Reviews

“Sophie is an amazing physio. She has totally fixed my lower back and hip issues. A great space – super relaxing!”

“Kristin is very easygoing which puts you completely at ease during treatments. Her patience, gentleness and great communication ensures that you leave armed with the best knowledge to help yourself heal between visits.

The rooms are beautiful and so relaxing, and you never feel like you’re being hurried along. I would highly recommend Kristin for all your physiotherapy needs”

“Such a lovely welcoming environment. Great not to be rushed and to have the extra time for some pilates exercises to complement the treatment.”

“My teenage daugter had surgery on her ankle. Kristin at Woollahra Physiotherapy designed her a recovery and rehibilatation programme. She made a great recovery. The practise is so lovely and friendly it made it a pleasure to visit through a stressful time. I am now doing pilates there.”
