Three ways in, and none of them is a waiting list

Ring and speak to someone in the clinic, send the form below, or ask for the free fifteen-minute call if you would rather find out whether it is worth coming in at all. Whichever you choose, you will hear back the same working day.

Enquiry

Tell us where it hurts

Five questions. We reply the same working day with two or three appointment times — we do not put you into a queue and we do not pass your details to anyone.

We use these details only to arrange your appointment. Nothing clinical is stored until you attend. See our privacy notice; ICO registration ZA486203.

Saturday8.30am – 1.30pm
SundayClosed

Two same-day slots are held back each weekday for acute problems — ring before 10am and ask. There is no out-of-hours service: if something cannot wait until the morning, that is a matter for 111 or A&E, not a physiotherapist.

Getting here

4 Alma Street, Kelham Island

Locality plan showing the clinic on Alma Street, the visitor car park to the north, and Shalesmoor tram stop to the south-west

By car

Six free marked bays directly outside, on the north side of Alma Street. If they are full, the Kelham Island visitor car park is 90 seconds' walk. There is no permit zone and no charge at any time.

By tram and bus

Shalesmoor is the nearest Supertram stop — four minutes on foot, level the whole way. The 7, 8 and 8a stop on Corporation Street, two minutes away.

Access

Ground floor throughout, no step from the pavement, and a door wide enough for a wheelchair or crutches. Accessible WC. If you would rather someone met you at the car, say so when you book — it is not an imposition, it is a Tuesday.

Before you ring

Next assessment: Thursday, 7.30am

You do not need a referral Not from a GP, not from the NHS MSK service, not from a consultant. Booking privately needs nothing but a phone call.
If you are claiming on insurance Have your policy number to hand. AXA Health needs a pre-authorisation number first; Bupa members go through Direct Access for a code. Ring us if it gets confusing — we do this every day.
Assessment £72, and that is the lot No booking fee, no card fee, no supplement. If we decide physiotherapy is not the answer you pay for the assessment and nothing further.
Free fifteen-minute call Not sure it is worth coming in? Ask for the call. A clinician will listen and tell you honestly — including if the answer is a GP.

Urgent symptoms — loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the saddle area, sudden severe weakness in both legs, or a limb that is cold, pale and painless — are red flags. Do not book an appointment. Go to A&E or call 111 the same day.
