Highly professional yet friendly & encouraging. Successful treatment, what more could you ask for. Thank you!

Andy Cracknell is a brilliant physiotherapist. I was referred to him as a result of injuries caused by a car accident I was involved in two and a half years previously. My insurance company referred me to him.
My case was complicated by the fact that I had some longstanding problems which were caused by a brain haemorrhage when I was 20 (40 years ago).
Andy worked hard asking all about my injury, giving me massages, physiotherapy exercises, taping my shoulder and giving me loads of other treatments, always asking on my next visit how the last treatment had been and working off that. He was always a great listening ear.
If ever I came in with a different muscle strain etc. he would spend the whole session on that making sure I felt better. I always did.
My injury which I had been referred for just would not completely go away, though Andy’s treatments were nearly all effective for a while. We asked for extensions to my treatment twice which I am happy to say were granted.
He informed me about Aqua Circuits which is also run at The Harbourside Physiotherapy which really helps with my mobility, I continue with this.
Andy is a very professional, kind, lovely, efficient physiotherapist and he helped me very much. I still do the exercises he gave me which really help. I would highly recommend Harbourside Physiotherapy.

An incredible result in one short session. Last August I damaged the tendon in the front of my right shoulder. It pretty much stopped me from doing any of my sports and was painful nearly all the time. I had so much physio and did a massive amount of rehabilitation exercises, but nothing shifted it. In the end I gave up and accepted I was just going to have to live with it and get on with what I could do which wasn’t much. It even hurt leaning forward cycling. Over a year on and I decided to give physio another go as I wasn’t sure what else to do. I went to see Andy at Harbourside and he re-visited all the physio I had. He pondered for a while and then decided to look at something completely different and wondered if it was actually referred pain and the real problem was somewhere else. He examined my neck for a while, and then found a spot that sent a shooting pain down through the problem tendon at the front of my shoulder. He worked on it for no more than 5 minutes. He told me to come back again the following week to see what had happened. Unbelievably the following day it felt completely different. I had power back, full range of movement again and no pain at all. I went back the following week having done all the sports I used to do with no problem whatsoever. I told him it was completely sorted, and we were both amazed at the result. How did he do that? I guess just highly experienced and effective. Pretty much a miracle!
