I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jason to anybody looking for a friendly and knowledgeable physiotherapist
Still having treatment for troublesome knee. Have every confidence that Jason will sort me out. He is really good!!!! Professional - knowledgeable and caring. Treatment mainly consisting of manipulation of joint. Definitely gives relief.
Jason is amazing physiotherapist with professional approach to all his patients ! I struggled with very bad back pain for years and thanks to Jason I know what was causing the pain and I can function with no pain now ! :) Can't thank him enough!
After suffering with rib and back pain for almost a year, wish I’d have gone to see Jason much sooner! Felt better after every session and found the acupuncture to be amazing. I have no pain now! Would recommend.
I had severe sciatic nerve pain and lower back pain resulting from a a lower lumbar disc bulge. I couldn’t sit and could only walk very short distances. I really could not see light at the end of the tunnel. And then I met Jason…….he has worked absolute wonders. His knowledge is unparalleled. He has empathy and compassion in abundance, providing a shoulder to cry on when I really felt like I was never going to pain free ever again. I am pleased to say I am so much better and will have absolutely no hesitation to see Jason again if I need it. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of physio. And on top of all that, he is a really nice guy.... (Show more)
Absolutely fantastic!…After suffering with back, and problem with my hip for several months I went for a handful of sessions with Jason and now I am back on track, and feeling positive again. If he can fix you he will, couldn’t recommend him highly enough, thank you!
Thoroughly recommend Jason. Skilled, professional practitioner. Thanks for sorting my sciatica problem.
I cannot recommend Jason at Focus Physio enough. When I started treatment for chronic sciatica I literally couldn’t walk or drive and had been referred to the pain clinic by the NHS. He explained everything to me and began a range of treatments including physio massage, stretching and acupuncture. He said I would be walking normally in 3 months (which I didn’t really believe) but here I am 3 months later walking the dog and actually enjoying it! I feel like I now have my quality of life back. He is an amazing physio and a really nice man too."... (Show more)
I contacted Jason when I was suffering severe back pain and after a few sessions of physio and acupuncture I am now pain free. A very informative chap who gave me excellent advice. I have no hesitation in recommending his services.
After suffering with debilitating back and hip pain for over 10 years I feel great, pain free and move easily after 6 sessions with Jason. He gave me a thorough examination and explained everything to me, it was the first time physio had bothered to do that! With treatment and regular exercises the transformation has been apparent week by week. I saw many physios over the years wo told me little could be done, one said it was 'in my head'. Jason encouraged me to push on and the rewards are life changing. I can enjoy the things I used to. Thank you Jason... (Show more)
I’ve suffered from an RSI related injury that has caused crippling pain in my hands, wrists and forearms for about 4 years now. After ~4 months of regular physio with Jason using physical manipulation, acupuncture and strengthening exercises I am finally pain free 95% of the time. I have been provided with a long term strengthening plan as well as further support if needed to keep me on track and to continue to improve my health. Jason instantly made me feel comfortable and I knew I was in safe hands. He is knowledgeable, reassuring and truly cares. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone! Can’t thank him enough...

Can’t recommend Jason enough! I was struggling with significant upper back, shoulder and arm pain, with muscle spasms and involvement of the nerves going down to my arm. It was impacting significantly on my day to day life and work. Had a few sessions with Jason, where he worked on my muscles and did some acupuncture as well, and within a few weeks everything was completely resolved. I couldn’t be more grateful and impressed with the results. Jason was always very professional, competent and following all the COVID safety measures. Thank you!... (Show more)
Highest recommendation possible. Had a long-term niggling issue that was affecting my sports performance and every day activities. Upon first visit I had received a very insightful diagnosis, a through explanation, an effective treatment plan and all delivered in a welcoming environment and with super-friendly service. Over the course of 8 weeks the services I received: Diagnosis, physio massage and stretching, acupuncture, home rehab equipment and exercises. My issue was fixed in time for an important trip and with the knowledge provided by Jason explaining the original cause, I have had no relapse at all and Jason, the skiing was perfect thanks to your help....

Jason was very good with me and sorted out my issues with no problem, definitely recommend
Top notch service from a top notch Physio. Sadly over the years I’ve needed more than my fair share of physiotherapy after prolapsing a disc 10 years ago. Ive tried many different Physios and Focus is by far the best. Their service combines physio, acupuncture and meaningful and targeted exercise regimes that really do make a big difference. Excellent.... (Show more)
A friend recommended Focus Physiotherapy as I was suffering from an episode of lower back pain causing associated numbness in my left leg. I found Jason to be a highly skilled physiotherapist and acupuncturist. The clearly explained targeted exercises he advised have also really helped too. Highly recommended.... (Show more)
I have always found Focus to be friendly and helpful. I have always been treated with the upmost care and have recovered quickly with the professional and knowledgeable treatment. I would not hesitate to recommend Focus.
Following a referral from my GP and advice from friends who have used this service, I found Jason, the director and lead practitioner to be a very friendly and knowledgeable person. My condition was diagnosed and sorted out quickly, definitely recommended.
I have been to see Jason on a number of occasions for different reasons and he has sorted the issue for me every single time. A highly professional physiotherapist and acupuncturist, he instantly puts you at ease and fully explains what treatments he is delivering. I cannot recommend Focus Physiotherapy highly enough and have recommended them to many other people.... (Show more)
