, N
I’ve been going to City Physiotherapy for a few years now for treatment of my various sports injuries and to do preventative exercises. The reception staff are always friendly and it is not hard to get a convenient appointment time as I work in the city. The physios are professional, friendly and are passionate. I enjoy endurance cycling and I recover well after a long ride with the dry needling and physio treatment I receive. The treatment is excellent with a combination of hands on physio, dry needling, stretches, advice and strengthening exercises to help my technique on the bike. I would highly recommend City Physiotherapy to anyone.
What a great experience today! It was a random internet search that landed me at City Physio and I'm so glad I did. I was suffering from vertigo and extreme dizziness, falling to the right when I arrived. 30 minutes later I was walking out in a straight line, feeling ever so much better. Simon was amazing - calm, professional and most competent. An added unexpected surprise bonus was catching up with the boss, Linda, an old neighbour, who has obviously built a very successful city practice. Booking the appointment with Elaine at the desk was reassuring and so very helpful. What a team! Highly recommended ......10 stars!!
Linda and all of the staff at City Physio are fantastic and really care about your health and wellbeing. I have been going there for many years to treat bursitis in my hip, tennis elbow and tight and stressed neck. The results are always positive and I walk away feeling much improved and cared about. Both my teenage sons have had sports injuries treated there and they did an amazing job with Isaak last footy season to treat a badly sprained ankle and get him to the grand final. I cant recommend the practice highly enough. A truly professional and caring team. Love the Pilates class too!!!
City Physio is by far the best Physio I know. I highly recommend everyone if you have any injuries or tightness to go there! I was treated by Linda, she is an extremely knowledgeable Physio. She has done dry needling and stretching on my shoulders, spine and arms. It has been so effective that i have gained a tremendous amount of energy from the release of tension in the muscles and nervous system. I have been a Personal Trainer for over 10 years and all of my clients i have sent to the City Physio have had extremely positive feedback. Once again i could not recommend it enough!!
I was introduced to Linda and her City Physio Practice through friends. I had severe pain in my left knee and leg. Linda gave me the best treatment I could wish for. She also introduced me to some "home-exercise", which improved my movements and balance immensely. She is very knowledgeable about what she is doing including dry needling. I am in very good and professional hands with Linda. I also want to mention Linda's reception staff. Always friendly and good for a laugh. This definitely has to do with the overall good atmosphere in the City Physio practice.
I have had sciatica for over a month. I visited Linda, who made me feel very welcome and at ease. She proceeded to work on my troubles with firm massage, dry needles and conversation about what was happening. I walked out feeling much better. I had a weekend ahead of 4X 14 hour days on my feet, and was quite nervous about it, but all went well. I went back for a second visit after the weekend, and am feeling almost 100%. Very impressed, and excited to be feeling so much better. Looking forward to more wellbeing in the space. Thank you!
This is the best physiotherapy centre I have been to. I have some sessions with Linda for neck pain and they are helpful for the pain. She is a very good physio and has world of knowlege in physiotherapy. She does the wholistic treatment for the patient. She is very hands on with the treatment and uses accupunture along with the treatment. Also, she has advised me to do a lot of stretches which are very helpful for my condition. The receptionist is also very friendly and helpful. Overall, very good experience. Regards Mohammad
I have been a client of City Physiotherapy since the late 1990’s. I have scoliosis which means my back goes out more than I do and hence have been to many physios over the years! All the staff from Leanne the Office Manager and Emma the singing receptionist to the physios are a friendly happy bunch and always make you feel welcome. If you are in pain they will do their best to fit you into someone ASAP for treatment. I can highly recommend Linda and her team at City Physiotherapy.
I have been getting treatment for my neck and shoulders from physiotherapist Fraser for about a month, and have been extremely happy with the service and outcome. I am grateful for Fraser's persistence in dealing with a difficult-to-resolve injury. This persistence and skill, along with his overall cheerful and friendly manner, make for a very positive treatment experience, and I highly recommend him and City Physiotherapy to anybody who may need this kind of injury treatment.
I saw physiotherapist Ian Voo with neck and trapezius muscle problems that I had been suffering with for 3 weeks. The treatment I received from Ian was excellent. Ian was thorough and professional, taking time and care to understand my problems. I felt a difference straight away and major improvement after one session of dry needling. I Have a follow up appointment with Ian in a week. When in pain you want to see someone quickly to sort it out I can highly recommend Ian
I cannot recommend Linda highly enough. Having had neck pain and shoulder problem, and sciatic nerve pain on my left leg due to pregnancy for many years. Linda worked around the damage with acupuncture treatment. My treatments of Acupuncture have helped me tremendously and have reduced the pain to almost non-existent right after the first treatment! Linda has been my lifesaver and very pleased with the treatment process. I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone!
Last Saturday, I had the most amazing massage. I was impressed that my physio Ian Voo had given Clodagh Glynn (Remedial Massage Therapist) my history prior to the appt, though I suspect Clodagh would have found the spots anyway! While there were moments that required some deep breathing (haha!) I walked out with more mobility, feeling longer in the neck and with my shoulders more aligned. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending Clodagh...I'm going back!
3 rounds of dry needling only increased my pain. Last round caused a migraine. When called to cancel my next appointment and asked to speak to the physio who worked on me to talk about it, I was told "we don't do phone consults", and "he should have talked about whether or not it was helping during the visit". Why would I go to the CBD, still in tremendous pain, and pay a full rate, for a 5-minute conversation? Very disappointed in the way this was handled.
The staff are always wonderful and friendly. Working in a job that often has me hunched over doing fine work for long periods of time, I get a lot of tension in my shoulder and neck. As it is a constant problem, about year ago Simon and I worked out a maintenance plan to come in every few weeks to keep on top of it rather than when it builds up and I am in pain. This is a great way for me to do it and I feel better doing it this way.
These guys rock! My experience with the crew at City Physic had me back up to full speed within weeks of my painful shin splints injury. I cannot recommend them highly enough! The treatment available as well as their expertise knowledge was reassuring, the frequency of appointment needs was managed well with flexible availablity and the efficiency of service was outstanding. I highly recommend these guys for any injuries.
I have been attending City Physiotherapy for some time now and am absolutely delighted with their service and the outcomes. I have a recurring back issue and through my regular visits to Linda and the team, I have noticed a distinct improvement. They take their time to understand your individual areas of concern and implement treatments to suit your specific needs. I can highly recommend this practice and their services.
I've been going to see Fraser for some 4 years now for a range of different issues. Every time I've been to him he has fixed whatever problem I had without fail within 1-2 sessions. He's not pushy to get me back and always has a method of progress for me to self manage after seeing him. All round a very knowledgeable guy, and very personable and comfortable to engage with. Recommend him to everyone I know.
I have nothing but good things to say about the treatment I have received from Clodagh. I am currently training for a cycling event and have had an issue with my neck and shoulders. Clodagh listened to my issues and has helped me emenclly. I feel so much more comfortable on the bike now. Clodagh has a very pleasant and friendly manner. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing some treatment.
Have been going to City Physiotherapy for over a year now, most recently seeing Simon for ongoing issues following a serious motor vehicle accident. Simon knows his stuff, has great interpersonal skills and an ability to find my sore spots without asking, now that's talent. I would highly recommend City Physiotherapy, their admin staff are fantastic and each physio I have seen has been excellent.
What a fantastic experience! It was a random internet search that landed me at City Physio and I'm so glad I did it was right near work. I was suffering from lower back pain. 30 minutes later after my first appointment feeling ever so much better Simon was amazing - calm, professional and very patient. Happy to recommend City Physio to my family and friends. Staff were very helpful and happy
I've been going to Linda for about 6 years now for treatment of an ongoing inflammatory disease. Her treatment of my condition has always been excellent. Simon has also treated me for trismus following wisdom tooth removal, which was very effective and allowed me to talk, sing and eat without pain (I've never experienced pain like it!). Highly recommend her and the whole team at City Physio.
Excellent service! I’ve been coming here for the last 10 years and have been routinely blown away by the quality of care. The staff are highly knowledgeable, friendly, and have an exceptional dedication to their craft and patients. Linda has put me back on my feet more times than I can count, and treats each new problem with a uniquely tailored approach. Would give more stars if I could!
Linda is an extremely gifted Physio, but she's more than just a physio, she is so extensively trained in a range of therapies that she seems to know exactly what is needed every time I have a session. I have been suffering with various back and neck issues for years and have been to numerous therapists, but none of them come remotely close to the relief I get from Linda. Thanks Linda
I have been coming to see City Physio for quite awhile and highly recommend their services. Ian has been great in helping me get on top of a lower back issue and the staff at reception always greet me with a smile and are really accommodating if I need to reschedule due to work commitments. If you have something that is giving you grief go and see the people at City Physio
I've been to many different physios who all use massages as a recovery method, and after visiting them, I rarely found that I had received a good massage. Many of these physios would often go too light on the massages. This is the opposite with Linda; she ensures that she delivers an amazing hands-on massage, as well as the occasional cupping and dry needling session.
Have attended many times over the years & always extremely happy. Simon has a great sense of humour (to lighten the anxiety) & he's always managed to cure my back problem. He's currently also trying to help my feet issues. Hope I can get back into my high heels & dance the night away, lol. The reception ladies are always friendly & very efficient. Well done team!
I definitely recommend City Physiotherapy! Linda Shacklock is absolutely brilliant. I also saw Fraser Green recently when I had painful low back issues out of the blue. He was great. I got in at short notice after 5pm, and Fraser managed to sort the problem out in one session! The stretches and exercises he recommended have helped keep the issue from returning.
Tore my hamstring last year playing Hockey. Saw Lauren and she did an amazing job not only helping me get fit for my grand final but also offering advice on injury prevention exercises. I'm now towards the end of preseason hitting personal bests in my time trials and hamstrings are feeling strong for the first time ever. Would recommend Lauren to anybody!
I visit City Physiotherapy for my monthly massage with Tashi. It's always a challenge when you are looking for a new therapist, as I was when I relocated to Adelaide two years ago. It was my good luck to find Tashi, an excellent massage therapist who knows how to treat your injuries and relax you at the same time. I highly recommend paying Tashi a visit.
I have long struggled with injuries and pain as a result of my job. I have had massages with Clodagh 3 times now and from day one there was dramatic improvement. Her knowledge and expertise have releaved me of pain and increased my mobility. I am so grateful and will be continuing to regularly visit City Physiotherapy. Thank you so much Clodagh!!!
Great remedial massage technique from Pavel and excellent service! Always friendly and approachable. I'm quite picky with the massage technique as most of the time they are either too light or heavy and it ends up pain and soreness around the area. Pavel always manage to reduce the symptoms right away after getting a massage session from him.
I've been attending this clinic since 2016. The physios have been greatly helpful to me. Recently Tesia helped me with my pilates program. She was one of the best physios I've met. She accurately assessed my conditions, set up a perfect program for me, demonstrated the exercises and corrected my postures really well. I highly recommend her.
Karl was a magician, I hobbled in with pain and left pain-free. He gave a knowledgeable assessment of the nerve related issue, applied an immediate release massage and instructed recovery exercises until my next appointment. I will recommend him to my family and encourage his service to help others living in pain in our community.
Linda is a fabulous physio, who is considerate and kind, but not so kind that her remedial massages don't hit the spot - she has strong hands and gets in and does a proper job. The other key point is that City Physio charges are reasonable, and for those with a Senior's card, the practice offers you a small discount off the gap.
I had bad back pain after my Pregancy so I researched City Physiotherapies Pilates classes. Linda and her team gave me a personalised approach and after 2 months my back is back to normal. They are conviniently located in the city and they know what they're doing. I highly recommend for any issues you might have. Well Done
I found the service at the practice wonderful Linda is one of the best Physio I have had work on me she listens to what you want and given me relief from back and foot pain I also suffer from PTSD and I felt safe and was given some books to read all cost was covered by my TPI card thanks and two thumbs up Duncan Hall
I have been having problems with my knee since August this year. I saw Fraser on Monday night for the first time. He listen to the problems i was having & worked his magic fingers. It was the first night I was able to sleep without much pain. If you are having problems I highly recommend you contact City Physio.
I was very impressed with Alistar today. Mr magic hands. I've never been to a physio before. I felt so good after the appointment and tonight my symptoms have lessened. My next appointment is already booked. Thank you ladies at reception for your care and understanding. Thankyou Alistar
Quality Physio! Professional and to the point therapy, I've seen Simon for a number of visits and he is highly knowledgeable and skilled in both diagnosis and treatment, as well as being able to talk through stressors/factors which may contribute to further injury. Brilliant …
Simon has proven to be a highly experienced professional who quickly assessed my most difficult long term injuries. His remedial treatment has proven very effective. I would definitely recommend Simon and City Physio to family and friends seeking a positive Physio experience.
Why would you go anywhere else! This place is well staffed, well credentialed, well positioned in the Adelaide city, and easy to get to. I have been more than happy for over 2 years with the results of great physio therapy and the available gym. Lourdes is just to far to go!
An easily accessible and central location with friendly and welcoming staff. Simon is a fantastic Physiotherapist; Helpful, knowlegeable, and professional. I have been helped with several different issues and I will continue to make City Pysiotherapy my first stop in future.
Quite simply Linda is amazing her staff are so helpful and accomodating. I have found the holy grail of Physiotherapist's I have had some complex issues that Linda has been working through with success. Thank you Linda and thank you too your staff you guys are the best
I have had chronic neck pain for 8 months. Went to 3 different physios before going to City physio. Simon and fraiser are amazing. After the first session I already felt a difference. 6 weeks on and I've had minimal neck pain for 3 days now. Can not recommend enough!!!
Linda at City Physio is an absolutely outstanding practitioner. Her treatment of my lower back pain has been an absolute god send. I'm so extremely thankful to have found such a wonderful physiotherapist and honestly cannot recommend her highly enough.
The service at City Physiotherapy was excellent. Nameeta was great, really professional and great to deal with. Had me back on the mend in no time and left me with some good tips and exercises to keep me going. Can't recommend the practice enough.
Really happy with my experience here! The physios are really great with whole body assessment to identify the root of the problem rather than focusing on just where the pain is. I had Namita who was really helpful with my in season management.
I just want to say, “God Bless You Linda”! It has been years now that I have been suffering from back and neck issues with constant headaches, dizziness and brain fog. Several times I have been in tears due to my inability to be properly
I was visiting Adelaide for a half marathon, and got a last minute massage because my knee was sore. Tashi was really helpful and did a great job, I wasn't sure if I would be able to run before the appointment. Thank you very much!
Tesia is a professional and friendly physiotherapist. She greatly improved my neck and shoulder pain after 30 minutes treatment. All round a very comfortable and personable to engage with. Would highly recommend to everyone.
I am receiving treatment for a severely damaged Achilles at City Physio. I am really impressed by my practitioner (Fraser) and feel very motivated by him to get back to my pre injury condition. Highly recommend this clinic.
I love the Pilates class at City Physiotherapy. Ian is a very caring instructor who gives you the time needed to make sure you are getting the most benefit. It has helped with my back and neck problems enormously.
My appointment was accidentally double booked and they made it work with my very limited availability to keep me with an appointment - not only that but the Fraser was so good and so helpful. 10/10 would recommend
I had an old injury (years) and Linda has made inroads to my recovery in just a couple of months. The injury is almost healed. I recommend City Physio to whoever I meet who needs the services of a physiotherapist.
Linda is an excellent physiotherapist who explains things in a way for all to understand. Linda is always helpful and willing to go the extra mile and show you exercises to strive towards optimum health. Lee
Linda and the team at City Physio are fantastic. I’d highly recommend them to anyone with any injuries or niggles. The city location makes it easy to fit appointments in around a busy schedule.
Awesome! I can now move my back! The thing that impressed me the most was the amount of time Nameeta gave me. Great vibe from her...very friendly and professional. She knew exactly what my
The staff at City Physiotherapy are wonderful. The admin team are delightful and the physiotherapists are skilled and well practiced. Ian in particular was amazing. Highly recommend.
Clodagh is a very understanding and professional massage therapist. Coming from a triathlon background herself, she really understands my needs and helps me keep my body in shape!
I have been seeing Simon for 3 years or so for treatment with my legs for running I find this very effective and with the dry needling Simon Knows the exact spots to target
Great stuff, Železné Palce (Iron Thumbs) Pavel worked all the painful knots out of my neck and shoulders in less than 30 mins, got a health fund rebate, too! I will be back...
Highly professional, great service. Simon helped relieve the pain in my lower back, it felt immediately better after the first consult. Would recommend to friends and family.
Pavel Pracný - Massage Therapy. I have just had a 30 minute remedial massage on my shoulders and neck and it was very good indeed. I feel a lot better now. I recommend Pavel.
Linda is wonderful. She is very thorough and I always feel a hundred times better after she has worked her magic on me. I cannot recommend her highly enough. :)
Popped in after a cycling holiday to loosen up my Shoulders- service was great, results awesome. If I lived in the same state, I would definitely come back!
I have been a long standing client of City Physio and have greatly appreciated their punctuality, their integrity and the advice and treatment they give.
Fast, professional service. Offer dry needling if required, but don’t push it. Have seen 3 different physios and have been happy with them all.
Best experience of my life and I have been through a lot. Thank you Simon and the team for the great work. Will definitely be back for sure!
Simon is a great, no-nonsense physio. Gets the problem resolved in the shortest possible time and obviously loves his job.
Best deep tissue massage ever! Pavel has magic hands that will give you magic treatments. The best in Adelaide!
Dear Linda Thank you for your kind response, I wish Ian and his wife the best.
Linda and her team truly are the best Physiotherapists in Adelaide!! Thank you
