Physiotherapy is primarily the use of physical means to restore reduced or impaired activity.

 
  • Mary's weekly zoom class and the availability of the class recording are an absolute ‘life saver’ as I continue to age. Her classes prevent or positively impact reduced mobility and maintaining good posture, balance, and bone density is addressed in our regular movements. I have enjoyed her classes for over 20 years, Mary is such a knowledgeable, thorough, kind and thoughtful teacher.

  • Because of your Physiotherapy training I feel I am in safe hands and have managed to make improvements in my strength and flexibility. ( Not bad considering I’m approaching 80!) The individual treatment session I had with you set me on the path of successful management of a hip that is “severely osteoarthritic”. Your assessment was very empowering, helping me to analyse my strengths and weaknesses. I have also attended online workshops - the most memorable was the one on pelvic health, and to this day I no longer have to get up to pee in the night. Also, I can go for a day out without worrying about finding a toilet every hour!

  • Mary has helped me enormously since 2013. In 1:1 She has helped relieve neck pain and shoulder pain and back pain. Mary has helped improve my breathing especially since a diagnosis of bronchiectasis. Mary has helped improve my posture. I first sought Mary’s help after a series of falls, she has worked with me to improve my balance. Mary’s Back care classes on Zoom have also been very helpful with posture, balance and with working on core strength. She has been instrumental in keeping me moving.

  • Mary Thornton is a truly inspirational teacher. She has helped me regain a range of movement which I thought had been lost forever.
