Perfect Balance Clinic - Harley Street Reviews

Write a Review

I went to see Stephen Mankinde after spending over 3 years without being able to walk, let alone run, due to acute nerve pain in both feet. Having seen countless doctors, gone through surgery which made the pain worse, I was told I would never walk normally again. I went to see Stephen without any real expectation since other osteopaths/physios were also clueless. Meeting him has simply been life-changing. After our first appointment, my pain levels reduced dramatically and over the course of the following months I was able to start leading a normal life again. I now run again 3 times a week and am well on my way to complete recovery. I could not recommend Stephen highly enough…... (Show more)

I have been a athlete since I was a child so I have seen many many people over the years, and recently had a baby and have had issues with my back etc since. I am overly impressed by the level of knowledge and professionalism of perfect balance. I’ve come to them over the years for many different issues and have NEVER walked away without the problem being fixed. I couldn’t recommend more and wish I had found them so much sooner. Completely life changing. Thank you so much... (Show more)

I've been going to Perfect Balance for almost a year now for various different running and martial arts injuries and have always had an incredibly positive experience and seen immediate improvement. I see Stephen Makinde who's a magician! He's always able to get rid of the pain and give effective exercises to prevent further injury. He's also incredibly warm and personable. I'd recommended him and the clinic to anyone who needs fixing!... (Show more)

Highly recommend Stephen Makinde who has successfully treated my arm that had been painful for 3 years and had a scar tissue. I only needed one session with Stephen and the pain was gone! Thank you! Stephen is professional and highly knowledgable.

I went the first time to see Stephen Makinde with chronic shoulder and neck pain. I've had it for a few years. I saw many doctors and tried all kinds of treatments that were temporary. The maximum releif I got was just a few days and then the pain is back. I was very happy with the results I had from my sessions with him. It's been 6 weeks since my first visit and I can say 80% of the pain is gone and we started working on minor issues along side treating my shoulder. I appreciated how responsive he was because I had to travel and he made his best to fit me into his busy schedule. I owe my recovery to him and I'm grateful a friend of mine recommended him....

Stephen was fantastic from day one. A master of his craft, and incredibly knowledgable, he nevertheless was always happy to talk in simple terms about the reason why we were doing a particular exercise or treatment. He always made me feel comfortable, relaxed and well cared for.

Booked via the website and got confirmation instantly of my appointment which was really good to start. I then had to change my appointment and the process was so simple and easy. I instantly got through to the bookings team and made the change. When I got the session, it was really easy to get to and find. The osteopath was able to diagnosed the issue straight away. He gave me some exercises to do and scheduled another appointment. Highly recommended... (Show more)

Having suffered from back pain for over 12 years and trying many different physio's, osteo's etc. I was starting to give up on ever being able to find someone that could really help me and stop the back pain I was suffering from which all stemmed from lifting a heavy chair at work and putting my back out and having a bulging disc as a consequence. One Sunday morning I woke up in such agony and in dia need of seeing someone and having googled and trying a few numbers with no luck I came across Perfect Balance and they were absolutely amazing, I got booked in within a few hours and after the very first treatment I was starting to feel better with the pain dramatically decreased. Twelve years on I have used PB for various different, back, neck, shoulder issues and I have always only needed no more than two sessions at any one time of having issues and it then clearing up for a long period of time before another flare up. Due to such positive experiences I have since recommended PB to many different friends/colleagues/family members who have all had treatment at PB and are now loyal clients also, Impeccable service, highly qualified team of therapists who are dedicated to making you better as quickly as possible. Would recommend to anyone.... (Show more)

I have been treated at Perfect Balance Clinic for a range of problems, often when I have sought medical advice and have just been sent away with painkillers. Being treated at the clinic has helped address the route cause of problems that I have had, so rather than numbing pain with tablets I have been able to receive treatments including acupuncture which have helped to provide long term pain relief. The great thing about visiting an exceptional healthcare professional is that they not only treat the cause but help you to become part of the long term solution by providing aftercare advice to change behaviours so that you don't end up in the same position again. When I visit Perfect Balance I know that it is money well spent - and my body definitely appreciates it!... (Show more)

I used Perfect Balance for osteopath treatment after visiting different physio's local to where I live. As it was not my first visit for health care I was slightly sceptical, however I was put at ease and after my first consultation I had a plan detailing what needs to be done with time frames around them. I feel 100% better after just four treatments and will certainly recommend Perfect Balance for their customer service and treatment. Thank you!... (Show more)

I was working on a film in stunts at the time and twisted my ankle really bad. A friend recommended Perfect Balance Clinic to me and I have to say I was really impressed by the help I received. My sprain wasn't a common issue which made things worse and on top of that I had to get back to work. Thankfully the guys at Perfect Balance Clinic got me through it and I was able to get back to work. My treatments continued and as I began to get stronger they implemented a number of techniques that I haven't used before, which was a nice experience. Being very active with my job it was vital I got my strength back to what it was and credit where credit is due I am now performing back to my top standard. I definitely recommend anyone with an injury to visit the clinic. Thanks again guys Adam... (Show more)
