Testimonials
You don’t just need to take my word for it. Here’s what some of my patients say about how I helped them.
Thanks to Neil, I am a new man…
RT, 63, Exmouth
For some years now I have had back trouble which I put down to too much physical exercise and lifting heavy weights over my lifetime. I had trouble even stretching to put on my socks and often felt discomfort doing menial tasks. My problems came to a head when I felt a terrific pain in my lower back while playing golf and was unable to move freely, as if someone had kicked me in the back.
After several unsuccessful sessions with chiropractors I contacted Neil and was pleased when he sent me information beforehand explaining what would be involved in the consultation. Neil asked me lots of questions about my past and current physical activities, concerns about back pains, what I felt was wrong with my back, my abilities and limitations etc.
Neil said I should be aware of the pain but relax into it. For the first time in months I am able to put on my socks without tension and pain and all because he said I could do it. Neil advised me at the end of our meeting that all being well it was unlikely I would need to see him again. How refreshing is that!!
I am looking forward to being a lot more physically active and confident in the knowledge that I can do anything I want within reason.
Pain, it really is, just that!

I have been told by previous physios that I’ll need to get used to never being able to run again, play football with my kids or move around without pain. Injections of steroids and exercises yielded no results, so I put up with it…until I ran (metaphorically) into Neil. The previous diagnoses didn’t ring right with him, so we tried to unravel what was wrong.
After a couple of sessions, some video work of me trying to run revealed evidence of the REAL problem. Learning the root cause and Neil teaching me how to overcome it has enabled me to play football again, run and exercise normally. I can’t express how grateful I am and how much of a difference it has made to me. So much of what Neil said was common sense, but I needed a medical professional to explain it in a way that I could really understand.
Thanks Neil, you’re amazing!
I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Neil is an outstanding physio. He takes the time to look beyond the problem presented by the patient to understand the reasons behind it. This holistic approach means he does not just fix the problem, he fixes the cause of the problem.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Neil to get things sorted out.

I run, I cycle and I see a Physiotherapist – to be more precise – I consult Neil Davey.
I’ve known Neil now for over 8 years. He’s helped me overcome and get through not only running related injury and the mental setbacks that come as a result. He has also helped me back to fitness after double foot surgery and back to fell running – giving me the confidence to believe in my feet again!
Don’t expect a miracle, though what you will get is someone who will listen to you, will understand your concerns. Neil will then put his exceptional experience and knowledge to work to help you overcome, and back on track to recovery. Neil will give traditional physiotherapy backed up by other methods. Both have a place in getting you right.
