Blackberry Clinic receives glowing feedback!

I first went to The Blackberry Clinic after hurting my hip in a skiing accident. I had a couple of physio sessions where I was told it was likely to be a bone problem. My physio was right, and after having hip surgery I went straight back to the clinic where I am now having sessions again to build up the strength and mobility in the muscles around my hip. The physio is so professional, as is everyone there and I have every faith she will have me back on track in no time!
