Reviews of CBR Clinics Waterloo
A. M.
I can't recommend CBR Clinics enough if you are looking for a physiotherapist. The care I received from Bruno for my knee injury was amazing. His patience, empathy and good humour made each session a joy. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he always made himself available by email to answer any questions I had between sessions. It really felt like he cared about me making a full recovery which I'm happy to say I have :)
J. G.
Aran and Bruno are highly knowledgeable, patient and continuously supportive. The reception team have also been fantastic!

I was diagnosed with what's commonly known as Golfer's Elbow and was referred to Bruno at CBR. Within a few short visits to CBR my elbow was well on the way to being completely back to normal and is now fully recovered. Better still was that I also got another issue resolved that I hadn't even gone there for. I'd been living with tightness and pain in my left hip that I'd just accepted as getting older. It was difficult to lift my left leg over a low gate or fence. Bruno gave me a set of exercises and stretches to follow and within a few weeks my hip was massively better. Total bonus. The therapist, Bruno is great and the overall service from CBR is friendly, efficient and professional.

Really great care from the Bruno at the Calm Blue Room. I sprained my knee a few months ago and went in for physiotherapy in a lot of pain because CBR was well reviewed and convenient to my office. Immediately after the first appointment I felt much better and more confident in walking around, and my recovery has been much faster as a result of the exercises, and the effectiveness of the range of techniques that Bruno uses. Highly recommended!

I've had nothing but a great experience with CBR clinic's professionals - all of it online during Covid-19, but their guidance was as good as "hands on". They were very encouraging and have helped me to progress really well to get my broken wrist back to as near normal as it can be. Thoroughly recommend their services.

Bruno is an exceptionally skilled, patient and supportive physiotherapist. He helped me to start moving again after excruciating pain due to knee arthritis and hip/gluteus issues (too much sitting at work) almost two years ago. I have now moved to Scotland but visit CBR whenever I am in London for check-ups and some new stretching routines to help me avoid slipping into bad old postural habits.
D. O.
I regularly visit CBR clinics for checkups after my first treatment in March this year. Before this I was regularly experiencing back issues which have improved drastically! Bruno has given me exercise tips which have helped correct my posture and I always come away feeling much, much better. I have had treatments from Bruno and Nicholas who are both friendly, approachable and great at what they do - highly recommended all round!
N. E.
Highly recommended! My partner recommended me to head to CBR following some muscle pain i had been complaining about from weight training. I saw Peter who made me feel welcome as soon as we met and he really did give me the best sports massage I have ever had. Since my appointment my flexibility has improved and the pain I faced previously has now disappeared. Have already booked my next appointment....

I've been seeing Daniel and Bruno several times for physio sessions after my knee surgery. They have done an incredible job in accommodating my time requirements - I could only visit them out of office hours - even when this meant they had to stay until late.
The quality of their job was astounding and my knee is now back to normal.
I totally recommend CBR Clinics.
C. M.
Given this was my first major(ish) injury (Ankle sprain and ligament damage), I was unsure what to expect from physiotherapy - safe to say I had an extremely positive experience with Dan at CBR.
Right from the initial assessment, Dan was very attentive, ensuring that he fully understood the injury that I had sustained, where exactly I had pain and how severe it was.
Each visit, you could tell he was genuinely interested in getting me back to full fitness as fast, yet safely, as possible. The prescribed exercises were tailored to my preferences, with Dan demonstrating them in the session, before ensuring I could perform them correctly. When rehab stalled, he adjusted the routine based on my change in exercise levels, to ensure we stayed right on track.
Three months later and I've gone from no weight bearing on the ankle, to an hour of badminton & 10k runs with hardly any bother.
Thanks for all your hard work, enthusiasm and genuine care Dan, was great to meet you.
A. S.
I was recommended to CBR by my GP when I injured my knee and became unable to run. Daniel McGookin handled my case at the clinic and he was fantastic, both in the diagnosis as well as treatment! He taught me some really easy exercises that wouldn't stress my knee out further, and over a few months, helped rehabilitate it back to painlessness :)
K. S.
The service received at CBR clinics has always been fantastic. I've seen Bruno for physio and Danny for osteopathy and both have been brilliant. There is a professional but relaxed atmosphere at the clinic and unlike some clinics I've used before, there isn't a culture of seeing how many appointments they can get out of you/your insurance company, but a desire to fix the issue. Great service!
A. S.
I came to CBR Clinic with lower back pain. The first thing what I appreciated was really easy on-line booking and possibility to choose my physiotherapist according the little introductions in web site. I chose Dan McGookin and I couldn’t do better! I got my first ‘15 min conversation ‘ appointment very quickly and there my problem and following treatment was discussed. Daniel is really professional, kind, helpful and friendly. He gave me massages to eliminate the pain and exercises to strengthen my back. Our sessions were full of fun even that massages were painful! He kept me in a positive attitude and he gave me a lot of support which is so important when you are going through any injury and pain. based on my experience I can really recommend clinic and Daniel to everyone who suffer from back pain. Thank you so much ! 🤗

Seeing Bruno at Calm Blue Room Physiotherapy has been critical in helping me overcome an injury that had bothered me daily for months and have the confidence to return to a more active (and happier) lifestyle. The first time I went, it was absolutely amazing to me that in 45 minutes he eliminated pain I had felt for so long. Better yet, despite me pushing myself in skiing and other sports, he has kept the pain away. He is great at listening to your feedback and deciphering what you mean when you describe how things are hurting or feel better which is a real skill! I have recommended Bruno to all my friends and raved about the results!

Like Magic!
I had been suffering with broken sleep due to a very painful shoulder for almost 5 weeks. CBR was recommended to me and so I booked in a session with Bruno.
All I can say is that after 3 sessions Bruno had worked his magic and totally fixed and removed the pain. It improved dramatically after each session as he worked to correct my bodies failings!
His full body approach meant he was looking for the cause of the problem and his amazing skills achieved brilliant results - meaning I can now get a full nights sleeps again.
Bruno is really warm, welcoming, friendly and helpful with his technical advice as well as working some kind of mystical magic to fix me!
I would highly recommend booking a session with him.

Bruno is the best of the physiotherapists I have ever consulted. He combines all styles of therapies which I found to be really beneficial. He listens to all your problems carefully and creates a customised plan for the treatment. I am glad I went to him for the treatment.
They accept all major insurance covers. So that helps.
P. M.
I've been seeing Peter at the CBR centre in Waterloo and he is without doubt the best physio I have seen. (and I've seen many!) Had a prolapsed disc and knee surgery last year and he has consistently helped with the pain and the rehabilitation. Great hands, good practical advice and doable exercises. I'm nearly as good as new!
G. B.
Really friendly team who do listen. Each plan I was given was done in video form, enabling me to make sure that exercises were done correctly. A wholehearted thank you to Bruno. I would highly recommended to anyone.
S. G.
Location is easy to find. Currently the whole office complex is undergoing a major renovation. The consultation rooms are immaculate. Bruno is amazing. He has great bed-side manner, listens to you and really understands the body. He worked magic on my locked shoulder and has continued to treat me for about 2 months. I have also seen Chris (when Bruno was on holiday) and Peter (for my foot). Both were just a professional and knowledgeable as Bruno. Great admin service too. Highly recommend.
Z. N.
I had a nearly 2 year old ongoing problem in the right side of my neck. I always felt pain and discomfort whenever I was swallowing, sneezing or producing a high pitched voice.
I contacted the clinic, and saw Daniel McGookin (still seeing him at the time of review) . Someone, who is struggling with anxiety, and not so fond of communicating, I found him very easy going and relaxed, extremely professional and friendly.
He straight away identified the reason behind my problem (many doctors failed to do so in the past regarding this issue), and treated me at the clinic, and also gave me exercises for home.
Even just after one session I started to feel better, and now after only a few weeks, I seem to be fully recovered, with no pain and discomfort.
I can honestly recommend Daniel and the clinic to everyone who is dealing with any type of muscle pain and needs physiotherapy. He and the clinic are superb.
A. A.
I have been seeing Silvia Comi the Osteopath for the past couple of months and I can feel the improvement already. She is brilliant and really good with her job, she makes sure that your happy with treatment and the services of the session. She is genuine and very sincere with her job. I'm very happy with CBR service and I highly recommended.
c.
Bruno is a good listener and clearly very experienced. His treatment was effective and his advice well-informed. Most impressively, he acknowledged that my injury was minor and didn't prescribe any more treatment than necessary (just to book more appointments for more money). Will recommend.
E. M.
I've been using the CBR clinics since 2015 for osteopathy, physio and rehabilitation support after injury. I don't think without the help of Bruno and Danny I'd be in as fit as place as I am now. My right hip used to be a problem that I just had to manage, I barely feel it now! The therapists are polite, engaging, knowledgable and help me to understand my own body better. I'll keep going back!
S. H.
I have been seeing Nicholas Sargent at CBR Clinics for a few months. He was the first and only person to properly identify the reasons for my long term knee pain. He has truly changed my life with his excellent treatment, advice and patience. He was recommended by a good friend and I've since recommended him myself. I always feel the positive effect of his treatment immediately, which has improved my general mobility and overall wellbeing.
P. H.
CBR clinics is a great place for therapy. Being in Waterloo its a good location to reach although a bit tricky to find at first. Staff (Nicole) is super friendly and the treating rooms are very spacious with loads of equipment. Treatment never feels rushed, I feel good taken care of, no matter how silly my questions my be I always leave with a good feeling knowing whats going on and how to get better. I would highly recommend CBR clinics.
C. R.
I have been attending CBR in Waterloo for around a year and always have a great experience. I generally have sports massage and my main therapist is Peter occasionally Bruno. The whole set-up is professional, friendly and well organised. I always leave feeling de-stressed, lighter and refreshed. Thanks so much guys! Highly recommend!
S.
Marco Antonetto has been great in dealing with my sciatica pain. Not only does he understand and deal with the problem but always makes me feel more positive after each session. Thank you for helping me with my recovery!
L. K.
I would certainly recommend Marco as a fantastic Osteopath. He immediatly recognised my issue, and treated me within a matter of weeks. I feel the best I have in quite a while. I will not be looking elsewhere should I ever need to go back.
M. A.
Hey all,
I just wanted to say how pleased I am with my experience at CBR Clinics.
I was playing tennis and I twisted my back somehow. I literary couldn't move, sleep or even breathe without feeling a terrible sharp pain in my back. After 2 horrible days of unbearable pain I booked my appointment online and went to see Peter. He was really kind and helpful on the first 1 hour session. He asked me a couple of questions, then he massaged me and we did some exercises together.
Right after the session I was still feeling the pain, but was able to move (almost freely). With some exercises he gave me to do at home in a couple of days I could move more and the pain started to go away. After a week I had a half-hour session, but I was feeling so much better already. After some massaging, exercises and acupuncture (first time for me) and a couple of days later the pain was completely gone!
I have had similar problems a couple of times before (not as painful as this one) and I was booking massages. With massages It takes more time, more sessions and was not as efficient in my case. Physiotherapy with Peter fixed me very quickly!
Strongly recommend!
J. C.
I had been experiencing a lot of discomfort and pain in my hamstrings. Bruno was recommended by one of the PT's in my gym, and I booked a session with him.
Within the one session, Bruno had diagnosed the problem and recommended various options for me to do to alleviate the pain. I followed all three and am no longer feeling any problems with my muscles.
Bruno was very helpful & knowledgeable and I would not hesitate in recommending him.

I’ve been suffering with a bad back for over twenty years. I’ve been through the NHS, MRI’s, epidural block injections (three times), physiotherapy (TWICE) I’ve tried swimming, yoga, Pilates, acupuncture and bought untold contraptions. I WAS SICK OF HEARING ‘Strengthen your core’. No one or no thing has ever been able to correctly diagnose what my problem is, or help me be pain free, I’ve lost count of the amount of time off work. My back ‘went’ yet again and I eventually made it into a CBR clinic. I’m so glad I chose to see Daniel. Straight away he told me what he thought my problem was, and outright told me that my recovery to pain free would take a long time as it had gone on for so long. I’ve been trying to work out why this physiotherapy has worked this time and not previous times, and its because Daniel is a good physiotherapist! He listens, he’s not rushed and could see my fitness level (lack of it) and started with a slow achievable program for MY specific ability, that I could actually stick to, not so hard that I would just give up like the other times, and I could see progress. Not coming from a sporting or very active background, I didn’t feel intimidated and found Daniel very friendly which helps immensely. More problems were pinpointed and for the first time in twenty years I knew WHERE my pain was coming from, which is extremely important when you are in severe pain every day, it helps you come to terms with the diagnosis. I’ve attended Daniels clinic now for three months and although not quite yet pain free, I’m fitter than I have been in years, I can move, walk my dogs, and my pain has gone from 8/10 every day to around 2/10. I don’t need painkillers anymore. It’s like a miracle for me after suffering for so long, and being misdiagnosed by so many so-called pain experts. I feel so lucky to have found the right practitioner for me, and can’t recommend Daniel at the clinic highly enough. Thank you
J. “. C.
Bruno is fantastic, well worth every penny you spend on going to him. Recommended to me by a friend who has had major back surgery. His care is thoughtful and attentive. He uses his range of skills to really find and solve the root cause of the problem, whether that takes 1 or 5 sessions. My back is a million times better thanks to his magic hands and the exercises he has got me doing at home.
S. M.
I’ve been coming to CBR clinics for over a year now having first come with a complex heel injury requiring physio. Having had great service and treatment, I now come for regular sports massage/physio treatments with Nicholas Sargent who has helped me achieve overall better sports and physical performance for my squash, cycling and gymnastics training.
Highly recommended for injury treatment or prevention.
M. B.
Daniel McGookin provided really good support throughout the 3 weeks of physio sessions. Great selection of take-home exercises and advice that helped me recover and get back to playing sport a good week before I thought I’d be able to. Would definitely recommend him to anyone who’s looking for top quality treatment.
M. B.
I have a previously diagnosed mild scoliosis in my back ,which has caused intense pain of trapped nerves leaving me unable to move or sleep easily. Marco Antonetto at CBR Clinics helped from the very first session with extreme pain in my upper back, shoulder, and arm. I left the clinic feeling able to function normally, and was able to sleep through the night, which had not been possible for the three nights before. Healing continued over the next couple of appointments. Marco is now my first choice of practitioner when i need quick relief from backpain.
C. D.
I attended the clinic due to long standing issues with my back following a motor bike accident. Charlotte quickly identified the problem areas and worked on relieving the pain and general discomfort I have. After a treatment I can honestly say I felt the improvements in my mobility and it has lasted.
Charlotte is a great practitioner, listens and is always cheery.
Many thanks and see you again for more!
R. C.
Would 100% recommend. I have been going to Daniel McGookin for the last 3 month or so with a Quad injury from playing Gaelic Football. From Day 1, he has been amazing. He clearly has alot of experience working with sports people (very stubborn ones like me), and was very focused on getting me back to sports when the time was right. He even geared my physio specifically towards getting back to Gaelic Football, which was amazing and I was really impressed with seeing as its not a locally well-known sport. I felt at ease, and knew that I was in good hands with him. I have recommended him and cbr to my teammates, and if (or when, lets be real) I need a physio again in the future, I will 100% be back.
B. K.
I went for a massage with Peter and was very impressed!
He knew exactly where the problem areas where just looking at my posture and the position of my legs whilst I was laying down.
The treatment was very effective and I left the clinic feeling much lighter.
Excellent skills and customer service, I couldn't recommend him enough!
A. A.
This is a fabulous place with the focus firmly on clients. It is hidden away just outside Waterloo, but the treatment rooms are spacious and well equipped and the practitioners were excellent at identifying the best option for me. My therapist (Nick) was very effective and pragmatic at treating me, giving me practical exercises and also with a real focus on getting me active again. Would definitely recommend highly.
A. P.
Very knowledgeable practitioners providing varied treatments and comprehensive regimes for post-injury rehabilitation. Alesia has given me excellent treatment to recover from a back injury sustained during gymnastics training, as well as massage and manipulations to keep the rest of me in good condition. It is particularly nice to find sports therapist/physio who is familiar with gymnastic and acrobatic techniques/manoeuvres: she has also offered excellent guidance, advice and exercises to help prevent me from injuring myself in the future whilst training gymnastics

I have suffered from a bad shoulder injury for many years.
I have been diagnosed with Calcific Tendinitis / Bursitis and had a painful steriod injection in the past which only removed the pain but did not cure or improve my condition.
An Orthopedic consulted advised to either have more injections, which was not an option due to its side effects, or have a surgery to remove the calcium deposits but this would result in a 6 month recovery period.
Thanks to a friend in Brazil, I heard about Radial Shockwave therapy and contacted CBR clinics to find out if that would be suitable to my condition.
I spoke directly with Mr Bruno de Jongh who assured me that such therapy would be very appropriate to my condition.
I was taking anti inflammatory tablets on a daily basis to help me get by. After my first treatment, not only did I leave the clinic with no pain but also with a much improved shoulder movement range.
After 3 tratments I can state that my pain has gone from a 9 to a 2 level.
Bruno has been very professional and also understands my special needs due to my work.
I highly recommend CBR clinics
P. M.
I'm a dancer/actor and gym-goer and always visit Bruno when I have any injury or soreness. Over the years he has successfully treated lower back pains, shoulder injuries and tendonitis of my ankles, knee pain as well as providing general all over massage when I have worked a little too hard.
The addition of Bowen and Emmett techniques as well as Shiatsu massage to his physiotherapy skills make him excellent value for money. His passion for his work really shows too which is why I keep going back.
He is very easy to talk to and I leave each session feeling refreshed and my body restored and balanced. Throughly recommended.
F.
Bruno is quite simply a genius. I rave about him to my friends and colleagues if they complain about any sort of muscular pain, and they always rave about him back at me after their first visit. I had major back surgery several years ago and before I started seeing Bruno I was in pain most of the time, it had become normality for me and not even worthy of comment most of the time. I've been seeing Bruno about every 2 weeks for the last couple of years and he's completely changed this; I used to take 2 different types of painkillers several times a day and now I can't remember the last time I need these. His knowledge of how the musculoskeletal system works is impressive, and his practise is constantly evolving as he learns new techniques and hones his skills. I'm moving house soon and one of the thoughts when choosing a new area of London to live in was 'can I still get to Bruno from here?'. Really excellent, can't recommend his services enough!
L. T.
I saw Marco Antonetto at CBR Clinic on Waterloo Rd. He treated my pregnancy related sciatica and other associated aches! He was really great in helping to alleviate the pain and explaining the issue. He gave me some home exercises to try also. Really helped me through the pregnancy and I would (and indeed have) recommended him to others!
R. H.
I fractured my fibula playing football a few years ago, and haven't been able to play properly without pain since. I booked to see Daniel McGookin not thinking there was too much that that could be done, but within a few appointments the old injury is back to full strength. A mixed of first rate knowledge and tailored exercises made for swift progress, being back playing pain free after a couple of months. Very pleased with the results.
V. L.
I am always slightly sceptical when I try somewhere new but CBR clinics was fabulous. I had a session with Bruno who immediately identified what was causing me pain and within a couple of hours all the pain was gone! A very professional environment where you are instantly put at ease by the personable approach. I would recommend Bruno in a heartbeat!
F. B.
I find the blue room treatment very helpful and that really made a difference to my on going problem with wear and tears in regard to my body .
i would definitely recommend the Blue room to others and I'm very gratefull to have been referred to Bruno at the blue room by Daren Morton the personal trainer that i work with at the local gym near where i live to try to maintain a good level of fitness and physical health awareness. Bruno was in my opinion very quick in dealing with the problem that i had and after 2 session i started to feel the difference for the better.
and i find the combination of exercising and visiting the blue room very helpful to my very ethic life .
thank you

I am entirely grateful to the CBR team to bring me back on my feet. I was diagnosed with slipped discs /sciatica in 2011. This year I had the issue coming back, but ignored it until the moment I collapsed in pain at home. After 2 weeks in hospital, I was barely walking - was in wheelchair and later tried to walk on crutches. As my company insured me privately with BUPA, I was so glad to find physiotherapy practice close to my house. Appointment with them was quick and smooth. First day I met Peter and the session was great - I could walk better after the acupuncture. However, I had to continue the sessions. The next day I met Bruno - God Bless, I could straighten my back. Then Greg - who helped me wake up the next day with much less pain. I met Nick who advised me further exercises to do at home... I met literally the entire team of qualified experts couple of times each. All of the physiotherapists will explain exactly what you have, why is there, what potentially could be the reason and help you understand that you are not alone! I can assure you that all of them know what they do, have amazing and comforting approach, gentle with your pain and do everything possible to help you. These guys genuinely do everything to help remove your pain, but also fit you in their schedule even when it's holiday time. I am thankful to CBR that I can walk again (Bruno literally showed me how to sit and stand up - funny, that 30 + years I was doing this in a very wrong way:)), I am active - doing sports without a pain and even forgot I was having this issue. The team even followed up to make sure I am doing well - and I owe them apology that I am having busy schedule and I didn't return back earlier :) God Bless the entire team of CBR - sincerely! No doubt they will help you, give 'em a call and arrange your appointment. They will wait for you with a smile on their face!!! P.S. My mom is sending you greetings too CBR team :) Love, Deniz

I visited CBR clinics for physio with Dan and I highly recommend him. I had pulled a tiny muscle in my lower back that left me extremely limited on movement. Dan helped to restore movement, explained exactly what happened and how to avoid it happening again and also would show me various exercises to help strengthen the area.
H. G.
Nick Sargent is an excellent osteopath working at CBR Clinics.
Nick has an impeccable manner and is incredibly professional - I immediately felt at ease with him. It is clear that his skills have been honed through experience as he was quickly able to identify tight muscles in my body.
I would certainly recommend his services to my contacts.
A. Z.
I have been to see Danny at CBR and have to say he is absolutely great.
I initially went for a sports massage, given Danny is an Osteo he used pressure point treatment on me and worked wonders.
In addition to the massage, Danny gave great advice on my training at the gym to minimise injuries further.
Definitely recommend CBR, you are in very good hands with them.
J. A.
I was recently treated by Danny Mace, one of the osteopaths at CBR Clinics. I have had multiple problems with my shoulder after surgery. His wide range of skills and techniques really made a difference even after the first session! I will definitely be having further treatment from Danny in the near future.
M. M.
I came to the CBR clinics after a recommendation from my gym, fitness for less - Southwark with a lower back problem, which I had been told by the doctors and NHS physiotherapist was a herniated disc and after weeks of no improvement with the prescribed treatment I decided to seek help at the CBR Clinics.
I first saw Bruno as the physiotherapist, who after consultation recommended I see the Osteopath Charlotte but gave me some strength exercises for my core and we maintained a monthly catch up and review. Bruno is extremely reassuring and very professional, he has a wonderful demeanor and really knows what he's talking about, within 4 weeks my strength had improved with the homework I was assigned greatly, so much so, that as a runner, I was able to extend my running distance greatly.
I started to see Charlotte on a weekly basis. Charlotte was able to tell me that my so called slipped disc had healed and that the pain I was experiencing was down to extremely tight muscles still compensating for the injury experienced a long time ago. She worked with my back and legs to help retrain the muscles and spinal alignment. She is now happy to see me on a maintenance basis or as and when I need to. Charlotte is also extremely professional and very very good at what she does, especially for man handling me around! I even sent my husband to see her with his back problems!
Thanks to them both, I ran my first 10km a couple of weeks ago in 1:05:32, which is amazing for me and would not have been possible with their treatment, education and support.
Thank you so much guys - I'm very grateful, as it hubby!

Very useful having a physiotherapist who competed in the same sports to help diagnose and treat me. Professional and expert treatment and gave useful insights in to preventative measures as well as quickly resolving a painful condition. Very convenient location, close to Waterloo/Southwark stations. Easy to use online booking system. I cannot fault them. Highly recommended.
K. S.
the Calm Blue Room is a place where miracles happen and Bruno is Jesus in there!!
I went to see Bruno over 8weeks ago about a re-occurring shoulder injury that I picked up boxing and after 6weeks of regular visits and following Bruno's rehab exercise- I've got back over 85% strength in my right shoulder. I know if I followed his advice exactly as he requested I would probably be a 100% now.. The man has healing hands; I have and would most definitely recommend the Calm Blue Room!
D. S.
When I first came to see Bruno and Danny I was a man in a desperate state. I'd been seeing various Physios, Chiros and Osteopaths for 3 years but none had been able to find the root cause of an ongoing lower back and right leg issue.
Bruno initially and then Danny thereafter have been incredibly diligent in their approach and worked through a number of solutions, identifying the cause and putting together all manner of treatments including Shockwave Therapy. Within weeks I was back to running and months on I'm able to train as normal. I'd highly recommend Danny and all the team and the only physios in London I would recommend.
J. K.
I had a really damaged and inflamed achilles tendon which felt as if it was about to snap completely. After the first treatment the pain was gone whilst my foot was at rest. 4 treatments and 6 weeks later I was back playing tennis.
Bruno is very professional and I would (and have) recommend him to anyone.

Charlie Briers is a magic Physiotherapist, I am lucky enough to benefit from his services.

I found calm blue room after suffering a football related injury, knee strain, but being a forty year old man I thought I could ride it out, along with all the other injuries I had accumulated.
Talked to Bruno over the phone, he instantly gave some good advice and reassured me, that if I came to see him I would be in expert hands.
He waxed lyrical about the Emmet Technique, so thought why not. I was surprised at first how unobtrusive the style is. Barely any pressure. Initial thought was; I'm paying for this!
After the first session I could feel my body was different. Actually my Knee still hurt, but shoulders, back and neck felt relaxed, and this continued for days.
It takes time to mend, but if you had a chipped tooth you would spend hundreds on fixing the blemish. Consider the rest of your poor bones. They may not be visible but they suffer too.
I have been back 6 times now and will continue.
Thanks Bruno
C. E.
Bruno has a wonderful and refreshing approach to treatment. There was no desire to push an expensive series of appointments - instead he wanted to reduce the pain and discomfort as quickly as possible. His approach alleviated the pain almost instantly. Would definitely recommend.
C. F.
I went to the CRB clinics after years of pain in my shoulder, back and neck from a congenital problem that other health proffessionals had had difficulty to treat. The CRB clinic in Waterloo were very welcoming, patient and listened to me regarding my symptoms and health problems. I was assigned to Danny who immediately understood why I was in pain and what he could do to help. He has methodically treated my problem areas while making sure I understand what he is doing and how this will help to reach the final aims. After a very short time I am experiencing big improvements and finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel!
A. J.
My trainer recommended Danny Mace to me for a back problem I've had on and off for a couple of years. Danny is friendly and professional with a knowledge of anatomy that got to the heart of the problem on my first visit. With his great help and advice I'm no longer in pain and have practical tips to stay healthy. Definitely recommended!
B. G.
I was superbly treated at CBR for a calf injury acquired while running, and taught much about how to avoid other injuries in the future. What a great find! They really understood my injury and had me back on my feet in time to enjoy my holiday. Would strongly recommend to anyone with similar needs for quality, capability and affordability too :-) Thanks Bruno !
L. M.
My two appointments with Alesia went really well. Alesia provided me with precise exercises to strengthen the exact muscles solicited in ankle sprains, helped me to better understand how injuries happened and how to avoid them. Would highly recommend for finely tuned advice!

Top qualified phisyo therapist, second to none attention and dedication, you feel treated like a proper patient, massive attention to the details, any kind of feedback and post-treatment assistance. She really care about your health and recovery. Deeply and strongly recommended

I came to Bruno early 2012 with a series of increasingly handicapping pains in my right hip, my right knee, the right hand side of my neck and my right arm + extremely painful achilles. In the last few months I had had to stop jogging, I would experience increased pain after swimming, and had had altogether to give up on my years-long weekly yoga sessions as a result of those pains.
Before coming to Bruno I had seen a few physios, and a therapist, who had all been able to relieve one or more of these ailments, but were never able to treat them all at the same time. Also, none of those were any helpful when it would come to giving me useful exercising tips to treat myself between sessions.
Bruno did both the Emmet and Bowen techniques on me. To date I did a total of 6 sessions with him. I felt only light relief after the first session, but consequent partial relief thereafter. An unexpected side effect of two those sessions, was an utterly incredible boost of energy after sessions 2 and 5 (energy boosts I must confess I had never felt before in my life - and could become addictive) that lasted for a good few days each time.
With the help of finally having been diagnosed with a hip bursitis + tendinitis in my hip during the treatment with Bruno, after the 6th - and so far final - session with Bruno, incredibly, he was able to relieve ALL of my pains, including a very old knee pain that I had simply given up on. I was able to resume a light program of exercises for the first time in a long time, including running the week after that final session!
Bruno was also extremely helpful in giving me useful exercises which I duly perform every day.
The overall impression Bruno gave me each time I saw him, was of someone utterly committed to helping me, an intent listener exuding kindness. As he told me once, his job is sometimes to put his detective hat on to find out how to treat someone, and in my case he came nothing short of being Mr Holmes. Thank you so much Bruno. Whilst I hope I NEVER have to see you again I know that if I have to, you will be the light at the end of, this time, a short tunnel.

Over the last two years I've undertaken a considerable amount of fairly intensive mixed pysical activity and training. As a result i've also developed a big interest to ways of avoiding injury and maintaining mobility .
With all that In mind i've hadn't been able to a avoid a recurring injury to my knee, which for about a year though stretching and massage i've been largely able to take care of myself.
The last time I felt it begin to worsen however, fearing the worst, I decided to have it looked at. Luckily I saw a couple of reviews online for CRB and booked an appointment with Bruno.
Not only is Bruno an extremely competent practitioner, he's also able to explain and discuss issues at ease to try and create better understanding of what's going on. Something I personally find a huge advantage and an obvious indicator of somebody who knows what they're doing!
Amazingly he also didn't encourage repeat sessions, and after just two visits my knee is back to a point where I'm able to protect and hopfully strengthen it assisted by the exercises Bruno gave me.
Oh, and I never had to stop training once. Massive plus.
With honest gratitude to Bruno and all the team at CRB. Keep up the good work!

Daniel has been a great help with my lower back pain - I've been to other clinics previously and it took 7-10 sessions to get where I have in 3 with CBR. He keeps everything simple and understandable. Couldn't recommend them enough.
F. J.
The treatment I received at CBR Clinics by Bruno was wonderful. Having suffered for many years with imbalances in my body which resulted in pain, the professional treatment I received has cleared my problems within 4 sessions. I can happily recommend CBR at Waterloo to anyone who needs help. Thank you ! Fiona

I had been tying to re-habilitate my ankle for years after an accident at work. I had had surgery on it but could not get myself back to live-able fitness.
I visited Charlotte the Osteopath at CBR clinics. She was fantastic. She was thorough and tailored a personal plan specific to my needs. I found her to be interested in my issues and knowledgable in her field of work. She has got me running again properly and has helped me in my day to day life and work. Thankyou Charlotte!
D. L.
Silvia Comi is professional and experienced. She is friendly, gives fantastic advice and resolved my knee pain (caused by tight hamstrings, glutes and poor hip mobility).
Listen to her advice and do the exercises and you will get results!

I am a personal trainer working in the waterloo area and was introduced to Bruno by a colleague. I have seen many therapists over the years about a reoccurring hip problem with not a huge amount of success. Bruno diagnosed the problem very quickly and with a combination of Bowen and Emmett techniques sorted it in two sessions. I can honestly not praise him enough and have recommended him to the majority of my clients.
H. v. S.
I saw Alesia Vazmitsel at CBR clinics while I was training for my first marathon. Alesia's advice was spot on. She demonstrated and helped me to master excersises to strengthen the key muscles and treated an injury very effectively that could probably have gotten out of hand if left untreated. I highly recommend Alesia and CBR clinics.

Deep Tissue Message - Excellence
I would like to thank you Silva for the great deep tissue massage. Silva is professional, friendly, dedicated and competent. Silva is very knowledge that able to quickly identified which area that contributing to pain.
I would definitely recommend CBR Clinics to anyone! Thank you.

Have attended for several treatments with Nicholas Sargeant at CBR's clinic opposite Waterloo station as a result of developing calcific tendonitis in my shoulder. This included three sessions of shockwave therapy.
Before the treatment started I could not lift my arm up or to the side at all – following the shockwave therapy I now have full movement back and the pain has gone completely. I would certainly recommend Nick and CBR clinics as they provide excellent value treatment and follow up support at a convenient central London location.
R. L.
Bruno is a very gifted therapist. Whenever I have had issues or pains he has been able to ease them almost instantly. He is unique in the respect that he combines a collection of techniques.
I thoroughly recommend him.
J. K.
I attended following a running knee injury. As well as helping get over the injury, working with Peter changed my whole approach to running to focus more on strength and conditioning not just mileage. I'm really impressed with the results - no return of the injury and it has definitely improved my running.
K. E.
As a raving fan of the Emmett Technique I was pleased to discover Bruno at the Calm Blue rooms is an Emmett therapist. This extremely effective treatment of non-invasive light movement combined with Bruno's gentle, understanding and professional manner put an end to my neck, shoulder and back ache. I highly recommend Bruno.
N. C.
Extremely professional, kind and caring, with pain relief treatment and advice on appropriate exercise.
J. C.
I have been seeing Daniel at CBR for a couple of months now for plantar fasciitis and achilles tendonitis and the service I have received has been amazing. Daniel is incredibly knowledgeable and professional and my pain has reduced dramatically after only a few sessions. I would recommend CBR clinics and particularly Daniel to everyone.
M. T.
Peter (Piotr) is the best physiotherapist I have ever been treated by. And having had back and shoulder problems for over 20 years I've seen quite a few. He has more or less fixed my problems now and also given me very effective exercises to do at home. Highly recommended.
A. K.
I've been here for two different issues over 5 years and each time been sorted out through the knowledge, kindness, good humour and patience of the staff. My wife has also been met with same high levels of friendly professionalism and expertise. I very highly recommend CBR Clinics.
T. S.
I began working with Alesia after contacting CBR with a neck injury. Since the initial consultation Alesia has been very detailed driven ensuring every possible cause had been accounted for. No appointment has ever felt rushed with the cause and effects clearly explained along the way. It's an educational experience where I leave knowing and understanding more about my body and how to take care of it each time.
M. P.
This is a real massage to fix problems! No pain no gain and it really does work! Cannot recommend enough. I have only seen Bruno who is instantly likeable and knows his stuff. Clean relaxing environment in Waterloo.
S. P.
Having suffered with constant and chronic pain due to hypermobility for the majority of my life, finding Bruno was a godsend. The Emmett technique works wonders and I just being around Bruno with his calming presence somehow makes me feel better. I have since had oste appointments with Charlotte who also works wonders and seems to really want to help.
I've tried so many treatments over the years and this is without a doubt, one of the best. I just wish I could afford to visit more often.
A. P. a.
Great service from my physio Daniel McGookin, saw huge improvements from my starting point and provided me with a prevention plan for future. I was also impressed that he was right at the end of an email/phone if I had any questions or issues - fab customer service and would definitely recommend!
O. O.
I was having issues with my neck. Bruno sorted it out within a few sessions by working on various different parts of my upper body. He seems very knowledgable and enjoys his practise. For seem reason it's also a very relaxing experience... Have already recommended him to a few people (none of whom have anything wrong with them yet)
A. P.
If you're interested, I had a problem with my right knee and hip...an old injury that kept flaring up every now and again. This became more frequent, but as I wanted to believe that I'm a spring chicken, and only 40...! ..;) I ignored it. Around that time when it was first really bugging me I met Bruno, who gave me a card and I promised I would book in to get it looked at. I didn't.. I waited a year... A year of walking with a problem that flared up and disappeared and flared up again and ultimately caused me a lot of discomfort throughout...but I kept on ignoring it. What could anyone possibly do to ease this swelling/pain/inconvenience which interrupted my training, exercise, heel wearing etc. Surely nothing could be done....
FINALLY, when it was really bad, I booked in to see Bruno, almost a year to the day that I first met him. I can honestly say I was staggered. The first session of Emmett technique resulted in me waking the following day feeling like I had a new leg. The second session of Emmett and some Shiatsu left me in a state of new connection with the floor as I walked, some lessening in water retention (LADIES!!) and the third session able to move in a much more receptive and less tentative speed, in ways I haven't been able to in a long time. (I'm an actress so your ability to move your body according to the need of the situation is important) As a human being the fact that I am moving without the pain that I had become used to is like MAGIC.
The lesson of this story is.. don't think you HAVE to accept the pain because actually Bruno knows what to do, and resets the body to a point that I didn't know was possible. (and I have a background that really should be open to accepting these kinds of possibilities) The Calm Blue Room isn't a building. It isn't the little room you walk into when you go to see Bruno, its the place you walk into after he has worked on you.
My only regret is that I waited a year, because I didn't have any concept, before I first went to see Bruno, that anything could make a difference. Book Now! My sessions with Bruno continue. Athene xx
K. O.
The Calm Blue Room is the perfect place to go if you are in need of a massage! Bruno is fantastic and after every massage, I feel fabulous and my legs feel lovely and light, I would recommend them to everyone, you will love it!

Really appreciate that i could meet and have a 15 minute free consultation to discuss what i wanted out of our sessions and understand that we were on the same page.
