Reviews of The Back & Body Clinic

G. B.

Amy Randall was amazing with my rehabilitation. After 9 weeks felt back to normal. Can't recommend the whole company enough, from walking in the door and Chris knowing you personally by name when you walk in the door from the first time you go in. To your therapist remembering everything about you and your past sessions. For me it worked amazing after Amy recommended it I was having dry kneedling my shoulders and back have felt amazing since starting that.

M. G.

I took my mum to see Mike at the back and body clinic in Great Denham after they were recommended by a family member. She has been suffering for a number of years with knee pain due to arthritis. Mike was absolutely brilliant, took the time to talk, ask questions and investigate thoroughly her problem and then recommended steroid injections which he administered there and then. Mum has been pain free since and the difference in her walking is amazing. Been back since for a follow up and again service was remarkable. Would thoroughly recommend the back and body clinic.

G. P.

I have a had a very positive experience from all the staff at Back and Body Clinic. I am in the fitness industry and very impressed with Mike Mansfield in regards to his knowledge , professionalism and standard of treatment , I would not hesitate in recommending my clients to him.

S. I.

A huge thank you to Amy, she has magic in her hands, after a few sessions my back felt human again. I was really struggling to even turn sides once lying down but her massages and exercises have helped me so much. The receptionist are also very welcoming, everyone here is friendly, would definitely recommend this place.

H. L. -. M.

Cannot recommend the clinic enough. I went in with my mum which was in a lot of pain after lifting something heavy and Amy managed to diagnose what was confirmed afterwards through as a lower back fracture. Really happy with the assessment and the friendliness and helpfulness of everyone from the clinic.

L. B.

Shannan Clayton has been treating me for a leg and foot problem which has.bothered me for years. After only 4 sessions my leg has no pain and my foot is improving daily. A great osteopath and very professional in her approach as well as being fun to chat wth! Thank you to the kind staff at the Back and Body Clinic and especially to Shannan! I highly recommend her!

M. O.

Effective, efficient, professional. In my first 30 minutes session for BPPV, my background notes taken, the possible causes and potential issues ruled out using a battery of tests and the prognosis given. A series of rehab exercises given and follow up to GP done. 30 minutes. 30 minutes. Plus Blue Light discount. Absolutely thrilled with my therapist Amy and service provided by the practice.

G. D.

Joe is amazing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ any problems you have these guys at the back and body clinic will sort it out! When I first visited I was welcomed by a friendly team and was made to feel very comfortable from the start, Not only did Joe make me feel I was in good hands but he also took an interest in my personal life which made my apointments Evan more enjoyable. Joe is a credit to the back and body clinic in great Denham and I would highly recommend them to anyone. They are very competitive on price and in a great location with free parking. Honest review 4.8.22 Glenn

R. N.

Amy has managed my return to running following a 20 year break due to repetitive injuries. Her treatment and advice has been invaluable and she’s been a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended!!

J. S.

After over a year of going from doctor to doctor, attending numerous health checks and being completely misdiagnosed I was hopeless that anything or anyone would ever help me to get to the bottom of my problem... and then I came across The Back & Body clinic. From the first phone call to my last appointment I'm extremely impressed with the services that clinic offers. But the biggest Thank You goes to Joe Dowling whom I've been seeing for the past 4 months. Joe is absolutely fantastic physio with a lot of knowledge and wonderful approach to the patient, he answered multiple of my questions and always created very friendly atmosphere during appointments. He diagnosed the issues I've been having with my diaphragm and hip and helped me on my way to recovery with hands on treatment and personally created set of exercises. Even for a work out novice like me everything was clear as a day and I was so happy with the results I was achieving. I can finally walk without pain and catch up with my 3 year old 😁 I still have a lot of work to do but I know that I'm in good hands and will definitely be back to the clinic for my checkups😊

J. M.

I go to see Shannan regularly to fix my body. She is amazing. I run a lot and then work on my laptop for most of the time so have numerous aches and pains very often but feel the difference since starting my regular treatments with Shannan last June. I look forward to seeing her tomorrow!

H. N.

I would massively recommended my therapist Amy Randall. I went in one day barely able to move my neck, but left with loads more mobility and a list of exercises that saw a full recovery the next day. I can’t rate her highly enough

D. P.

I saw Amy when I threw my back out at work. I had been in great discomfort for nearly two weeks before going there and in just one session she had virtually sorted the problem. She gave me some exercises to do and when I went back for a follow up I had no back pain at all. I can't recommend these people enough!

A. J.

I had a very good sports massage, very professional and friendly staff. Also. I got very good and honest advice for my knee after a crucial ligament replacement which helped me a lot. Thank you!

C. H.

My daughter received excellent care whilst attending the clinic. Amy was great in not just treating the issue but also educating my daughter in ways to prevent and help further injury whilst exercising

Saw Joe for a sports massage before going off to Cyprus for a 4-Day event. I think it definitely done the trick as I was starting back after an injury and wasn’t sure if I would complete all four days. He was excellent throughout, and the whole practice was a nice chilled out environment and very friendly.

D. W.

Shannon is incredibly talented and has always managed to sort any issue big or small with not just me but my family and friends, would highly recommend

O. S.

Jazzy at The Back & Body Clinic has treated both a Patella knee problem & misaligning wrist joint problem over the last 6 months. Both cases she has done a wonderful job in getting me back & able to comfortably enjoy walking the dog again. Prices are very reasonable & professionalism 2nd to none. I would highly recommend Jazzy at the clinic to anyone considering getting treatment!

K. D.

When I went to see Mike at the clinic I was in severe pain in both knees. Although the steroid injections nearly had me jumping off the bed, I can now say that I am totally pain free and it was worth it. Mike and his team were friendly and professional and I was put completely at ease. I would highly recommend their services. Thank you

Joe Dowling is a compassionate and thorough physio, with in-depth knowledge and a very practised hand. He gets to the root of my problem each time, and in not only dealing with it at that moment, puts in place exercises and routines to help me progress in my own time after each session. All staff at the Back & Body Clinic are extremely helpful and show genuine care and concern for all clients. Can't rate them highly enough.

M. C.

Joe is a competent, friendly physio who reassured me and has set me well on my way to recovery. Exceptionally happy with the service, the process has been seamless from booking to treatment, which is a credit to the entire team. Hopefully I won’t need to but should I get injured again, I’ll definitely be back.

Y. v. Y.

Such a great team over at the Back and Body Clinic in Bedford. I’m a regular (unfortunately) and they’ve always looked after me through all my sporting injuries. They celebrate my wins with me and know it’s important for me to play hockey. They will do everything to help get me back on the pitch ASAP in the safest possible and responsible way. Special shout out to Mike and Joe, who have both been super stars 🤩

D. L.

Brilliant service from Joe at The Body and back clinic. Diagnosed my problem really well, gave me daily exercises to complete, nothing too arduous and as I improved moved them up a level. My condition has definitely improved after only 3 visits. I would definitely return in the future if I need more treatments. I would recommend their services.

D. P.

Currently seeing Mike after I slipped a disc in my back a few weeks ago. All I can say is I’m so glad found both the clinic and him! He has ensured that I fully understood the extent of my current issues before starting to work on me. Now we are working on a progressive and consistent way to try and bring me back to fitness. If you find yourself in a similar situation I would definitely recommend!

I have had great treatment from the therapists. Most of my sessions were with Joe and Mike.They gave me practical exercises to do at home and are happy to give advice on these. Great service from all the therapists I saw and Receptionists all round.

S. A.

Brilliant professional service. The staff are extremely warm and welcoming. Mike has been excellent during my sessions to resolve a knee issue, which has improved immensely as a consequence. Can’t recommend the clinic highly enough.

P. C.

I have been seeing Joe for the last 6 months for a back and neck injury which was also causing frequent and unpleasant headaches. He is friendly, professional and has given me suitable exercises to ease areas of pain as well as regular massages to reduce pain/discomfort. Couldn't recommend enough.

A. W.

Joe has been brilliant in helping me recover from hip pain and getting me back to running regularly. The exercises he provided have meant a speedy improvement. The appointments are flexible as well. Would highly recommend!

A. S.

Just a big thank you to Joe Dowling for all his help in my rehabilitation. He immediately identified I had weak knee muscles and straight away gave me some exercises to strengthen then. Also, many other exercises to promote my hip and thigh muscles. Has given me so much confidence and hope for the future. Having a gym training background myself I had despaired of ever improving doing the exercises I know. But Joe has taught me it is the order I apply these exercises that makes the difference. THANK YOU!!

B. E.

Joe has been brilliant at helping with a bad neck issue. Excellent customer service and treatment. The Great Denham clinic is professional and welcoming. I’d have no issues with recommending Joe and The Back and Body Clinic. Five star service.

S. R.

I went to Back and Body clinic a few weeks ago, as I was going away, but was suffering with plantar fasciitis.Joe gave me such hope that he could get me to a place where I could cope with the pain. He was very sympathetic, explained everything I needed to do and gave me exercises for me to work with. After four sessions I could feel an improvement. I recently reawakened an old knee problem,when I lost my footing,so Joe is now working on that. He is an all round top bloke who I would thoroughly recommend.

R. W.

I’m really grateful for excellent physio sessions from Joe at the Back and Body Clinic. Thanks so much.

K. J.

Early days but it was so nice for someone to actually understand my pain and how it affects different parts of the body. It feels like it's the first time I've been listened to. Mike asked me about everything that could be related to the pain and then completed a number of tests on my body in order to confirm the diagnosis. A plan has been put in place to resolve the issue as well as to give me some relief in the short term while it's being worked on. It was a friendly clinic and I would highly recommend.

T. B.

Really impressed with the clinic and in particular Shannon. The whole clinic is really professional and the care is fantastic. Shannon has been great, managing the outcomes of various injuries with immense skill, knowledge and care and with excellent outcomes. Her kind and very genuine care to her patients ( she looks after my wife and daughter as well) is a credit to her and the clinic. I would really recommend this clinic.

S. T.

I have been attending the clinic for a few months now. Joe is a knowledgeable professional therapist and he has really improved my situation for me which is great. I highly recommend the clinic if you have any discomfort in your body from head to toe.

S. R.

Convinced I would need surgery on my painfully seized up knees I tried this as a last resort. Within half an hour Mike had diagnosed the problem and started treatment which resulted in immediate and dramatic reduction in pain. After a couple more sessions I am virtually pain free and have far more flexibility. Life changing. I cannot recommend this place and Mike M too highly.

R. P.

I attended the clinic with a repeating condition with my lower back in May and could hardly stand or walk and took an hour to get out of bed . After six sessions over three months I feel stronger than I have done for years with the exercises and tools to fix and keep fixed. Well done Shannan!

G. B. S.

Shannan is simply phenomenal! As a patient of hers I feel completely confident in her abilities, she has such a range of techniques and takes so much time to really understand my pain. I feel the benefit of seeing her immediately after my sessions.

H. C.

Mike and Jazzy have worked wonders on my back! Before I came to the clinic my pain was pretty constant, Mike has helped treat not only the symptoms but address the real issue behind that and enabled me to build up my muscle strength. This has made a big difference to my everyday life! Jazzy's sports massages are fantastic - cannot recommend enough!

Absolutely fantastic. Immediately found the issue and helped stop a migraine in its track. Mike also gave advice in a fun and easy to understand way which has helped me to incorporate changes in my daily routine. The reception team are also welcoming and professional. I definitely recommend The Back and Body Clinic.

G. O.

I have been seeing Shannan at Back and Body Clinic for long standing muscular conditions. She has been able to make significant improvements to my mobility, pain and muscular health. Her mix of osteopathy, sports therapy and other specialisms is perfect for me. I am totally impressed with the excellent service she provides me. She talks me through the treatment in detail, teaches me how to make the improvements last and supports me fully in achieving positive health improvements - I will be continuing to see Shannan monthly to maintain my muscle health. A real diamond with a special ability to heal.

V. P.

I've been coming here for over a year and a half now and Shannan has been fantastic. I attend the clinic every 4-6 weeks for routine check ups as I play a fair amount of sport. Shannan always spots any niggles that I may have and advisors me on great preventative exercises that allow me to continue efficiently in my given sport. The service and level of professionalism is fabulous and I can't recommend Shannan and the Back and Body Clinic enough.

C. A.

The whole team are friendly, professional and make you feel at ease. Would definitely recommend physio sessions! They have made a massive difference to myself. I've had my sessions with Mike but the whole team seem very approachable. Excellent service and results after a short space of time.

R. M.

What a fantastic, COVID safe experience! Professional and friendly welcome from the team before every appointment and following a series of sessions with Mike, I am not only in much better shape physically, I am a wiser man. Mike explains every step of the journey, so you fully understand how the problem came about and what needs to be done to fix and recover. I am sure he performed some kind of witchcraft on my legs, the improvement in such a short space of time has been unbelievable! Thanks to the whole team and look forward to the rest of the journey!!

J. S.

My experiences at The Back & Body Clinic have always been exceptional. All the staff are friendly and professional, the treatment first class and the results a great relief. I would particularly like to thank Rachel for making such a difference to me with regards to the right therapy to manage my ongoing back pain. I cannot praise the whole team highly enough!

g. c.

My back used to Hurt a lot after my accident. Since I starter therapy With this Clinic i started feeling a lot better. Very good service, would recommend. Great ambient!

M. S.

I have seen Mike for five sessions for treatment for Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome (hips). The clinic is very welcoming and Mike is superb, from struggling to walk without pain to completely pain free in 2 1/2 hours. Cant recommend them all enough. Brilliant

Recommended by AXA PPP for a calf injury. I made an appointment at Denham and was welcomed in. I was seen exactly on time by Mike who immediately understood the issue and through a series of tests, diagnosed the severity of the injury and explained the treatment and the likely cause, and when I was likely to be able to resume activities. The four questions I had for my online doctor who couldn't really answer them. Five starts for the initial consultation, I expect that the treatment will be equally good, it has been so far. Highly recommend.

C. C.

I have had nothing but positive results with this clinic, having been treated by 2 different physios now (Mike Mansfield and Emma at Moulton). I do a lot of running, weight training and more recently horse riding! Various problems have arisen over time and a couple of years a go Mike’s treatment enabled me to run my first half marathon pain free! They have cured every ailment by treating me, but more importantly giving me easy exercises to do at home which enable me to continue with all my activities.

S. C.

My journey started 2.5 years ago with a sciatic nerve impingement and left me with nerve damage in my right leg and foot. I am a keen weight lifter and have been regularly lifting weights for around 8 years. I'm also a hefty size at around 17.5 stone. I came to the Back and Body clinic in the hope we could rectify the aftermath of my injury. My previous experience with health care professionals has not been a good one and I have definitely been ripped off in the past. But no longer will that be the case I can honestly say that in the few weeks I have been to the clinic I am feeling full of hope as I am already seeing improvements. Mike advised that it would be worthwhile having a podiatry appointment with Ian. I then discussed my current state with Ian and what I wanted from the appointment and after a thorough examination of my leg and foot some options were discussed. We went with the orthotic insert option but at no point was there any pressure to do so. I never once felt like I was being made to purchase something I didn't feel I needed. They seemed expensive and I was worried but let me tell you once I did some research I felt better about the cost AND when I got them and tried them on the difference was just phenomenal and worth every single penny. I promise you if Ian and Mike recommend orthotics these boys know what they are talking about. I feel structurally sounder and to coin a phrase "like a kid in a sweet shop" about which heavy lifts I can do with them. Mike is a great guy and genuinely made me feel comfortable from the off. Ian is extremely knowledgeable and has a calm wisdom about him. I 100% recommend them and am thoroughly satisfied with my outcome so far

P. C.

Shannan has been fantastic. I've suffered with a bad neck and back for quite some time and after only a couple of sessions I could notice a huge improvement. Shannan is very knowledgeable and her friendly nature makes you feel very comfortable. I can highly recommend both the clinic and Shannan.

H. D.

Mike is excellent. He helped my husband with a complex shoulder problem which had not been correctly diagnosed as due to Covid, scans were delayed. Mike hypothesized on the likely cause which turned out to be correct and changed management plan. More recently I had a problem with my achilles and calf, and Mike treated this very effectively. He shares his thinking with you, and is just a generally nice bloke as well. Very professional and positive service and efficient responsive admin team. Premises and treatment managed safely within Covid restrictions.

M. H.

People write reviews all the time but I have to say this is 100% honest, If you are looking for a physio then look no further, You are in the right place and in safe hands. I have used the Back & Body clinic in Northampton and continue to do so. From start to finish, Lucy & team on reception, polite, helpful, knowledgeable to the physio team, Mike Mansfield, Sara & Emma. They will help, assist and do everything in their power to ensure you are receiving the correct treatment. They do not make you return if they feel you have all the tools to progress at home and only suggest you book again if beneficial to you, Not to them. I cannot speak highly enough of this company. Book now and know you're in safe hands.

B. L.

Excellent treatment and staff. Mike lives and breathes his profession which is shown through his infectious enthusiasm and exceptional expertise. Always made to feel welcome from the moment you step through the door.

K. M.

Highly recommend Mike - very knowledgeable, understanding and enthusiastic! Mike has experience of working with patients with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and has been the first physio to have a positive and forward thinking approach, whilst acknowledging my multi-systemic issues. He is confident he can improve my symptoms through specific strengthening exercises, dry needling and taping - to name a few methods used in my first 3 sessions. The reception staff are extremely helpful and welcoming too. So pleased to find this amazing clinic - and with it being local, is a bonus!

A. C.

Went along to Back and Body to see Mike 6 weeks after a shoulder injury. Came out with a diagnosis, a plan and strapping for immediate relief. And the best bit was that I was seen within in 24 hours of calling up!! Brilliant.

a. c.

I cant recommend the back and body clinic enough. The staff are fantastic. Its extremely welcoming and professional. I've been cycling for a long time now so when i injured my knee i was keen to find out what the problem was. Mike was fantastic at diagnosing the problem and ive had brilliant results in just 1 month, im pretty much pain free now and know what i need to do to keep the problem away. Mike is very knowledgeable, cares a lot about what he does and this really shows when working with him.

H. B.

I can’t recommend the Back and Body Clinic highly enough, in particular Physio Mike Mansfield, who I have been receiving physiotherapy from over the past year, previously at the Moulton clinic and now at Great Denham, following an injury to my back and shoulder in Jan, causing various aches and pains since. Mike is extremely knowledgeable and professional, listening to any concerns I have and fully explaining any treatment or exercises given, and the care I’ve received here has been exceptional, far better than previous physiotherapists I’ve been to over the years for other injuries. The staff in general are always really friendly also. Working for the ambulance service I was very anxious to return to work, and as to how my injury would affect my ability to do my job. Thanks to Mike, I was able to return to work quickly (as well as returning to running) and have been provided with great support and advice as to how I can adapt areas of my working practice, as well as home life, to help reduce any pain I still occasionally experience. Whilst the injury/pain have not quite fully resolved yet, for which Mike has been very patient with, the majority of the pain has disappeared or has greatly improved. I might add Mike is an absolute genius when it came to resolving the episodic upper neck pain with associated headaches I was experiencing, following my return to work. He completely fixed the problem instantly, thanks to his knowledge and expertise.

L. H.

Cannot give Mike and the clinic enough credit - they are just brilliant. Mike has helped me massively with pain and issues with my shoulder and neck. His knowledge and care is second to none, I am so glad I found them.

E. W.

Found this clinic excellent. I was really suffering with nerve pain and feeling low and Rachel, the physiotherapist I saw, was not only kind, warm and understanding but I soon realised the depth of knowledge she was able to employ to help me. After four sessions and following her tailored exercise program, I was amazed at my improvement. I would highly recommend this clinic. To anyone suffering, please take advantage of the expertise of the staff here. Many thanks to Rachel in particular!

S. P.

I had treatment with Rachel through Back and Body and I couldn't recommend her highly enough. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable but is super friendly, welcoming and understanding of everyday pressures that can get in the way of your recovery. She ensured that the exercises I had were quick and easy and always tried different techniques to get the most out of my sessions. Thankyou Rachel!

D. B.

Following an injury to to by bicep at Karate I attended the clinic. The reception staff were very friendly and my physio Mike was great, he quickly identified the problem and came up with a treatment plan putting my mind at rest. After 6 weekly visits and exercises to carry out at home my arm is back to full strength. I would highly recommend the Bedford Back and Body clinic to anyone and my wife is now attending with an ankle injury that is now well on the way to recovery.

J. O.

absolutely brilliant. Had back/leg issues for five years, been to several other places and not resolved. I Was seen by Shannon at Clapham, and felt the difference after my first visit. She was very professional, made me feel at ease, and is informative throughout the appointment. Couldn't recommend enough. Time slots are always accurate, and current COVID measures are excellent.

J. H.

After being involved in a serious road traffic accident which resulted in two broken femurs and a torn tendon, (amongst other injuries such as a dodgy shoulder) I have been seeing Mike Mansfield BSc (Hons) MCSP at The Back & Body Clinic. Over the past few months that I have been seeing him, he has helped lead me to a pain-free way of life and helped me achieve my own personal goals. He is always courteous, polite, and professional. He always has the panacea for any problems which may arise. Mike explains things in simple terms where needed and is very understanding, but he is perfectly able to go into detail with complex physical anatomical matters and to say that his knowledge of the human body is vast would be an understatement! If I ever have any questions or queries, Mike is always an email away! I gladly do the journey over to Bedford to receive treatment and I know that with Mike and The Back & Body Clinic, I am in very good hands! Their services are definitely competitively priced for the level of service they offer! I would most definitely recommend Mike and the Back & Body Clinic for all the services they offer as they are all a friendly and excellent bunch who are remarkable and efficient with their jobs! Reception staff and the other physios/staff are all really friendly and easy to engage with! I never have any issues approaching the clinic with any questions I may have. - Jaz

S. W.

First time visit. Very impressed, very knowledgeable and put me at ease. Thanks Mike

G. S.

Shock wave therapy :- I had three treatments of this relatively new therapy with the Back and Body clinic in Moulton Northants with Mike Mansfield. I have Tendonopathy in my right shoulder, which has been both painful and restrictive, making it impossible for me to train effectively for some months. I'd been doing physio exercises my osteopath had recommended but not gained much in the way of increased mobility, and still waking with the pain at night. The first treatment was quite painful , but short in duration making it bearable. It was well worth it as immediatley aferwards the mobiltiy in my arm and shoulder was restored by about 75%. The big bonus, that night I slept through the night without any pain whatsoever. Mike was very informative of what I should expect with the treatment and gave ample advise as to exercising afterwards. I've has two more treatments subsequently and mobolity has improved even more over the last couple of weeks, still some pain but very low grade, and only in the mornings on waking. Overall, I'm so happy to be able to get back into training quickly and be relatively painfree. I've made a follow up appointment for the next week to access my progress

s. b.

Very friendly staff and Joe was very competent and always ensured I was comfortable and felt looked after

S. P.

Fantastic experience, friendly staff, impeccable service and Covid safe. I've been seeing Shannan for my osteo treatments and she is simply amazing. She is very knowledgeable and explains everything thoroughly. She is also very gentle and has treated not only the temporary pain but also gave me long term solutions to avoid problem coming back. Highly recommend! Thank you Shannan and Back & Body Team!

G. M.

Have used a Back and Body over in Moulton and was impressed with their service. Was delighted to hear Mike Mansfield, who treated me, is setting up another practice in Bedford. Mike is a very experienced, thorough and professional physio. He's helped me with a number of specific sports related injuries. Mike, being an athlete himself, has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to sports rehabilitation and is keen to get you back to your peak performance level ASAP. Cheers Mike

A. K.

Over the last 3 or 4 years, after a recommendation, I have always gone to see Mike at Back and Body. My shoulder, knees, and back have all been successfully treated, after my over-enthusiastic gym workouts. Would recommend the clinic to anyone. Best of luck over at Bedford, I know you will make it a success.

N. B.

Saw Mike for several months due to calf pain and tightness. Was given some simple exercises to do between sessions which really helped and made a significant difference alongside the massages, stretching and acupuncture during sessions. Mike was very friendly and knowledgeable and highly recommend.

Just need to share my experiences. Ive suffered for many years with a shoulder injury and thanks to Shannan and Mike with there expertise im definitely feeling the benefits. Along with knowledgeable friendly staff i would recommend The Back and Body to anyone. Cheers guys

L. B.

Mike has a wealth of knowledge with the human anatomy. He always delivers a high standard of treatment showing care, compassion, confidence and competence. Ensuring the clients privacy and dignity at all times. I’ve been seeing Mike with my back problems for a number of years for acute and ongoing chronic episodes. Nicknamed “Magic Mike” He has always sorted my pain!! Thank you. 😊 I wish The Back and body clinic every success with their new clinic. My next follow up appointment is already booked.

D. M.

A few sessions with Mike Mansfield and my long time foot injury has drastically improved. After six-years I’m pain free and I can’t thank him enough. His expertise and support have been invaluable and the entire staff who work with him are lovely.

C. B.

My neck hasn’t felt this good in 20 years amazing results from all Rachel's work and programmes thank you. I have full mobility now and no neck pain allowing me to get on with my day to day without the distraction from the constant ache I had. The groin has also recovered fully with your help so feeling good. Thank you again and I will continue to recommend you and The Back & Body Clinic.

M. B.

As someone who works in the fitness industry, being able to train and teach are vital to me. When an injury reared its ugly head, I needed to be seen by a physio sooner than later. Despite it being the weekend, the Back and Body clinic responded via Facebook quickly and I was booked in within hours of my initial enquiry. The professionalism and skill they have is the best around. The treatment I have had for my elbow and hip over several months has been fantastic. Mike the physio has worked the rehab around my work and training and given exercises that are simple, yet effective. No long lists of time-consuming exercises. Understanding that taking time off is not a possibility has been valuable. The Back and Body clinic is full of lovely people who have passion for their client’s wellbeing. Couldn’t be more grateful as I am!

R. D.

Been there for 2 different issues and brilliant both times. Reception staff very welcoming as well as knowledgeable and empathetic physios. Great sports massage as well

The best physio clinic around bar none! I cannot recommend The Back & Body Clinic enough. After three years of back pain and having visited multiple physiotherapists in Ireland and England, I was seeing no improvements and my back pain was just getting worse. I had forked out for private MRI's and expensive consultant fees, yet nobody could help me. I went from playing football and golf every week to crawling out of bed in pain and only able to walk 20 mins before I had to sit down. Resigned to a life of painkillers and depression a friend recommended The Back & Body Clinic and I haven't looked back. My problem was quickly identified and a treatment plan implemented. They really are at the top of their game when it comes to understanding the body and its biomechanics. Rachel at Great Denham has been absolutely superb and I've never felt so assured that I'm in safe hands. My pain has reduced greatly with weekly sports massage and Pilates and gradually I'm able to enjoy my life again. Rachel has a very pleasant and professional manner about her and I'm always greeted with a big smile and leave feeling more confident and optimistic than the week before. I just wish it hadn't taken me so long to find them, I really can't thank them enough.

S. R.

Highly recommend Rachel from the back and body clinic. Saw her a few months back due to an overuse running injury. Rachel certainly knew her stuff and gave me exactly the treatment and advice I required. She had me pain free in no time! A very professional but friendly service from all the staff I met at the Great Denham clinic.

I have been seeing Mike at the Northampton branch for nearly a year now for fault diagnosis and rehabilitation for a long standing hip problem caused by a snowboarding injury when I was younger and never treated. Through his extensive knowledge and perseverance to come up with new ideas I have regained movement and strength that has allowed me to walk pain free for the first time in years and continue the sports I love without the need for surgery.

J. B.

Fantastic service and staff at this lovely clinic located in Great Denham. Highly recommend to anyone looking for physio and well worth paying opposed to waiting on the NHS for sub standard treatment and service. My thanks to Mike and his team for his continued support and top level care provided.

R. H.

Great sports massage service. Jazzy quickly identified my muscular issues and possible causes. After just one session I started to feel mobile again, combined with the strengthening and recovery stretches I was back to normal after a few more sessions and a couple of weeks treatment. Money well spent.

A. G.

Had a session with Mike. He was great, spotted problems that I thought were back related (according to a chiro) and identified it as a shoulder injury. He put me on a physio workout to strengthen what I need and the results are currently great. They dont make you sign up for 10 session, you just go when you need to. Highly recommend it.

H. M.

I have been using Mike now for several months to treat an ongoing niggling back and hip pain. I am a keen CrossFitter and it is so good to be treated by someone who has an in-depth knowledge of the complex movements. I have found Mike to be one of the most knowledgable physiotherapists I have ever met. If you need a physio then look no further.

S. W.

My experience with this clinic has been great, from the detailed and professional service received from Mike Mansfield, to the friendly and approachable staff on reception. I am having treatment for back and neck problems, and I have been seeing a good improvement since starting the sessions with Mike. I highly recommend this clinic.

I. M.

Had several consultations with Mike due to several injuries. Always very professional and friendly. Accurately diagnoses the problem and comes up with effective treatments. I’ve been very impressed with the service and will only use the Back and Body Clinic for physio therapy services.

P. S.

The Back and Body is a fantastic clinic with wonderful staff. After back surgery, they have helped me to live a full life and get back to the everyday things I struggled with before. I saw Rachel (who is now at Bedford) for 18 months. She is not only a great physio, but her friendly approach, positive attitude and expert advice made physio something I actually looked forward to. My loss at Moulton is Bedfords gain! If you're suffering and unsure if physio is the way to go or nervous about it, visit Back and Body - you wont regret it.

D. H.

Mike is an absolutely fantastic Physiotherapist, he has changed my life. The ongoing work i am having with him has made an enormous difference to my everyday life. The premises is nice and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

I. D.

Thoroughly impressed with every element of Back & Body in Gt Denham, Bedford. Mike Mansfield has been first class in sorting out my knee problems. Not only has he helped me get back to running, he's also educated me on how to avoid repeating the same issues. Could not recommend Mike enough ! Expert knowledge, re-assuring manner, and great results.

M. H.

I've received treatment from both Sam and Mike at the clinic and have found both therapists extremely knowledgable, experienced and helpful. I was quickly diagnosed and given a clear understanding of the issues and how to go about treating them. After using various therapy centres previously, I now wouldn't go anywhere else for treatment!

I had a sore back which was preventing me from working. I made an appointment to see Mike at the clinic. It was a 30 minute appointment and within 5 minutes Mike had diagnosed the problem and began treatment, leaving me in 50% less pain! Don’t suffer in silence, these Physios really know their stuff and will get you up and running in no time! I couldn’t recommend them too highly, excellent service.

H. I.

Rachel has been treating me for a while at the Moulton clinic and she has been a godsend. Initially when I was pregnant she helped me manage sever pelvic pain, later she helped me recover from torn cartilage in my knee and more recently managing the muscle pain in my back from hypermobility. Rachel is excellent at listening to my concerns and responding with a practical treatment programme that fits in with being a busy working mum, she take care to explain what she is doing and why and I always leave feeling 100% better. I couldn’t recommend Rachel or the new Bedford clinic more.

A. J.

Fantastic service and support in a fun, friendly and approachable environment. As soon as you walk through the door you feel at home, with very personable reception staff. Shannan quickly identified the problem with my back and worked efficiently to fix the issues. Very knowledgable and would recommend her and the clinic to everyone!!

Started off with a visit to A@E after a car crash in June last year. Then at least 10 visits to the doctors over the next couple of months. All telling me to take tablets for a muscle problem in my back. Couldn’t take the pain anymore so booked in to see Mike at Moulton. In the first 5mins he had put his hands on me more than all the previous visits to hospital and doctors. Within 10mins of being there Mike had me on the treatment bed and had digonosed me with a prolapsed disc sitting on my siatitic nerve. I had a number of visits pre and post operation. The care and the treatment was nothing short of exceptional. Without Mike, I think I would still be getting filled with tablets which had no affect with the pain at all. Can’t thank Mike and the team enough.

After years of not really doing a lot with regards to my posture , rehabilitations and general day too day struggles , I decided personally I should book in with back and body clinic as I know Jazzy is the only real person that knows my needs to lead a better quality life . She was so good in treatment addressing , where my problems lie , what needed too be done but mainly was positive in saying that if I decided I wanted to maintain my body than my lifestyle could Improve . The next morning I was so much more mobile and flexible but most importantly I felt 10x better within myself . Money well spent but more importantly it’s kick started my mental approach in wanting too do something about my diet , and mobility programme I’ve known Jazzy for 5 years and she is as professional as they come , very calming in her approach . Also the clinic was impeccable in how clean it was and friendly upon arrival . I will be back sooner rather than later . Mark Ducket - Bedford Town Football Club Manager

I have chronic pain due to a long term condition and the back and body clinic at Great Denham, Bedford has been amazing and my pain has reduced as a result. This is making a real difference to my life and I can’t thank them enough. Their professionalism and kindness from the reception staff through to the physios is second to none. I would recommend anyone to book an appointment !

R. F.

I am a serious recreational runner of over 20 years and visited the clinic with plantar fasciitis. Physiotherapist, Rachel Jones has been amazing in diagnosing the source of the problem and putting a plan together to eliminate the issue rather than mask it. She is incredibly compassionate and caring with vast knowledge. I am now running again and truly believe without the clinics expert team I would have been forced to hang up my running shoes. Thank you so much.

l. t.

Great service and fantastic helpful staff, always smiling and very knowledgeable! Brilliant Mike and his expertise has made me walk again without pain. Would recommend Shock wave therapy, certainly worked for me.

A. L.

friendly professional service, can't recommend Mike Mansfield enough, takes time to listen, make a thorough diagnosis and explains things in terms I understand! Sammi and Sam on reception, love seeing you both when I arrive, always kind, caring and always ready to have a chat no matter how much I distract you from your work (I'm sorry!).

A. B.

Always a super reliable place for any aches and pains, as well as just keeping the body in a general good condition. Mike and Rach are superb - so knowledgable, approachable and friendly - they always put me at ease on the table! They've saved me from a few minor injuries, as well as giving preventative exercises and sorting out some bad posture before it caused any real problems later in life. Great place!

P. B.

The saying “there is no pain without gain” is very true! Bad shoulders and hip have improved immensely thanks to Jazzy. Having said that, she is very attentive to your pain threshold. After 3 sessions I am very happy to report treatment is working and am much less restricted. Thank you Jazzy.

P. M.

A first class practice and service, provided by friendly and approachable staff from booking to treatment. Mike, my Consultant has not only solved my niggling injuries but provided me with the knowledge to prevent these happening in the future. would 100% recommend!

Life is a series of journeys. Some are short, some are long, some are boring, some are exciting, some turn out differently to what you expected. 12 months ago, I was despairing as my body appeared to be falling apart. I was convinced that my knee, that had been repaired many times over the last 30 years, was going to have to be replaced and my already replaced hip (22 yrs previously) was beginning to deteriorate too. My shoulder was stiff and grinding. Getting out of bed in the morning hurt and I was feeling all of my years. Two wonderful men fell into my life, and slowly and patiently they started to see what they could do with this mess of a body. It’s taken lot of hard work, and there have been some dead ends along the way. I can now squat with 65kg on my shoulders, dead lift 40kg and leg press 120kg. I could reel off many more stats. More importantly. My knee is no longer causing me concern, my hip is way more flexible, my back no longer hurts (nor my shoulder). I can run for the first time in I don't know how many years. I stand taller and feel physically better than I in an age The journey is by no means over, but I would like to say a public thank you to Darren Kent (wonderful, patient personal trainer at #virginactive) and Mike Mansfield (fabulous enthusiastic physio at #BackandBodyClinic) for not allowing me to give up and working miracles. If I can do it anyone can. Go on, what are you waiting for?

A. S.

The team at the Back & Body are very welcoming. They have a wealth of experience - from the physical physiotherapy and accupuncture through to pratical exercises and strategies which have helped me so much over the past few months! Great job!

T. C.

Absolutely fantastic physio & really know their stuff. I've spent 20 years with back pain & pain clinic at NGH suggested pain relief for the rest of my life - not an option. 6 months on & hardly have a twinge now & if i do i know what stretches to do instead of reaching for the tablets. Thank you so much.

M. C.

I went to see Mike for a back injury that I picked up playing golf. After just one session I couldn’t believe how much better it felt. I’ve been for a follow up and I’m now almost fully recovered. Mike has given me some exercises to help with rehab and I’ll be back on the course this weekend. I couldn’t recommend Mike highly enough.

l. s.

Excellent service. Well organised and efficient. Shannon has been excellent and her work and advise has reduced my pain and kept me mobile. Can’t recommend the service highly enough.

G. C.

I was referred to Mike for Physio after a car accident and could not speak more highly of him. He is very knowledgeable, understanding and patient which really helped during the early sessions. Would thoroughly recommend a visit

I was treated by Shannan. My neck was significantly improved after the first visit. Shannan has an excellent manner and is very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Shannan and the back and body clinic

T. S.

Some great people here who clearly know what they are doing. Prices are reasonable, and treatments are top notch, with noticeable improvements each time. Great, professional manner from the specialists, that lets you know exactly what's going on, and why. I'm very glad I went in.

K. J.

Love this place. Really kind and welcoming reception staff. Mike is extremely knowledgeable, listens and adapts - he’s also a lot of fun. I arrived self conscious and in pain I’ll be leaving with more confidence and not just pain free walking but pain free running!

J. W.

I have used many places in the past but Mike and the team are fantastic. Mike has great knowledge and always goes the extra mile with his treatment. I Highly recommend the back and body clinic

M. R.

I’ve been treated by Mike Mansfield a few times now. Always looked after really well. Always explains exactly what he is doing and why. Always a really positive can do attitude can’t recommend this place enough. Got me through a couple of hard to treat injuries.

V. H.

Excellent session with Mike last week he listens and he explains things very clearly he even has a sense of humour (bit odd in a physio ??)

J. B.

Have seen Mike for years for various issues. Guided me through 2 hip surgeries and rehabilitation for both. His knowledge and expertise is second to none. If you need fixing he’s your man.

W. W.

Very pleased with the politeness of staff, found Shannon, Mike plus reception staff very helpful & very pleased with the result. Would highly recommend to everyone! Nigel Worker.

Great service and really knowledgeable staff. They’re my go to when I’m in a mess and they always sort me out, while never recommending sessions if not needed. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

J. R.

This really is an excellent clinic; I am so pleased that they have opened in Great Denham. All the staff are incredibly friendly and make an effort to get to know you and the treatment has been absolutely first rate. I would recommend this clinic to anyone.

A lovely team of professionals.After my third visit to Rachel my mobility has improved.I would definately recommend this practise. I feel motivated and better after each visit.

Mike has helped me enormously with physio sessions for my neck. He explains everything so clearly. Fantastic physiotherapist and supported by an amazing team.

J. S.

I found Mike to be very knowledgable, supportive and understanding. An ongoing shoulder issue has been helped with great treatment and at home advice/ rehab. Cheers!

C. C.

Shannon is great. She has worked wonders for me with my back. And the advice you get given is spot on and really works. Thanks

I can thoroughly recommend this place. Very friendly service from the moment you walk through the door. They listened to my specific circumstances and tailored to suit me rather than just provide a standard fix. Sent me a personalised exercise plan afterwards using an app which is also great and simple to use. Very impressed.

J. H.

I have always been sceptical when it comes to physiotherapists but i can genuinely say that i was impressed! saw a huge improvement over 4 sessions and gives me hope I will be at 100% of where I should be, as long I keep up with the exercises! :)

N. F.

Booked in to see Mike with back problems. He's so friendly and pinpointed the problem straight away and after a couple of sessions it's already improving. Would definitely recommend. Nick

"Booked in for a back issue, on first assessment with Mike, he understood what had happened and through regular training and techniques that he has shown me, I'm making great progress and can't wait until I can do all the small things you take for granted."

N. C.

The whole experience left me feeling comfortable and appreciated throughout my treatment. Sorry that my treatment has ended, but I do feel great, at least the wife appreciates it.
