I went to see Liam for advise for my knee, which I have been struggling with for a few years, I was told by the hospital I would be needing a knee replacement, which I didn’t want to go down that route at this time in my life. Liam gave me exercises to strengthen the knee, which I have been following his advise, my aim was to be able to go out with friends for walk and possibly get back to running, today I did my first park run in along time which is a big achievement how was a year ago I highly recommended Liam

I went to Liam with a suspected knee injury which he quickly discovered was due to a weak hip flexor. With my goal of completing my first marathon Liam gave me plenty of exercises to strengthen this area and a marathon training plan to get me over the line along with plenty of tips throughout our sessions. Would definitely recommend! Thanks!

Had my ACL reconstructed a year ago now and was moving back to uni as it had happened during the summer. I was looking to get back to basketball and was in need of a sports physio. Thankfully i found Liam who from the start was very comprehensive and helped me through till now, where i am just back to playing basketball, a year on. By far the best physio I’ve ever seen and overall just an amazing guy.

I would highly recommend Liam, he has been instrumental in my recovery from quite painful plantar fasciitis. From the very start he has been very professional and friendly. Over a course of 6 months he has given me support and a steadily developing physio program to get from being barely able to run at all back up to almost half marathon distance once more. I am very grateful for all his help.

I have had reason to visit several physiotherapists over my 63 years. I am highly delighted that my podiatrist recommended Liam – what a find! Initially I visited Liam for a ‘bike fit’. I spent a very productive and educational session with him, having my seating position assessed. I received a full report afterwards with notes on the adjustments that had been made. Not only has this improved my day to day cycling performance, I use these measurements when hiring bikes, to ensure that I have ‘just the right’ fit. During this visit it became clear that Liam would be able to help with managing my arthritis symptoms. I now see him regularly. The muscle strength and confidence that I have gained has been life changing. Liam is knowledgeable, informative and professional. I have found him to be gentle yet challenging, whilst being encouraging and supportive too. He is simply a fine young man, who even fit a ‘cry for help’ home visit into a busy day. After he'd left, my son who, had been upstairs studying for his sports degree, commented: ‘Wow – he knows his stuff doesn’t he!’ Should you be wondering if Liam is the right physio for you, whatever your issue – I have absolutely no doubt that he is.

I’m a very keen runner and have had some severe injuries take me away from what I love. Liam’s eye for detail and biological knowledge helped me identify the issue early and work to resolve it. Would definitely recommend Liam if you want an experienced physio with lots of sports specific knowledge!

Liam was very professional and well informed with my bike fit, and he helped adjust my bike to my request of optimum balance between comfort and an aerodynamic position. I would highly recommend Liam as a physiotherapist and a bike fitter.

Really enjoyed my clinical bike fit with Liam Newton. He was knowledgeable, expert, kind and genuinely interested. I learnt a lot about my knee injury and how to keep my knee strong, which was very helpful. I’ve just had a fantastic ride to Stonehenge on my newly fitted bike. It felt really comfortable and powerful. Thank you very much.
