Back Pain Clinic
WELCOME TO THE PHYSIO BOX
Suffering from back pain is a leading cause of activity limitations, poor quality of life and increased absences from work.
In the UK, more than 100 million workdays are lost every year due to the detrimental effects of back pain on people’s lives.
At The Physio Box, we understand that if you have been suffering from back pain for months or years, you might have little hope or faith towards medical professionals.
Therefore, our goal is to help you trust our skills and believe in our ability to treat you.
We are proud to say that over the years, we have successfully treated hundreds of patients suffering from acute and chronic back pain. This has been a huge motivation for us to create a dedicated service to help more patients returning to a pain free lifestyle.
What To Expect At Your Appointment
A full physical assessment will be carried out to find the anatomical structures involved in the injury and the root cause of the problem. We will also use the most advanced technologies to assess postural factors which might contribute to the injury!
After the assessment, we will tell you everything you need to know about your diagnosis. This will include recovery time and the best treatments available to speed up the healing process. A written plan will be also sent to you for your own interest!
Based on your needs and clinical findings, we will implement a specific and tailored therapy plan to relieve your symptoms immediately.
Therapies Include:
Spinal Mobilisation:
Spinal Mobilisation is a manual technique that allows the physiotherapist to move a ‘fixed’ joint or bone. We will apply a specific force in a specific location in order to improve mobility by releasing tension and pain.
Spinal Manipulations:
Spinal manipulation is a similar technique but performed at higher velocity and force, which often causes a “click sound” on the joint. Our therapists are highly trained to perform manipulations safely and effectively to patients who might benefit from the technique.
Acupuncture:
We use Western acupuncture, an adaptation of Chinese acupuncture that draws upon current knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathology, and the principles of evidence-based medicine. This Promotes the release of chemicals in the nervous system, some of which are pain-relieving and healing and also results in the relaxation of muscles.
Shockwave Therapy:
Shockwave is a new medical device that promotes regeneration and reparative processes of tissues by the delivery of energy (waves) within the tissues. *Many other therapies will be used according to your needs and injury

Michael Clarke
Giuseppe has helped me recover from a number of rugby injuries over the last few years. Every time the diagnosis and prescribed treatment has got me back to rugby far quicker than originally forecasted by other physios. Having seen a lot of physios over the last 10 years, I always felt there was a “one size fits all” approach and the treatment seemed quite generic. This is Giuseppe’s point of difference, he truly takes time to understand the issue an recommended a course of treatment that always feels bespoke to me and my particularly injury. Would highly recommend!
Dana Burik
Giuseppe has guided me through post-shoulder surgery rehab, working toward getting back into competitive rugby. We worked closely together for about 7 months, seeing him twice a week for gym and rugby contact sessions as well as hands on treatment. I absolutely loved working with Giuseppe, making visible progress week by week. I couldn't have asked for a better person to guide me through my rehab process; Giuseppe didn't only pay attention to my shoulder, but also overall fitness and the mental aspect. All of this resulted in me getting back on the pitch stronger and fitter than ever. 12/10 would recommend him to anyone!
Stephen Taylor
I have had lower back pain on and off for years - recently the pain had worsened tremendously. After trying everything - chiropractors, other physios, even yoga, nothing was working. I came across Giuseppe and the Physio Box on Facebook and opted in for a 15 minute assessment. Straight away I felt relaxed in the clinic and hope that I could get this problem fixed started to creep in again... I went ahead with a care package and now the pain is completely gone... I can't thank Giuseppe enough - his healing hands are nothing short of magical. Thank you so much - 100% recommendation.

From initial consultation to 4 ongoing sessions lasting a month Giuseppe worked closely with me to fix my back injury suffered from sport. As well as treatment he showed me exercises and stretches to perform between my visits which has meant a thorough recovery. I would highly recommend Giuseppe.
