1. “I have always found
the staff at ALO to be both friendly and extremely professional.
ALO’s team of practitioners demonstrated both cutting-edge
medical knowledge, and a high degree of dexterity to treat
my condition. It was also pleasing to see that the team were
happy to embrace holistic treatments (such as acupuncture)
when necessary, and encourage consultation with other specialists
such as podiatrists to offer a complete treatment solution."
- Mr M Sharp
2. "Since returning to the UK a few years ago I have
been fortunate in finding a physiotherapy clinic, ALO in London,
which has a very sympathetic approach to identifying, understanding
and alleviating ones physical condition.
From a first appointment through to a detailed analysis and
the drawing up of possible remedial procedures, one has the
feeling that the whole approach of the clinic is one of serious
professionalism. In my case I was not only cured of back and
balance problems, but was given a number of progressive exercises
to be done at home to strengthen my core muscles.
The aim of ALO is, I believe,
to give the patient a long term cure, which can take weeks
or even months to achieve. But it is well worth the effort
and I would have no hesitation in recommending the clinic
to anyone needing physiotherapy treatment. Perseverance with
the prescribed programme is the secret of success, under the
watchful eye of course of ALO.
By doing this I have been able once again to participate fully
in all my golfing commitments - free from the nagging stiffness
and pains of a once bad back."
- Mr E Fergusson
3. I had suffered for several
years with a painful knee but thanks to Andre I have dramatically
improved my mobility. I really appreciated how much care Andre
took in monitoring my progress and in tailoring each session
based on my feedback. Andre was truly committed to helping
me to recover. And recover I did, as a result of Andre’s
physiotherapy, as well as his holistic advice on actions to
take to improve my overall physical health."

A
new approach to Physiotherapy
“With more moving parts
than any machine, it’s not surprising your body occasionally
cries out in pain or refuses to do what you tell it to do.
Physiotherapy is an affective way to treat many of the problems
you can experience”
(Chartered Society of Physiotherapy 2002)

is to place you at the centre of our care and combine the
medical with the holistic approach to treatment.
